- It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it around it.
- So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
- On the ninth day of the [fourth] month the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
- Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war [fled] by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden (now the Chaldeans were against the city around it); and [the king] went by the way of the Arabah.
- But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
- Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment on him.
- They killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
- Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem.
- He burnt the house of Yahweh, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burnt he with fire.
- All the army of the Chaldeans, who were [with] the captain of the guard, broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
- The residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry away captive.
- But the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
- The pillars of brass that were in the house of Yahweh, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of Yahweh, did the Chaldeans break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
- The pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered, took they away.
- The fire pans, and the basins, that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.
- The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases, which Solomon had made for the house of Yahweh, the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
- The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a capital of brass was on it; and the height of the capital was three cubits, with network and pomegranates on the capital around it, all of brass: and like to these had the second pillar with network.
- The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold:
- and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and five men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe, 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.
- Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
- The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
- As for the people who were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, governor.
- Now when all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
- Gedaliah swore to them and to their men, and said to them, "Don't be afraid because of the servants of the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you."
- But it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal seed came, and ten men with him, and struck Gedaliah, so that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
- All the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose, and came to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
- It happened in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
- and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
- and changed his prison garments. [Jehoiachin] ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
- and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him of the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.

- Factum est autem anno nono regni ejus, mense decimo, decima die mensis, venit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, ipse et omnis exercitus ejus in Jerusalem, et circumdederunt eam : et exstruxerunt in circuitu ejus munitiones.
- Et clausa est civitas atque vallata usque ad undecimum annum regis Sedeciæ,
- nona die mensis : prævaluitque fames in civitate, nec erat panis populo terræ.
- Et interrupta est civitas : et omnes viri bellatores nocte fugerunt per viam portæ, quæ est inter duplicem murum ad hortum regis. Porro Chaldæi obsidebant in circuitu civitatem. Fugit itaque Sedecias per viam, quæ ducit ad campestria solitudinis.
- Et persecutus est exercitus Chaldæorum regem, comprehenditque eum in planitie Jericho : et omnes bellatores, qui erant cum eo, dispersi sunt, et reliquerunt eum.
- Apprehensum ergo regem duxerunt ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha : qui locutus est cum eo judicium.
- Filios autem Sedeciæ occidit coram eo, et oculos ejus effodit, vinxitque eum catenis, et adduxit in Babylonem.
- Mense quinto, septima die mensis, ipse est annus nonusdecimus regis Babylonis : venit Nabuzardan princeps exercitus, servus regis Babylonis, in Jerusalem.
- Et succendit domum Domini, et domum regis : et domos Jerusalem, omnemque domum combussit igni.
- Et muros Jerusalem in circuitu destruxit omnis exercitus Chaldæorum, qui erat cum principe militum.
- Reliquam autem populi partem, quæ remanserat in civitate, et perfugas, qui transfugerant ad regem Babylonis, et reliquum vulgus transtulit Nabuzardan princeps militiæ.
- Et de pauperibus terræ reliquit vinitores et agricolas.
- Columnas autem æreas, quæ erant in templo Domini, et bases, et mare æreum, quod erat in domo Domini, confregerunt Chaldæi, et transtulerunt æs omne in Babylonem.
- Ollas quoque æreas, et trullas, et tridentes, et scyphos, et mortariola, et omnia vasa ærea, in quibus ministrabant, tulerunt.
- Necnon et thuribula, et phialas : quæ aurea, aurea : et quæ argentea, argentea tulit princeps militiæ,
- id est, columnas duas, mare unum, et bases quas fecerat Salomon in templo Domini : non erat pondus æris omnium vasorum.
- Decem et octo cubitos altitudinis habebat columna una : et capitellum æreum super se altitudinis trium cubitorum : et retiaculum, et malogranata super capitellum columnæ, omnia ærea : similem et columna secunda habebat ornatum.
- Tulit quoque princeps militiæ Saraiam sacerdotem primum, et Sophoniam sacerdotem secundum, et tres janitores.
- Et de civitate eunuchum unum, qui erat præfectus super bellatores viros : et quinque viros de his, qui steterant coram rege, quos reperit in civitate : et Sopher principem exercitus, qui probabat tyrones de populo terræ : et sexaginta viros e vulgo, qui inventi fuerant in civitate.
- Quos tollens Nabuzardan princeps militum, duxit ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha.
- Percussitque eos rex Babylonis, et interfecit eos in Reblatha in terra Emath : et translatus est Juda de terra sua.
- Populo autem, qui relictus erat in terra Juda, quem dimiserat Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, præfecit Godoliam filium Ahicam filii Saphan.
- Quod cum audissent omnes duces militum, ipsi et viri qui erant cum eis, videlicet quod constituisset rex Babylonis Godoliam, venerunt ad Godoliam in Maspha, Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, et Johanan filius Caree, et Saraia filius Thanehumeth Netophathites, et Jezonias filius Maachathi, ipsi et socii eorum.
- Juravitque Godolias ipsis et sociis eorum, dicens : Nolite timere servire Chaldæis : manete in terra, et servite regi Babylonis, et bene erit vobis.
- Factum est autem in mense septimo, venit Ismahel filius Nathaniæ filii Elisama de semine regio, et decem viri cum eo : percusseruntque Godoliam, qui et mortuus est : sed et Judæos et Chaldæos, qui erant cum eo in Maspha.
- Consurgensque omnis populus a parvo usque ad magnum, et principes militum, venerunt in Ægyptum timentes Chaldæos.
- Factum est vero in anno trigesimo septimo transmigrationis Joachin regis Juda, mense duodecimo, vigesima septima die mensis : sublevavit Evilmerodach rex Babylonis, anno quo regnare cœperat, caput Joachin regis Juda de carcere.
- Et locutus est ei benigne : et posuit thronum ejus super thronum regum, qui erant cum eo in Babylone.
- Et mutavit vestes ejus, quas habuerat in carcere, et comedebat panem semper in conspectu ejus cunctis diebus vitæ suæ.
- Annonam quoque constituit ei sine intermissione, quæ et dabatur ei a rege per singulos dies omnibus diebus vitæ suæ.

- And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
- And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
- And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
- And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
- And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
- So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
- And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
- And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
- And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
- And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
- Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard carry away.
- But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
- And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
- And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
- And the firepans, and the bowls, and such things as were of gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.
- The two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the LORD; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
- The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and the chapiter upon it was brass: and the height of the chapiter three cubits; and the wreathen work, and pomegranates upon the chapiter round about, all of brass: and like unto these had the second pillar with wreathen work.
- And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
- And out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king's presence, which were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, which mustered the people of the land, and threescore men of the people of the land that were found in the city:
- And Nebuzar-adan captain of the guard took these, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah:
- And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.
- And as for the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler.
- And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethahiah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
- And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
- But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
- And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.
- And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
- And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;
- And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.
- And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
