4And it came to pass, when ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 sawH7200 them, and all the menH582 of warH4421, then they fledH1272, and wentH3318 out of the cityH5892 by nightH3915, by the wayH1870 of the king’sH4428 gardenH1588, by the gateH8179 between the two wallsH2346: and he went outH3318 the wayH1870 of the plainH6160. 5But the ChaldeansH3778’ armyH2428 pursuedH7291H310 them, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and when they had takenH3947 him, they brought himH5927 to NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574, where he gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him.1 6Then the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 in RiblahH7247 before his eyesH5869: also the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 all the noblesH2715 of JudahH3063. 7Moreover he put outH5786 Zedekiah’sH6667 eyesH5869, and boundH631 him with chainsH5178, to carryH935 him to BabylonH894.2 8And the ChaldeansH3778 burnedH8313 the king’sH4428 houseH1004, and the housesH1004 of the peopleH5971, with fireH784, and broke downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389. 9Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 into BabylonH894 the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the cityH5892, and those that fell awayH5307, that fellH5307 to him, with the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604.3 10But NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 of the poorH1800 of the peopleH5971, who had nothingH3972, in the landH776 of JudahH3063, and gaveH5414 them vineyardsH3754 and fieldsH3010 at the same timeH3117.45
