And kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 reignedH4427 instead of ConiahH3659 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079, whom NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 made kingH4427 in the landH776 of JudahH3063.
But neither he, nor his servantsH5650, nor the peopleH5971 of the landH776, did hearkenH8085 unto the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414. {by…: Heb. by the hand of the prophet}
And ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 sentH7971 JehucalH3081 the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018 and ZephaniahH6846 the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4641 the priestH3548 to the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, PrayH6419 now unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430 for us.
Now JeremiahH3414 came inH935 and went outH3318 amongH8432 the peopleH5971: for they had not putH5414 him into prisonH1004+H3628.
Then Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428 was come forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714: and when the ChaldeansH3778 that besiegedH6696 JerusalemH3389 heardH8085 tidingsH8088 of them, they departedH5927 from JerusalemH3389.
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Thus shall ye sayH559 to the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sentH7971 you unto me to enquireH1875 of me; Behold, Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428, which is come forthH3318 to helpH5833 you, shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714 into their own landH776.
And the ChaldeansH3778 shall come againH7725, and fightH3898 against this cityH5892, and takeH3920 it, and burnH8313 it with fireH784.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; DeceiveH5377 not yourselvesH5315, sayingH559, The ChaldeansH3778 shall surelyH1980 departH3212 from us: for they shall not departH3212. {yourselves: Heb. your souls}
For though ye had smittenH5221 the whole armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 that fightH3898 against you, and there remainedH7604 but woundedH1856 menH582 among them, yet should they rise upH6965 every manH376 in his tentH168, and burnH8313 this cityH5892 with fireH784. {wounded: Heb. thrust through}
And it came to pass, that when the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 was broken upH5927 from JerusalemH3389 for fearH6440 of Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428, {broken…: Heb. made to ascend}
Then JeremiahH3414 went forthH3318 out of JerusalemH3389 to goH3212 into the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, to separateH2505 himself thence in the midstH8432 of the peopleH5971. {separate…: or, to slip away from thence in the midst of the people}
And when he was in the gateH8179 of BenjaminH1144, a captainH1167 of the wardH6488 was there, whose nameH8034 was IrijahH3376, the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, the sonH1121 of HananiahH2608; and he tookH8610 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, sayingH559, Thou fallest awayH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778.
Then saidH559 JeremiahH3414, It is falseH8267; I fall not awayH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778. But he hearkenedH8085 not to him: so IrijahH3376 tookH8610 JeremiahH3414, and broughtH935 him to the princesH8269. {false: Heb. falsehood, or, a lie}
Wherefore the princesH8269 were wrothH7107 with JeremiahH3414, and smoteH5221 him, and putH5414 him in prisonH612 in the houseH1004 of JonathanH3083 the scribeH5608: for they had madeH6213 that the prisonH3608.
When JeremiahH3414 was enteredH935 into the dungeonH1004+H953, and into the cabinsH2588, and JeremiahH3414 had remainedH3427 there manyH7227 daysH3117; {cabins: or, cells}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 sentH7971, and took him outH3947: and the kingH4428 askedH7592 him secretlyH5643 in his houseH1004, and saidH559, Is there any wordH1697 from the LORDH3068? And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, There isH3426: for, saidH559 he, thou shalt be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
Moreover JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667, What have I offendedH2398 against thee, or against thy servantsH5650, or against this peopleH5971, that ye have putH5414 me in prisonH1004+H3608?
Where are nowH346 your prophetsH5030 which prophesiedH5012 unto you, sayingH559, The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall not comeH935 against you, nor against this landH776?
Therefore hearH8085 now, I pray thee, O my lordH113 the kingH4428: let my supplicationH8467, I pray thee, be acceptedH5307 beforeH6440 thee; that thou cause me not to returnH7725 to the houseH1004 of JonathanH3083 the scribeH5608, lest I dieH4191 there. {let…: Heb. let my supplication fall}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 commandedH6680 that they should commitH6485 JeremiahH3414 into the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and that they should giveH5414 him dailyH3117 a pieceH3603 of breadH3899 out of the bakers'H644 streetH2351, until all the breadH3899 in the cityH5892 were spentH8552. Thus JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.

Behold, I will commandH6680, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and cause them to returnH7725 to this cityH5892; and they shall fightH3898 against it, and takeH3920 it, and burnH8313 it with fireH784: and I will makeH5414 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 a desolationH8077 without an inhabitantH3427.

And all the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 came inH935, and satH3427 in the middleH8432 gateH8179, even NergalsharezerH5371, SamgarneboH5562, SarsechimH8310, RabsarisH7249, NergalsharezerH5371, RabmagH7248, with all the residueH7611 of the princesH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
And it came to pass, that when ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 sawH7200 them, and all the menH582 of warH4421, then they fledH1272, and went forthH3318 out of the cityH5892 by nightH3915, by the wayH1870 of the king'sH4428 gardenH1588, by the gateH8179 betwixt the two wallsH2346: and he went outH3318 the wayH1870 of the plainH6160.
But the Chaldeans'H3778 armyH2428 pursuedH7291 afterH310 them, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and when they had takenH3947 him, they brought him upH5927 to NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574, where he gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him. {gave…: Heb. spake with him judgments}
Then 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.
Moreover he put outH5786 Zedekiah'sH6667 eyesH5869, and boundH631 him with chainsH5178, to carryH935 him to BabylonH894. {with…: Heb. with two brasen chains, or, fetters}
And the ChaldeansH3778 burnedH8313 the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and the housesH1004 of the peopleH5971, with fireH784, and brake downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389.
