2 Kings 25:1-3

1In the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon advanced against Jerusalem with his entire army. They laid siege to the city and built a siege wall against it all around.

2The city was under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.

3By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was so severe in the city that the common people had no food.
