2 Kings 24:20-25:7

  20 H5921 For through H639 the anger H3068 of the LORD H1961 it came H3389 to pass in Jerusalem H3063 and Judah, H5704 until H7993 he had cast H6440 them out from his presence, H6667 that Zedekiah H4775 rebelled H4428 against the king H894 of Babylon.

  1 H1961 And it came H8671 to pass in the ninth H8141 year H4427 of his reign, H6218 in the tenth H2320 month, H6218 in the tenth H2320 day of the month, H5019 that Nebuchadnezzar H4428 king H894 of Babylon H935 came, H3605 he, and all H2428 his host, H5921 against H3389 Jerusalem, H2583 and pitched H5921 against H1129 it; and they built H1785 forts H5921 against H5439 it round about.

  2 H5892 And the city H935 was besieged H4692 H6249 to the eleventh H6240 H8141 year H4428 of king H6667 Zedekiah.

  3 H8672 And on the ninth H2320 day of the fourth month H7458 the famine H2388 prevailed H5892 in the city, H3808 and there was no H3899 bread H5971 for the people H776 of the land.

  4 H5892 And the city H1234 was broken H3605 up, and all H582 the men H4421 of war H3915 fled by night H1870 by the way H8179 of the gate H996 between H2346 two walls, H834 which H4428 is by the king’s H1588 garden: H3778 (now the Chaldees H5921 were against H5892 the city H5439 round H3212 about:) and the king went H1870 the way H1870 toward H6160 the plain.

  5 H2428 And the army H3778 of the Chaldees H7291 pursued H310 after H4428 the king, H5381 and overtook H6160 him in the plains H3405 of Jericho: H3605 and all H2428 his army H6327 were scattered from him.

  6 H8610 So they took H4428 the king, H5927 and brought H4428 him up to the king H894 of Babylon H7247 to Riblah; H1696 and they gave H4941 judgment on him.

  7 H7819 And they slew H1121 the sons H6667 of Zedekiah H5869 before his eyes, H5786 and put H5869 out the eyes H6667 of Zedekiah, H631 and bound H5178 him with fetters H5178 of brass, H935 and carried H894 him to Babylon.
