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 in the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667, in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320, the cityH5892 was broken upH1234.
And it shall come to pass, if they sayH559 unto thee, Whither shall we go forthH3318? then thou shalt tellH559 them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Such as are for deathH4194, to deathH4194; and such as are for the swordH2719, to the swordH2719; and such as are for the famineH7458, to the famineH7458; and such as are for the captivityH7628, to the captivityH7628.
And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And I will cause them to eatH398 the fleshH1320 of their sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of their daughtersH1323, and they shall eatH398 every oneH376 the fleshH1320 of his friendH7453 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith their enemiesH341, and they that seekH1245 their livesH5315, shall straitenH6693 them.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; The fastH6685 of the fourthH7243 month, and the fastH6685 of the fifthH2549, and the fastH6685 of the seventhH7637, and the fastH6685 of the tenthH6224, shall be to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 joyH8342 and gladnessH8057, and cheerfulH2896 feastsH4150; therefore loveH157 the truthH571 and peaceH7965. {feasts: or, solemn, or, set times}
He that abidethH3427 in this cityH5892 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, and by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698: but he that goeth outH3318, and fallethH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778 that besiegeH6696 you, he shall liveH2421+H2421, and his lifeH5315 shall be unto him for a preyH7998.
Moreover I will takeH6 from them the voiceH6963 of mirthH8342, and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the bridegroomH2860, and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618, the soundH6963 of the millstonesH7347, and the lightH216 of the candleH5216. {I will…: Heb. I will cause to perish from them}
My lordH113 the kingH4428, these menH582 have done evilH7489 in all that they have doneH6213 to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, whom they have castH7993 into the dungeonH953; and he is like to dieH4191 forH6440 hungerH7458 in the placeH8478 where he is: for there is no more breadH3899 in the cityH5892. {he is like…: Heb. he will die}
And when I have brokenH7665 the staffH4294 of your breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 shall bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they shall deliverH7725 you your breadH3899 againH7725 by weightH4948: and ye shall eatH398, and not be satisfiedH7646.
And he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179, until thy highH1364 and fencedH1219 wallsH2346 come downH3381, whereinH2004 thou trustedstH982, throughout all thy landH776: and he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179 throughout all thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee.
And thou shalt eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thine own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee, in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee: {body: Heb. belly}
They shall be burntH4198 with hungerH7458, and devouredH3898 with burning heatH7565, and with bitterH4815 destructionH6986: I will also sendH7971 the teethH8127 of beastsH929 upon them, with the poisonH2534 of serpentsH2119 of the dustH6083. {heat: Heb. coals}
For, behold, the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, doth take awayH5493 from JerusalemH3389 and from JudahH3063 the stayH4937 and the staffH4938, the whole stayH4937 of breadH3899, and the wholeH3605 stayH4937 of waterH4325,
The tongueH3956 of the sucking childH3243 cleavethH1692 to the roof of his mouthH2441 for thirstH6772: the young childrenH5768 askH7592 breadH3899, and no man breakethH6566 it unto them.
They that did feedH398 delicatelyH4574 are desolateH8074 in the streetsH2351: they that were brought upH539 in scarletH8438 embraceH2263 dunghillsH830.
For the punishment of the iniquityH5771 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is greaterH1431 than the punishmentH2403 of the sin of SodomH5467, that was overthrownH2015 as in a momentH7281, and no handsH3027 stayedH2342 on her. {punishment of the iniquity: or, iniquity}
Our skinH5785 was blackH3648 like an ovenH8574 becauseH6440 of the terribleH2152 famineH7458. {terrible: or, terrors, or, storms}
TakeH3947 thou also unto thee wheatH2406, and barleyH8184, and beansH6321, and lentilesH5742, and milletH1764, and fitchesH3698, and putH5414 them in oneH259 vesselH3627, and makeH6213 thee breadH3899 thereof, according to the numberH4557 of the daysH3117 that thou shalt lieH7901 upon thy sideH6654, threeH7969 hundredH3967 and ninetyH8673 daysH3117 shalt thou eatH398 thereof. {fitches: or, spelt}
And thy meatH3978 which thou shalt eatH398 shall be by weightH4946, twentyH6242 shekelsH8255 a dayH3117: from timeH6256 to timeH6256 shalt thou eatH398 it.
Thou shalt drinkH8354 also waterH4325 by measureH4884, the sixth partH8345 of an hinH1969: from timeH6256 to timeH6256 shalt thou drinkH8354.
And thou shalt eatH398 it as barleyH8184 cakesH5692, and thou shalt bakeH5746 it with dungH1561 that cometh outH6627 of manH120, in their sightH5869.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Even thus shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 eatH398 their defiledH2931 breadH3899 among the GentilesH1471, whither I will driveH5080 them.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, my soulH5315 hath not been pollutedH2930: for from my youthH5271 up even till now have I not eatenH398 of that which dieth of itselfH5038, or is torn in piecesH2966; neither cameH935 there abominableH6292 fleshH1320 into my mouthH6310.
Then he saidH559 unto me, LoH7200, I have givenH5414 thee cow'sH1241 dungH6832+H6832 for man'sH120 dungH1561, and thou shalt prepareH6213 thy breadH3899 therewith.
Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, behold, I will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of breadH3899 in JerusalemH3389: and they shall eatH398 breadH3899 by weightH4948, and with careH1674; and they shall drinkH8354 waterH4325 by measureH4884, and with astonishmentH8078:
That they may wantH2637 breadH3899 and waterH4325, and be astoniedH8074 oneH376 with anotherH251, and consume awayH4743 for their iniquityH5771.
Therefore the fathersH1 shall eatH398 the sonsH1121 in the midstH8432 of thee, and the sonsH1121 shall eatH398 their fathersH1; and I will executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 in thee, and the whole remnantH7611 of thee will I scatterH2219 into all the windsH7307.
Wherefore, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069; Surely, because thou hast defiledH2930 my sanctuaryH4720 with all thy detestable thingsH8251, and with all thine abominationsH8441, therefore will I also diminishH1639 thee; neither shall mine eyeH5869 spareH2347, neither will I have any pityH2550.
A third partH7992 of thee shall dieH4191 with the pestilenceH1698, and with famineH7458 shall they be consumedH3615 in the midstH8432 of thee: and a third partH7992 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719 round aboutH5439 thee; and I will scatterH2219 a third partH7992 into all the windsH7307, and I will draw outH7324 a swordH2719 afterH310 them.
