41Now it cameH1961 about in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, on the tenthH6218 day of the tenthH6224 monthH2320, that NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he and allH3605 his armyH2428, againstH5921 JerusalemH3389, campedH2583 againstH5921 it and builtH1129 a 2siegeH1785 wallH1785 allH5439 aroundH5439 3it. 54So the cityH5892 was under siegeH4692 untilH5704 the eleventhH6249H6240 yearH8141 of KingH4428 ZedekiahH6667. 6On the ninthH8672 day of the 5fourthH7243 monthH2320 the 6famineH7458 was so severeH2388 in the cityH5892 that there was noH3808 foodH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776. 7Then the cityH5892 was 7brokenH1234 into, and allH3605 the 8menH376 of warH4421 fledH1272 and wentH3318 forthH3318 from the cityH5892 at nightH3915 by wayH1870 of the gateH8179 betweenH996 the two wallsH2346 whichH834 was by the king’sH4428 gardenH1588, though the ChaldeansH3778 were 910allH5439 aroundH5439 the cityH5892. And they wentH1980 by wayH1870 of the ArabahH6160. 8But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 the kingH4428 and 11overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the 12plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405, and allH3605 his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327 from him. 9Then they capturedH8610 the kingH4428 and 13broughtH5927 him up to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 at 14RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of 15HamathH2574, and he 16passedH1696 sentenceH1696 on him. 10The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 17slaughteredH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869, and he alsoH1571 slaughteredH7819 allH3605 the 18princesH8269 of JudahH3063 in RiblahH7247. 11Then he 19blindedH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667; and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 boundH631 him with bronzeH5178 fettersH5178 and broughtH935 him to BabylonH894 and putH5414 him in prisonH1004H6486 untilH5704 the dayH3117 of his deathH4194.
