Jeremiah 52:4-14 (WEBM) | TrulyRandomVerse

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 Kasdim were against the city all around;) and they went toward the Arabah.

8

But the army of the Kasdim 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 to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.

10

The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he killed also 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, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem:

13

and he burned the LORD’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 Kasdim, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
