2 Kings 25:6-21

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. 18And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592:6 19And out of the cityH5892 he tookH3947 anH259 officerH5631 that was setH6496 over the menH582 of warH4421, and fiveH2568 menH582 of them that wereH7200 in the king’sH4428 presenceH6440, who were foundH4672 in the cityH5892, and the principalH8269 scribeH5608 of the hostH6635, who musteredH6633 the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and sixtyH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776 that were foundH4672 in the cityH5892:789 20And NebuzaradanH5018 captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 these, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247: 21And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 them, and slewH4191 them at RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574.
