[1] Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign. He reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. [2] He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. [3] For through Yahweh’s anger this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence.Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon. [4] In the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about. [5] So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of King Zedekiah. [6] In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land. [7] Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went 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 against the city all around. The men of war went toward the Arabah, [8] but the army of the Chaldeans pursued 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 to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him. [10] The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also killed all the princes of Judah in Riblah. [11] He put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison until the day of his death. [12] Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem. [13] He burned Yahweh’s house, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, he burned with fire. [14] All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around. [15] Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the rest of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who defected to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude. [16] But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers. [17] The Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in Yahweh’s house and the bases and the bronze sea that were in Yahweh’s house in pieces, and carried all of their bronze to Babylon. [18] They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered. [19] The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lamp stands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, as gold, and that which was of silver, as silver. [20] They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the bases, which King Solomon had made for Yahweh’s house. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight. [21] As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits;ⓘ and a line of twelve cubits encircled it; and its thickness was four fingers. It was hollow. [22] A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits,ⓘ with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. The second pillar also had the same, with pomegranates. [23] There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around. [24] The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold, [25] and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king’s face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the middle of the city. [26] Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah. [27] The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath.So Judah was carried away captive out of his land. [28] This is the number of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: [29] in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons; [30] in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five people. [31] In the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and released him from prison. [32] He spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon, [33] and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life. [34] For his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.

[1] ZedekiahH6667 [was] oneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reign,H4427(QalInf) and he reignedH4427(QalPerf) elevenH259 yearsH8141 in Jerusalem.H3389 And his mother’sH517 nameH8034 [was] HamutalH2537 the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of Libnah.H3841 [2] And he didH6213(QalImpf) [that which was] evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the Lord,H3068 according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had done.H6213(QalPerf) [3] For throughH5921 the angerH639 of the LordH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and Judah,H3063 till he had cast them outH7993(HiphInf) from his presence,H6440 that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775(QalImpf) against the kingH4428 of Babylon.H894 [4] And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reign,H4427(QalInf) in the tenthH6224 month,H2320 in the tenthH6218 [day] of the month,H2320 [that] NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 came,H935(QalPerf) he and all his army,H2428 against Jerusalem,H3389 and pitchedH2583(QalImpf) against it, and builtH1129(QalImpf) fortsH1785 against it round about.H5439 [5] SoH935(QalImpf) the cityH5892 was besiegedH4692 unto the eleventhH6249 yearH8141 of kingH4428 Zedekiah.H6667 [6] And in the fourthH7243 month,H2320 in the ninthH8672 [day] of the month,H2320 the famineH7458 was soreH2388(QalImpf) in the city,H5892 so that there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the land.H776 [7] Then the cityH5892 was broken up,H1234(NiphImpf) and all the menH582 of warH4421 fled,H1272(QalImpf) and went forthH3318(QalImpf) out of the cityH5892 by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between the two walls,H2346 which [was] by the king’sH4428 garden;H1588 (now the ChaldeansH3778 [were] by the cityH5892 round about:H5439) and they wentH3212(QalImpf) by the wayH1870 of the plain.H6160 [8] But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291(QalImpf) afterH310 the king,H4428 and overtookH5381(HiphImpf) ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of Jericho;H3405 and all his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327(NiphPerf) from him. [9] Then they tookH8610(QalImpf) the king,H4428 and carried him upH5927(HiphImpf) unto the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of Hamath;H2574 where he gaveH1696(PielImpf) judgmentH4941 upon him. [10] And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819(QalImpf) the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyes:H5869 he slewH7819(QalPerf) also all the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 in Riblah.H7247 [11] Then he put outH5786(PielPerf) the eyesH5869 of Zedekiah;H6667 and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 boundH631(QalImpf) him in chains,H5178 and carriedH935(HiphImpf) him to Babylon,H894 and putH5414(QalImpf) him in prisonH1004 till the dayH3117 of his death.H4194 [12] Now in the fifthH2549 month,H2320 in the tenthH6218 [day] of the month,H2320 which [was] the nineteenthH8672 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 cameH935(QalPerf) Nebuzaradan,H5018 captainH7227 of the guard,H2876 [which] servedH5975(QalPerf) the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 into Jerusalem,H3389 [13] And burnedH8313(QalImpf) the houseH1004 of the Lord,H3068 and the king’sH4428 house;H1004 and all the housesH1004 of Jerusalem,H3389 and all the housesH1004 of the greatH1419 [men], burnedH8313(QalPerf) he with fire:H784 [14] And all the armyH2428 of the Chaldeans,H3778 that [were] with the captainH7227 of the guard,H2876 brake downH5422(QalPerf) all the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round about.H5439 [15] Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540(HiphPerf) [certain] of the poorH1803 of the people,H5971 and the residueH3499 of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604(NiphPtc) in the city,H5892 and those that fell away,H5307(QalActPtc) that fellH5307(QalPerf) to the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 and the restH3499 of the multitude.H527 [16] But NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604(HiphPerf) [certain] of the poorH1803 of the landH776 for vinedressersH3755 and for husbandmen.H3009(QalActPtc) [17] Also the pillarsH5982 of brassH5178 that [were] in the houseH1004 of the Lord,H3068 and the bases,H4350 and the brasenH5178 seaH3220 that [was] in the houseH1004 of the Lord,H3068 the ChaldeansH3778 brake,H7665(PielPerf) and carriedH5375(QalImpf) all the brassH5178 of them to Babylon.H894 [18] The caldronsH5518 also, and the shovels,H3257 and the snuffers,H4212 and the bowls,H4219 and the spoons,H3709 and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 wherewith they ministered,H8334(PielImpf) took they away.H3947(QalPerf) [19] And the basons,H5592 and the firepans,H4289 and the bowls,H4219 and the caldrons,H5518 and the candlesticks,H4501 and the spoons,H3709 and the cups;H4518 [that] which [was] of goldH2091 [in] gold,H2091 and [that] which [was] of silverH3701 [in] silver,H3701 tookH3947 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 away.H3947(QalPerf) [20] The twoH8147 pillars,H5982 oneH259 sea,H3220 and twelveH8147 brasenH5178 bullsH1241 that [were] under the bases,H4350 which kingH4428 SolomonH8010 had madeH6213(QalPerf) in the houseH1004 of the Lord:H3068 the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was without weight.H4948 [21] And [concerning] the pillars,H5982 the heightH6967 of oneH259 pillarH5982 [was] eighteenH8083 cubits;H520 and a filletH2339 of twelveH8147 cubitsH520 did compassH5437(QalImpf) it; and the thicknessH5672 thereof [was] fourH702 fingers:H676 [it was] hollow.H5014(QalPasPtc) [22] And a chapiterH3805 of brassH5178 [was] upon it; and the heightH6967 of oneH259 chapiterH3805 [was] fiveH2568 cubits,H520 with networkH7639 and pomegranatesH7416 upon the chapitersH3805 round about,H5439 all [of] brass.H5178 The secondH8145 pillarH5982 also and the pomegranatesH7416 [were] like unto these. [23] And there were ninetyH8673 and sixH8337 pomegranatesH7416 on a side;H7307 [and] all the pomegranatesH7416 upon the networkH7639 [were] an hundredH3967 round about.H5439 [24] And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947(QalImpf) SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priest,H3548 and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priest,H3548 and the threeH7969 keepersH8104(QalActPtc) of the door:H5592 [25] He tookH3947(QalPerf) also out of the cityH5892 anH259 eunuch,H5631 which had the chargeH6496 of the menH582 of war;H4421 and sevenH7651 menH582 of them that were nearH7200(QalActPtc) the king’sH4428 person,H6440 which were foundH4672(NiphPerf) in the city;H5892 and the principalH8269 scribeH5608(QalActPtc) of the host,H6635 who musteredH6633(HiphPtc) the peopleH5971 of the land;H776 and threescoreH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the land,H776 that were foundH4672(NiphPtc) in the midstH8432 of the city.H5892 [26] So NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947(QalImpf) them, and broughtH3212(HiphImpf) them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to Riblah.H7247 [27] And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221(HiphImpf) them, and put them to deathH4191(HiphImpf) in RiblahH7247 in the landH127 of Hamath.H2574 Thus JudahH3063 was carried away captiveH1540(QalImpf) out of his own land.H776 [28] This [is] the peopleH5971 whom NebuchadrezzarH5019 carried away captive:H1540(HiphPerf) in the seventhH7651 yearH8141 threeH7969 thousandH505 JewsH3064 and threeH7969 and twenty:H6242 [29] In the eighteenthH8083 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 he carried away captiveH1540(HiphPerf) from JerusalemH3389 eightH8083 hundredH3967 thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 persons:H5315 [30] In the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540(HiphPerf) of the JewsH3064 sevenH7651 hundredH3967 fortyH705 and fiveH2568 persons:H5315 all the personsH5315 [were] fourH702 thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundred.H3967 [31] And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 in the twelfthH8147 month,H2320 in the fiveH2568 and twentiethH6242 [day] of the month,H2320 [that] EvilmerodachH192 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 in the [first] yearH8141 of his reignH4438 lifted upH5375(QalPerf) the headH7218 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 and brought him forthH3318(HiphImpf) out of prison,H1004 [32] And spakeH1696(PielImpf) kindlyH2896 unto him, and setH5414(QalImpf) his throneH3678 aboveH4605 the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that [were] with him in Babylon,H894 [33] And changedH8138(PielPerf) his prisonH3608 garments:H899 and he did continuallyH8548 eatH398(QalPerf) breadH3899 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his life.H2416 [34] And [for] his diet,H737 there was a continualH8548 dietH737 givenH5414(NiphPerf) him of the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 everyH3117 dayH3117 a portionH1697 until the dayH3117 of his death,H4194 all the daysH3117 of his life.H2416
