2 Kings 25:4-10
41Then the cityH5892 was brokenH1234 into, and allH3605 the menH376 of warH4421 fled by nightH3915 by wayH1870 of the gateH8179 betweenH996 the two wallsH2346 besideH5921 2the king’sH4428 gardenH1588, though the ChaldeansH3778 were allH5439 aroundH5439 the cityH5892. And 3they wentH1980 by wayH1870 of the ArabahH6160. 5But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 the kingH4428 and overtookH5381 him in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405 and allH3605 his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327 from him. 6Then 4they capturedH8610 the kingH4428 and 5broughtH5927 him to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 at 6RiblahH7247, and 7he passedH1696 sentenceH1696 on him. 78They slaughteredH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869, then 9putH5786 out the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667 and boundH631 him with bronzeH5178 fettersH5178 and broughtH935 him to BabylonH894.
810Now on the seventhH7651 day of the 11fifthH2549 monthH2320, whichH1931 was the nineteenthH8672H6240 yearH8141 of KingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019, kingH4428 of BabylonH894, NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, a servantH5650 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 to JerusalemH3389. 912He burnedH8313 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, 13the king’sH4428 houseH1004, and allH3605 the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389; even everyH3605 greatH1419 houseH1004 he burnedH8313 with fireH784. 10So allH3605 the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 whoH834 were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 14brokeH5422 downH5422 the wallsH2346 aroundH5439 JerusalemH3389.
