Jeremiah 52:24-30

24The captain of the guards also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of the second rank, and the three doorkeepers.

25From the city he took a court official who had been appointed over the warriors; seven trusted royal aides found in the city; the secretary of the commander of the army, who enlisted the people of the land for military duty; and sixty men from the common people who were found within the city.

26Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guards, took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.

27The king of Babylon put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah went into exile from its land.

28These are the people Nebuchadnezzar deported: in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;

29in his eighteenth year, 832 people from Jerusalem;

30in Nebuchadnezzar’s twenty-third year, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guards, deported 745 Jews. Altogether, 4,600 people were deported.
