Jeremiah 39:1-7

1And it cameH935 to pass when JerusalemH3389 was taken, in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, cameH935 Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and all his armyH2428 against JerusalemH3389, and they besieged it.

2In the eleventh yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667, in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, on the ninth of the monthH2320, the cityH5892 was brokenH1234 into;

3and all the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 in, and satH3427 in the middleH8432 gateH8179: Nergal-sharezer, Samgar-nebu, Sarsechim, chiefH8269 chamberlain, Nergal-sharezer, chiefH8269 magian, and all the restH7611 of the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.

4And it came to pass when ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and all the menH376 of warH4421 sawH7200 them, that they fledH1272, and wentH3318 forthH3318 out of the cityH5892 by nightH3915, by the wayH1870 of the king's gardenH1588, by the gateH8179 between the two wallsH2346; and he wentH3318 out the wayH1870 of the plainH6160.

5And the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 after them, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405; and they tookH3947 him, and broughtH5927 him up to NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, unto RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574; and he pronounced judgmentH4941 upon him.

6And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slaughteredH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 in RiblahH7247 before his eyesH5869, and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slaughteredH7819 all the nobles of JudahH3063;

7and he put out the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667, and boundH631 him with chains of brass, to carry him to BabylonH894.
