Jeremiah 39:3-13
3that allH3605 the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 in, and satH3427 in the middleH8432 gateH8179, even Nergal-sharezerH5371, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim, Rab-sarisH7249, Nergal-sharezerH5371, Rab-magH7248, with allH3605 the restH7611 of the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
4And it cameH1961 to passH1961 that when ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and allH3605 the menH376 of warH4421 sawH7200 them, then they fledH1272, and wentH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the cityH5892 by nightH3915, by the wayH1870 of the king’sH4428 gardenH1588, by the gateH8179 betwixt the twoH4480 wallsH2346: and he wentH3318 outH3318 the wayH1870 of the ArabahH6160.
5But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 afterH310 them, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and when they had takenH3947 him, they broughtH5927 him upH5927 to NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574, and he gaveH3947 judgmentH4941 uponH413 him.
6Then the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 in RiblahH7247 beforeH5869 his eyesH5869: also the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 allH3605 the noblesH2715 of JudahH3063.
7Moreover he putH935 outH935 Zedekiah’sH6667 eyesH5869, and boundH631 him in fettersH5178, to carryH935 him to BabylonH894.
8And the ChaldeansH3778 burnedH8313 the king’sH4428 houseH1004, and the housesH1004 of the peopleH5971, with fireH784, and brake downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389.
9Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carriedH1540 awayH1540 captiveH1540 intoH1540 BabylonH894 the residue of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the cityH5892, the desertersH5307 also, that fellH5307 awayH1540 to him, and the residue of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604.
10But NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 of the poorH1800 of the peopleH5971, whichH834 had nothingH369, in the landH776 of JudahH3063, and gaveH5414 them vineyardsH3754 and fieldsH3010 at the sameH1931 time.
11NowH7227 NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 gaveH6680 chargeH5921 concerning JeremiahH3414 to NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, sayingH559,
12TakeH3947 him, and lookH5869 wellH3651 to him, and doH6213 him noH408 harmH7451; but doH6213 unto him evenH3588 as he shall sayH1696 unto thee.
13SoH7971 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 sentH7971, and Nebushazban, Rab-sarisH7249, and Nergal-sharezerH5371, Rab-magH7248, and allH3605 the chief officers of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894;
