Jeremiah 39:8-12
8And the Chaldeans burned the king’s house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem. 9Then Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to him, with the rest of the people that remained.1 10But Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.23
11Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard, saying,45 12Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee.6
