And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he, and all his hostH2428, against JerusalemH3389, and pitchedH2583 against it; and they builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it round aboutH5439.2And the cityH5892 was besiegedH935 H4692 unto the eleventhH6249 H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667.3And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.

4And the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fled by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between two wallsH2346, which is by the king'sH4428 gardenH1588: (now the ChaldeesH3778 were against the cityH5892 round aboutH5439:) and the king wentH3212 the wayH1870 toward the plainH6160.5And the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778 pursuedH7291 afterH310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 him in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and all his armyH2428 were scatteredH6327 from him.6So they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and brought him upH5927 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247; and they gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him.7And they slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869, and put outH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667, and boundH631 him with fettersH5178 of brassH5178, and carriedH935 him to BabylonH894.

8And in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, on the seventhH7651 day of the monthH2320, which is the nineteenthH8672 H6240 H8141 yearH8141 of kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, a servantH5650 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, unto JerusalemH3389:9And he burntH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and every greatH1419 man's houseH1004 burntH8313 he with fireH784.10And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, brake downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.11Now the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 that were leftH7604 in the cityH5892, and the fugitivesH5307 that fell awayH5307 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, with the remnantH3499 of the multitudeH1995, did NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carry awayH1540.12But the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 of the poorH1803 of the landH776 to be vinedressersH3755 and husbandmenH3009 H1461.

13And the pillarsH5982 of brassH5178 that were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the basesH4350, and the brasenH5178 seaH3220 that was in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, did the ChaldeesH3778 break in piecesH7665, and carriedH5375 the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894.14And the potsH5518, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 wherewith they ministeredH8334, took they awayH3947.15And the firepansH4289, and the bowlsH4219, and such things as were of goldH2091, in goldH2091, and of silverH3701, in silverH3701, the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 took awayH3947.16The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and the basesH4350 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was withoutH3808 weightH4948.17The heightH6967 of the oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083 H6240 cubitsH520, and the chapiterH3805 upon it was brassH5178: and the heightH6967 of the chapiterH3805 threeH7969 cubitsH520; and the wreathen workH7639, and pomegranatesH7416 upon the chapiterH3805 round aboutH5439, all of brassH5178: and like unto these had the secondH8145 pillarH5982 with wreathen workH7639.

18And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592:19And out of the cityH5892 he tookH3947 anH259 officerH5631 that was setH6496 over the menH582 of warH4421, and fiveH2568 menH582 of them that wereH7200 in the king'sH4428 presenceH6440, which were foundH4672 in the cityH5892, and the principalH8269 scribeH5608 of the hostH6635, which musteredH6633 the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and threescoreH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776 that were foundH4672 in the cityH5892:20And NebuzaradanH5018 captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 these, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247:21And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 them, and slewH4191 them at RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574. So JudahH3063 was carried awayH1540 out of their landH127.

22And as for the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the landH776 of JudahH3063, whom NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had leftH7604, even over them he made GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, rulerH6485.23And when all the captainsH8269 of the armiesH2428, they and their menH582, heardH8085 that the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had made GedaliahH1436 governorH6485, there cameH935 to GedaliahH1436 to MizpahH4709, even IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of CareahH7143, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of TanhumethH8576 the NetophathiteH5200, and JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of a MaachathiteH4602, they and their menH582.24And GedaliahH1436 swareH7650 to them, and to their menH582, and saidH559 unto them, FearH3372 not to be the servantsH5650 of the ChaldeesH3778: dwellH3427 in the landH776, and serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894; and it shall be wellH3190 with you.25But it came to pass in the seventhH7637 monthH2320, that IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, the sonH1121 of ElishamaH476, of the seedH2233 royalH4410, cameH935, and tenH6235 menH582 with him, and smoteH5221 GedaliahH1436, that he diedH4191, and the JewsH3064 and the ChaldeesH3778 that were with him at MizpahH4709.26And all the peopleH5971, both smallH6996 and greatH1419, and the captainsH8269 of the armiesH2428, aroseH6965, and cameH935 to EgyptH4714: for they were afraidH3372 ofH6440 the ChaldeesH3778.

27And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the twelfthH8147 H6240 monthH2320, on the sevenH7651 and twentiethH6242 day of the monthH2320, that EvilmerodachH192 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 in the yearH8141 that he began to reignH4427 did lift upH5375 the headH7218 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 out of prisonH1004 H3608;28And he spakeH1696 kindlyH2896 to him, and setH5414 his throneH3678 above the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that were with him in BabylonH894;29And changedH8132 his prisonH3608 garmentsH899: and he did eatH398 breadH3899 continuallyH8548 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.30And his allowanceH737 was a continualH8548 allowanceH737 givenH5414 him of the kingH4428, a dailyH3117 H3117 rateH1697 for every dayH3117, all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
