2 Kings 25:4-7

4The enemy broke through the city walls, and all the soldiers tried to escape. They left the city during the night. They went through the gate between the two walls that is near the king’s garden. (The Babylonians were all around the city.) Then they headed for the Jordan Valley.

5But the Babylonian army chased after the king. They caught up with him in the plains of Jericho, and his entire army deserted him.

6They captured the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where he passed sentence on him.

7Zedekiah’s sons were executed while Zedekiah was forced to watch. The king of Babylon then had Zedekiah’s eyes put out, bound him in bronze chains, and carried him off to Babylon.
