Jeremiah 52

1ZedekiahH6667wasoneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was HamutalH2537 the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of LibnahH3841.1 2And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had doneH6213. 3For throughH5921 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, till he had cast them outH7993 from his presenceH6440, that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894. 4And 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 builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it on every sideH5439. 5SoH935 the cityH5892 was besiegedH4692 to the eleventhH6249H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667. 6And in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, in the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320, the famineH7458 was greatH2388 in the cityH5892, so that there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776. 7Then the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fledH1272, and went forthH3318 from the cityH5892 by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between the two wallsH2346, which was by the king’sH4428 gardenH1588; (now the ChaldeansH3778 were by the cityH5892 on all sidesH5439:) and they wentH3212 by the wayH1870 of the plainH6160. 8But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291H310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405; and all his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327 from him. 9Then they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and carried himH5927 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574; where he gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him. 10And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869: he slewH7819 also all the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 in RiblahH7247. 11Then he put outH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667; and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 boundH631 him in chainsH5178, and carriedH935 him to BabylonH894, and putH5414 him in prisonH1004H6486 till the dayH3117 of his deathH4194.234

12Now in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218day of the monthH2320, which was the nineteenthH8672H6240H8141 yearH8141 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, who servedH5975H6440 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, into JerusalemH3389,56 13And burnedH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king’sH4428 houseH1004; and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and all the housesH1004 of the greatH1419 men, he burnedH8313 with fireH784: 14And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, broke downH5422 all the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 on every sideH5439. 15Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 certain of the poorH1803 of the peopleH5971, and the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the cityH5892, and those that fell awayH5307, that fellH5307 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and the restH3499 of the multitudeH527. 16But NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 certain of the poorH1803 of the landH776 for vinedressersH3755 and for farmersH3009. 17Also 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, the ChaldeansH3778 brokeH7665, and carriedH5375 all the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894. 18The caldronsH5518 also, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the bowlsH4219, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 by which they ministeredH8334, they took awayH3947.78 19And the basinsH5592, and the firepansH4289, and the bowlsH4219, and the caldronsH5518, and the lampstandsH4501, and the spoonsH3709, and the cupsH4518; that which was of goldH2091 in goldH2091, and that which was of silverH3701 in silverH3701, the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 took awayH3947.9 20The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and twelveH8147H6240 brasenH5178 bullsH1241 that were under the basesH4350, which kingH4428 SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was without weightH4948.10 21And concerning the pillarsH5982, the heightH6967 of oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083H6240 cubitsH520; and a bandH2339 of twelveH8147H6240 cubitsH520 surroundedH5437 it; and the thicknessH5672 of it was fourH702 fingersH676: it was hollowH5014.11 22And a capitalH3805 of brassH5178 was upon it; and the heightH6967 of oneH259 capitalH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, with networkH7639 and pomegranatesH7416 upon the capitalsH3805 aroundH5439, all of brassH5178. The secondH8145 pillarH5982 also and the pomegranatesH7416 were like these. 23And there were ninetyH8673 and sixH8337 pomegranatesH7416 on a sideH7307; and all the pomegranatesH7416 upon the networkH7639 were an hundredH3967 on all sidesH5439.

24And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592:12 25He tookH3947 also out of the cityH5892 anH259 eunuchH5631, who had the chargeH6496 of the menH582 of warH4421; and sevenH7651 menH582 of them that were nearH7200 the king’sH4428 personH6440, 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 midstH8432 of the cityH5892.1314 26So NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 them, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247. 27And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 them, and put them to deathH4191 in RiblahH7247 in the landH127 of HamathH2574. Thus JudahH3063 was carried away captiveH1540 out of his own landH776. 28This is the peopleH5971 whom NebuchadnezzarH5019 carried away captiveH1540: in the seventhH7651 yearH8141 threeH7969 thousandH505 JewsH3064 and threeH7969 and twentyH6242: 29In the eighteenthH8083H6240 yearH8141 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 he carried away captiveH1540 from JerusalemH3389 eightH8083 hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 personsH5315:15 30In the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 of the JewsH3064 sevenH7651 hundredH3967 and fortyH705 and fiveH2568 personsH5315: all the personsH5315 were fourH702 thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundredH3967.

31And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the twelfthH8147H6240 monthH2320, in the fiveH2568 and twentiethH6242 day of the monthH2320, that EvilmerodachH192 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 in the first yearH8141 of his reignH4438 lifted upH5375 the headH7218 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and brought himH3318 out of prisonH1004H3628, 32And spokeH1696 kindlyH2896 to him, and setH5414 his throneH3678 aboveH4605 the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that were with him in BabylonH894,16 33And changedH8138 his prisonH3608 garmentsH899: and he continuallyH8548 ateH398 breadH3899 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416. 34And for his foodH737, there was a continualH8548 dietH737 givenH5414 him of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, everyH3117 dayH3117 a portionH1697 until the dayH3117 of his deathH4194, all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.17
