ZedekiahH6667 was oneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was HamutalH2537 the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of LibnahH3841. {began…: Heb. reigned}
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had doneH6213.
For 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.
And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he and all his armyH2428, against JerusalemH3389, and pitchedH2583 against it, and builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it round aboutH5439.
SoH935 the cityH5892 was besiegedH4692 unto the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667.
And in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, in the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320, the famineH7458 was soreH2388 in the cityH5892, so that there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
Then the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fledH1272, and went forthH3318 out of 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 round aboutH5439:) and they wentH3212 by the wayH1870 of the plainH6160.
But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 afterH310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405; and all his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327 from him.
Then they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and carried him upH5927 unto the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574; where he gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him.
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869: he slewH7819 also all the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 in RiblahH7247.
Then 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 prisonH1004+H6486 till the dayH3117 of his deathH4194. {put out: Heb. blinded} {chains: or, fetters} {prison: Heb. house of the wards}
Now in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, which was the nineteenthH8672+H6240+H8141 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, which servedH5975+H6440 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, into JerusalemH3389, {captain…: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen} {served: Heb. stood before}
And 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, burnedH8313 he with fireH784:
And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, brake downH5422 all the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.
Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 certain of the poorH1803 of the peopleH5971, and the residueH3499 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.
But NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 certain of the poorH1803 of the landH776 for vinedressersH3755 and for husbandmenH3009.
Also 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 brakeH7665, and carriedH5375 all the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894.
The caldronsH5518 also, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the bowlsH4219, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 wherewith they ministeredH8334, took they awayH3947. {shovels: or, instruments to remove the ashes} {bowls: or, basons}
And the basonsH5592, and the firepansH4289, and the bowlsH4219, and the caldronsH5518, and the candlesticksH4501, and the spoonsH3709, and the cupsH4518; that which was of goldH2091 in goldH2091, and that which was of silverH3701 in silverH3701, tookH3947 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 awayH3947. {firepans: or, censers}
The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and twelveH8147+H6240 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. {the brass: Heb. their brass}
And concerning the pillarsH5982, the heightH6967 of oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083+H6240 cubitsH520; and a filletH2339 of twelveH8147+H6240 cubitsH520 did compassH5437 it; and the thicknessH5672 thereof was fourH702 fingersH676: it was hollowH5014. {fillet: Heb. thread}
And a chapiterH3805 of brassH5178 was upon it; and the heightH6967 of oneH259 chapiterH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, with networkH7639 and pomegranatesH7416 upon the chapitersH3805 round aboutH5439, all of brassH5178. The secondH8145 pillarH5982 also and the pomegranatesH7416 were like unto these.
And there were ninetyH8673 and sixH8337 pomegranatesH7416 on a sideH7307; and all the pomegranatesH7416 upon the networkH7639 were an hundredH3967 round aboutH5439.
And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592: {door: Heb. threshold}
He tookH3947 also out of the cityH5892 anH259 eunuchH5631, which had the chargeH6496 of the menH582 of warH4421; and sevenH7651 menH582 of them that were nearH7200 the king'sH4428 personH6440, which were foundH4672 in the cityH5892; and the principalH8269 scribeH5608 of the hostH6635, who musteredH6633 the peopleH5971 of the landH776; and threescoreH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776, that were foundH4672 in the midstH8432 of the cityH5892. {were near…: Heb. saw the face of the king} {principal…: or, scribe of the captain of the host}
So NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 them, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247.
And 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.
This is the peopleH5971 whom NebuchadrezzarH5019 carried away captiveH1540: in the seventhH7651 yearH8141 threeH7969 thousandH505 JewsH3064 and threeH7969 and twentyH6242:
In the eighteenthH8083+H6240 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 he carried away captiveH1540 from JerusalemH3389 eightH8083 hundredH3967 thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 personsH5315: {persons: Heb. souls}
In the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 of the JewsH3064 sevenH7651 hundredH3967 fortyH705 and fiveH2568 personsH5315: all the personsH5315 were fourH702 thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundredH3967.
And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the twelfthH8147+H6240 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 him forthH3318 out of prisonH1004+H3628,
And spakeH1696 kindlyH2896 unto him, and setH5414 his throneH3678 aboveH4605 the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that were with him in BabylonH894, {kindly…: Heb. good things with him}
And changedH8138 his prisonH3608 garmentsH899: and he did continuallyH8548 eatH398 breadH3899 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
And for his dietH737, 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. {every…: Heb. the matter of the day in his day}

And againH3254 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he movedH5496 DavidH1732 against them to sayH559, GoH3212, numberH4487 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.
And he also rebelledH4775 against kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019, who had made him swearH7650 by GodH430: but he stiffenedH7185 his neckH6203, and hardenedH553 his heartH3824 from turningH7725 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which delightedH2654 in thee, to setH5414 thee on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478: because the LORDH3068 lovedH160 IsraelH3478 for everH5769, therefore madeH7760 he thee kingH4428, to doH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666.
But he rebelledH4775 against him in sendingH7971 his ambassadorsH4397 into EgyptH4714, that they might giveH5414 him horsesH5483 and muchH7227 peopleH5971. Shall he prosperH6743? shall he escapeH4422 that doethH6213 such things? or shall he breakH6565 the covenantH1285, and be deliveredH4422?
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, surely in the placeH4725 where the kingH4428 dwelleth that made him kingH4427, whose oathH423 he despisedH959, and whose covenantH1285 he brakeH6565, even with him in the midstH8432 of BabylonH894 he shall dieH4191.
Neither shall PharaohH6547 with his mightyH1419 armyH2428 and greatH7227 companyH6951 makeH6213 for him in the warH4421, by casting upH8210 mountsH5550, and buildingH1129 fortsH1785, to cut offH3772 manyH7227 personsH5315:
Seeing he despisedH959 the oathH423 by breakingH6565 the covenantH1285, when, lo, he had givenH5414 his handH3027, and hath doneH6213 all these things, he shall not escapeH4422.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; As I liveH2416, surely mine oathH423 that he hath despisedH959, and my covenantH1285 that he hath brokenH6331, even it will I recompenseH5414 upon his own headH7218.
And I will spreadH6566 my netH7568 upon him, and he shall be takenH8610 in my snareH4686, and I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894, and will pleadH8199 with him there for his trespassH4603 that he hath trespassedH4604 against me.
And all his fugitivesH4015 with all his bandsH102 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719, and they that remainH7604 shall be scatteredH6566 toward all windsH7307: and ye shall knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it.
For the transgressionH6588 of a landH776 manyH7227 are the princesH8269 thereof: but by a manH120 of understandingH995 and knowledgeH3045 the stateH3651 thereof shall be prolongedH748. {by…: or, by men of understanding and wisdom shall they likewise be prolonged}
WoeH337 to thee, O landH776, when thy kingH4428 is a childH5288, and thy princesH8269 eatH398 in the morningH1242!
And I will giveH5414 childrenH5288 to be their princesH8269, and babesH8586 shall ruleH4910 over them.
