1 H8671 And it came to pass in the ninth H8141 year H4427 of his reign, H6224 in the tenth H2320 month, H6218 in the tenth H2320 day of the month, H5019 that Nebuchadnezzar H4428 king H894 of Babylon H935 came, H2428 he and all his army, H3389 against Jerusalem, H2583 and encamped H1129 against it; and they built H1785 forts H5439 against it round about.

2 H5892 So the city H935 was besieged H6249 unto the eleventh H8141 year H4428 of king H6667 Zedekiah.

3 H8672 On the ninth H2320 day of the fourth month H7458 the famine H2388 was sore H5892 in the city, H3899 so that there was no bread H5971 for the people H776 of the land.

4 H1234 Then a breach H5892 was made in the city, H582 and all the men H4421 of war H3915 fled by night H1870 by the way H8179 of the gate H2346 between the two walls, H4428 which was by the king's H1588 garden H3778 (now the Chaldeans H5892 were against the city H5439 round about); H3212 and the king went H1870 by the way H6160 of the Arabah.

5 H2428 But the army H3778 of the Chaldeans H7291 pursued H310 after H4428 the king, H5381 and overtook H6160 him in the plains H3405 of Jericho; H2428 and all his army H6327 was scattered from him.

6 H8610 Then they took H4428 the king, H5927 and carried him up H4428 unto the king H894 of Babylon H7247 to Riblah; H1696 and they gave H4941 judgment upon him.

7 H7819 And they slew H1121 the sons H6667 of Zedekiah H5869 before his eyes, H5786 and put out H5869 the eyes H6667 of Zedekiah, H631 and bound H5178 him in fetters, H935 and carried H894 him to Babylon.

8 H2549 Now in the fifth H2320 month, H7651 on the seventh H2320 day of the month, H6240 which was the nineteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H5019 Nebuchadnezzar, H4428 king H894 of Babylon, H935 came H5018 Nebuzaradan H7227 the captain H2876 of the guard, H5650 a servant H4428 of the king H894 of Babylon, H3389 unto Jerusalem.

9 H8313 And he burnt H1004 the house H3068 of Jehovah, H4428 and the king's H1004 house; H1004 and all the houses H3389 of Jerusalem, H1419 even every great H1004 house, H8313 burnt H784 he with fire.

10 H2428 And all the army H3778 of the Chaldeans, H7227 that were with the captain H2876 of the guard, H5422 brake down H2346 the walls H3389 of Jerusalem H5439 round about.

11 H3499 And the residue H5971 of the people H7604 that were left H5892 in the city, H5307 and those that fell away, H4428 that fell to the king H894 of Babylon, H3499 and the residue H1995 of the multitude, H5018 did Nebuzaradan H7227 the captain H2876 of the guard H1540 carry away H5307 captive.

12 H7227 But the captain H2876 of the guard H7604 left H1803 of the poorest H776 of the land H3755 to be vinedressers H3009 and husbandmen.

13 H5982 And the pillars H5178 of brass H1004 that were in the house H3068 of Jehovah, H4350 and the bases H5178 and the brazen H3220 sea H1004 that were in the house H3068 of Jehovah, H3778 did the Chaldeans H7665 break in pieces, H5375 and carried H5178 the brass H894 of them to Babylon.

14 H5518 And the pots, H3257 and the shovels, H4212 and the snuffers, H3709 and the spoons, H3627 and all the vessels H5178 of brass H8334 wherewith they ministered, H3947 took they away.

15 H4289 And the firepans, H4219 and the basins, H2091 that which was of gold, H2091 in gold, H3701 and that which was of silver, H3701 in silver, H7227 the captain H2876 of the guard H3947 took away.

16 H8147 The two H5982 pillars, H259 the one H3220 sea, H4350 and the bases, H8010 which Solomon H6213 had made H1004 for the house H3068 of Jehovah, H5178 the brass H3627 of all these vessels H3808 was without H4948 weight.

17 H6967 The height H259 of the one H5982 pillar H8083 was eighteen H520 cubits, H3805 and a capital H5178 of brass H6967 was upon it; and the height H3805 of the capital H7969 was three H520 cubits, H7639 with network H7416 and pomegranates H3805 upon the capital H5439 round about, H5178 all of brass: H8145 and like unto these had the second H5982 pillar H7639 with network.

18 H7227 And the captain H2876 of the guard H3947 took H8304 Seraiah H7218 the chief H3548 priest, H6846 and Zephaniah H4932 the second H3548 priest, H7969 and the three H8104 keepers H5592 of the threshold:

19 H5892 and out of the city H3947 he took H259 an H5631 officer H6496 that was set H582 over the men H4421 of war; H2568 and five H582 men H7200 of them that saw H4428 the king's H7200 face, who were H4672 found H5892 in the city; H5608 and the scribe, H8269 the captain H6635 of the host, H6633 who mustered H5971 the people H776 of the land; H8346 and threescore H376 men H5971 of the people H776 of the land, H4672 that were found H5892 in the city.

20 H5018 And Nebuzaradan H7227 the captain H2876 of the guard H3947 took H3212 them, and brought H4428 them to the king H894 of Babylon H7247 to Riblah.

21 H4428 And the king H894 of Babylon H5221 smote H4191 them, and put them to death H7247 at Riblah H776 in the land H2574 of Hamath. H3063 So Judah H1540 was carried away H127 captive out of his land.

22 H5971 And as for the people H7604 that were left H776 in the land H3063 of Judah, H5019 whom Nebuchadnezzar H4428 king H894 of Babylon H7604 had left, H1436 even over them he made Gedaliah H1121 the son H296 of Ahikam, H1121 the son H8227 of Shaphan, H6485 governor.

23 H8269 Now when all the captains H2428 of the forces, H582 they and their men, H8085 heard H4428 that the king H894 of Babylon H1436 had made Gedaliah H6485 governor, H935 they came H1436 to Gedaliah H4709 to Mizpah, H3458 even Ishmael H1121 the son H5418 of Nethaniah, H3110 and Johanan H1121 the son H7143 of Kareah, H8304 and Seraiah H1121 the son H8576 of Tanhumeth H5200 the Netophathite, H2970 and Jaazaniah H1121 the son H4602 of the Maacathite, H582 they and their men.

24 H1436 And Gedaliah H7650 sware H582 to them and to their men, H559 and said H3372 unto them, Fear H5650 not because of the servants H3778 of the Chaldeans: H3427 dwell H776 in the land, H5647 and serve H4428 the king H894 of Babylon, H3190 and it shall be well with you.

25 H7637 But it came to pass in the seventh H2320 month, H3458 that Ishmael H1121 the son H5418 of Nethaniah, H1121 the son H476 of Elishama, H2233 of the seed H4410 royal, H935 came, H6235 and ten H582 men H5221 with him, and smote H1436 Gedaliah, H4191 so that he died, H3064 and the Jews H3778 and the Chaldeans H4709 that were with him at Mizpah.

26 H5971 And all the people, H6996 both small H1419 and great, H8269 and the captains H2428 of the forces, H6965 arose, H935 and came H4714 to Egypt; H3372 for they were afraid H6440 of H3778 the Chaldeans.

27 H7651 And it came to pass in the seven H7970 and thirtieth H8141 year H1546 of the captivity H3078 of Jehoiachin H4428 king H3063 of Judah, H8147 in the twelfth H2320 month, H7651 on the seven H6242 and twentieth H2320 day of the month, H192 that Evil-merodach H4428 king H894 of Babylon, H8141 in the year H4427 that he began to reign, H5375 did lift up H7218 the head H3078 of Jehoiachin H4428 king H3063 of Judah H1004 out of prison;

28 H1696 and he spake H2896 kindly H5414 to him, and set H3678 his throne H3678 above the throne H4428 of the kings H894 that were with him in Babylon,

29 H8132 and changed H3608 his prison H899 garments. H398 And Jehoiachin did eat H3899 bread H6440 before H8548 him continually H3117 all the days H2416 of his life:

30 H737 and for his allowance, H8548 there was a continual H737 allowance H5414 given H4428 him of the king, H3117 every H3117 day H1697 a portion, H3117 all the days H2416 of his life.
