2 Kings 25:1-17
1And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he, and all his armyH2428, against JerusalemH3389, and encampedH2583 against it; and they builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it on all sidesH5439. 2And the cityH5892 was besiegedH935H4692 to the eleventhH6249H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667. 3And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776. 4And the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fled by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between two wallsH2346, which is by the king’sH4428 gardenH1588: (now the ChaldeesH3778 were against the cityH5892 on all sidesH5439:) and the king wentH3212 the wayH1870 toward the plainH6160. 5And the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778 pursuedH7291H310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 him in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and all his armyH2428 were scatteredH6327 from him. 6So they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and brought himH5927 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247; and they pronouncedH1696 sentenceH4941 upon him.1 7And they slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869, and put outH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667, and boundH631 him with fettersH5178 of brassH5178, and carriedH935 him to BabylonH894.2
8And in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, on the seventhH7651day of the monthH2320, which is the nineteenthH8672H6240H8141 yearH8141 of kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, a servantH5650 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, to JerusalemH3389:3 9And he burntH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king’sH4428 houseH1004, and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and every greatH1419 man’s houseH1004 he burntH8313 with fireH784. 10And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, broke downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 on all sidesH5439. 11Now the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 that were leftH7604 in the cityH5892, and the fugitivesH5307 that fell awayH5307 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, with the remnantH3499 of the multitudeH1995, did NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carry awayH1540.4 12But the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 of the poorH1803 of the landH776 to be vinedressersH3755 and farmersH3009H1461. 13And the pillarsH5982 of brassH5178 that were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the basesH4350, and the brasenH5178 seaH3220 that was in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, did the ChaldeesH3778 break in piecesH7665, and carriedH5375 the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894. 14And the potsH5518, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 by which they ministeredH8334, they took awayH3947. 15And the firepansH4289, and the basinsH4219, and such things as were of goldH2091, in goldH2091, and of silverH3701, in silverH3701, the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 took awayH3947. 16The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and the basesH4350 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was beyondH3808 weightH4948.5 17The heightH6967 of the oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083H6240 cubitsH520, and the capitalH3805 upon it was brassH5178: and the heightH6967 of the capitalH3805 threeH7969 cubitsH520; and the wreathen workH7639, and pomegranatesH7416 upon the capitalH3805 aroundH5439, all of brassH5178: and like these had the secondH8145 pillarH5982 with wreathen workH7639.
