¹ Now in the ninth year of his reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, camped against it and built a siege wall all around^a Lit against itit. ² So the city was under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah. ³ On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land. ⁴ Then the city was broken into, and all the men of war fled by night by way of the gate between the two walls beside the king’s garden, though the Chaldeans were all around the city. And^bthey went by way of the Arabah. ⁵ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook him in the plains of Jericho and all his army was scattered from him. ⁶ Then they captured the king and brought him to the king of Babylon at Riblah, and^c Lit they spoke judgment with himhe passed sentence on him. ⁷ They slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, then put out the eyes of Zedekiah and bound him with bronze fetters and brought him to Babylon.	1 Ch2 36:17-20 Jer 39:1-7 Jer 21:2 Jer 34:1 Jer 34:2 Eze 24:2 Eze 21:22 3 Ki2 6:24 Ki2 6:25 Ljr 4:9 Ljr 4:10 4 Eze 33:21 Neh 3:15 6 Jer 34:21 Jer 34:22 Jer 32:4 Ki2 23:33 7 Jer 39:6 Jer 39:7 Eze 12:13
⁸ Now on the seventh day of the fifth month, which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem. ⁹ He burned the house of the LORD, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem; even every great house he burned with fire. ¹⁰ So all the army of the Chaldeans who were with the captain of the guard broke down the walls around Jerusalem. ¹¹ Then the rest of the people who were left in the city and the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babylon and the rest of the people, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away into exile. ¹² But the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and plowmen.	8 Jer 52:12 Jer 39:8-12 9 Ki1 9:8 Ch2 36:19 Psa 74:3-7 Amo 2:5 10 Ki2 14:13 Neh 1:3 11 Ch2 36:20 12 Ki2 24:14 Jer 40:7
¹³ Now the bronze pillars which were in the house of the LORD, and the stands and the bronze sea which were in the house of the LORD, the Chaldeans broke in pieces and carried the^d Lit bronze of thembronze to Babylon. ¹⁴ They took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the spoons, and all the bronze vessels which were used in temple service. ¹⁵ The captain of the guard also took away the firepans and the basins, what was fine gold and what was fine silver. ¹⁶ The two pillars, the one sea, and the stands which Solomon had made for the house of the LORD—the bronze of all these vessels was beyond weight. ¹⁷ The height of the one pillar was eighteen^e I.e. One cubit equals approx 18 in.cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was three^f I.e. One cubit equals approx 18 in.cubits, with a network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these with network.	13 Ki1 7:15-22 Ki2 20:17 Ch2 3:15-17 Ch2 36:18 Ki1 7:23-26 Ch2 4:2-4 14 Exo 27:3 Ki1 7:47-50 Ch2 4:16 16 Ki1 7:47 17 Ki1 7:15-22
¹⁸ Then the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest and Zephaniah the second priest, with the three^g Lit keepers of the doorofficers of the temple. ¹⁹ From the city he took one official who was overseer of the men of war, and five^hof the king’s advisers who were found in the city; and theⁱ Or scribe, a captainscribe of the captain of the army who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land who were found in the city. ²⁰ Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah. ²¹ Then the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath.
