2 Kings 25:8-12

8On the seventh day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard, an official of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem.

9He set fire to the temple of the Lord, the royal palace and all the houses of Jerusalem. Every important building he burned down.

10The whole Babylonian army under the commander of the imperial guard broke down the walls around Jerusalem.

11Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard carried into exile the people who remained in the city, along with the rest of the populace and those who had deserted to the king of Babylon.

12But the commander left behind some of the poorest people of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
