1 Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign and he reigned eleven __ years in Jerusalem And his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah 2 And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD according to all that Jehoiakim had done 3 For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah till he had cast them out from his presence that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon 4 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign in the tenth month in the tenth day of the month that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came he and all his army against Jerusalem and pitched against it and built forts against it round about 5 So the city was besieged unto the eleventh __ year of king Zedekiah 6 And in the fourth month in the ninth day of the month the famine was sore in the city so that there was no bread for the people of the land 7 Then the city was broken up and all the men of war fled and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls which was by the king's garden now the Chaldeans were by the city round about and they went by the way of the plain 8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho and all his army was scattered from him 9 Then they took the king and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath where he gave judgment upon him 10 And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah 11 Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah and the king of Babylon bound him in chains and carried him to Babylon and put him in prison __ till the day of his death

12 Now in the fifth month in the tenth day of the month which was the nineteenth __ __ year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came Nebuzaradan captain of the guard which served __ the king of Babylon into Jerusalem 13 And burned the house of the LORD and the king's house and all the houses of Jerusalem and all the houses of the great men burned he with fire 14 And all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the captain of the guard brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about 15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive certain of the poor of the people and the residue of the people that remained in the city and those that fell away that fell to the king of Babylon and the rest of the multitude 16 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left certain of the poor of the land for vinedressers and for husbandmen

17 Also the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD and the bases and the brasen sea that was in the house of the LORD the Chaldeans brake and carried all the brass of them to Babylon 18 The caldrons also and the shovels and the snuffers and the bowls and the spoons and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered took they away 19 And the basons and the firepans and the bowls and the caldrons and the candlesticks and the spoons and the cups that which was of gold in gold and that which was of silver in silver took the captain of the guard away 20 The two pillars one sea and twelve __ brasen bulls that were under the bases which king Solomon had made in the house of the LORD the brass of all these vessels was without weight 21 And concerning the pillars the height of one pillar was eighteen __ cubits and a fillet of twelve __ cubits did compass it and the thickness thereof was four fingers it was hollow 22 And a chapiter of brass was upon it and the height of one chapiter was five cubits with network and pomegranates upon the chapiters round about all of brass The second pillar also and the pomegranates were like unto these 23 And there were ninety and six pomegranates on a side and all the pomegranates upon the network were an hundred round about

24 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest and Zephaniah the second priest and the three keepers of the door 25 He took also out of the city an eunuch which had the charge of the men of war and seven men of them that were near the king's person which were found in the city and the principal scribe of the host who mustered the people of the land and threescore men of the people of the land that were found in the midst of the city 26 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah 27 And the king of Babylon smote them and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Hamath Thus Judah was carried away captive out of his own land

28 This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty 29 In the eighteenth __ year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty and two persons 30 In the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons all the persons were four thousand and six hundred

31 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah in the twelfth __ month in the five and twentieth day of the month that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah and brought him forth out of prison __ 32 And spake kindly unto him and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon 33 And changed his prison garments and he did continually eat bread before him all the days of his life 34 And for his diet there was a continual diet given him of the king of Babylon every day a portion until the day of his death all the days of his life
