Jeremiah 52:4-11

41Now it came about in the ninth year of his reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, camped against it and built a 2siege wall all around 3it. 54So the city was under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah. 6On the ninth day of the 5fourth month the 6famine was so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land. 7Then the city was 7broken into, and all the 8men of war fled and went forth from the city at night by way of the gate between the two walls which was by the king’s garden, though the Chaldeans were 910all around the city. And they went by way of the Arabah. 8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and 11overtook Zedekiah in the 12plains of Jericho, and all his army was scattered from him. 9Then they captured the king and 13brought him up to the king of Babylon at 14Riblah in the land of 15Hamath, and he 16passed sentence on him. 10The king of Babylon 17slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also slaughtered all the 18princes of Judah in Riblah. 11Then he 19blinded the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him with bronze fetters and brought him to Babylon and put him in prison until the day of his death.
