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.
