Jeremiah 52
Today's New International Version Help
52Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother's name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah.H6667H259H6242H8141H1121H4427H4427H259H6240H8141H3389H517H8034H2537H1323H3414H3841
2He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.H6213H7451H5869H3068H3079H6213
3It was because of the LORD's anger that all this happened to Jerusalem and Judah, and in the end he thrust them from his presence. Now Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.H5921H639H3068H3389H3063H7993H6440H6667H4775H4428H894
4So in the ninth year of Zedekiah's reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his whole army. They encamped outside the city and built siege works all around it.H8671H8141H4427H6224H2320H6218H2320H5019H4428H894H935H2428H3389H2583H1129H1785H5439
5The city was kept under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.H935H5892H4692H6249H6240H8141H4428H6667
6By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine in the city had become so severe that there was no food for the people to eat.H7243H2320H8672H2320H7458H2388H5892H3899H5971H776
7Then the city wall was broken through, and the whole army fled. They left the city at night through the gate between the two walls near the king's garden, though the Babylonians were surrounding the city. They fled toward the Arabah,H5892H1234H582H4421H1272H3318H5892H3915H1870H8179H2346H4428H1588H3778H5892H5439H3212H1870H6160
8but the Babylonian army pursued King Zedekiah and overtook him in the plains of Jericho. All his soldiers were separated from him and scattered,H2428H3778H7291H310H4428H5381H6667H6160H3405H2428H6327
9and he was captured. He was taken to the king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced sentence on him.H8610H4428H5927H4428H894H7247H776H2574H1696H4941
10There at Riblah the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes; he also killed all the officials of Judah.H4428H894H7819H1121H6667H5869H7819H8269H3063H7247
11Then he put out Zedekiah's eyes, bound him with bronze shackles and took him to Babylon, where he put him in prison till the day of his death.H5786H5869H6667H4428H894H631H5178H935H894H5414H1004H6486H3117H4194
12On the tenth day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard, who served the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem.H2549H2320H6218H2320H8672H6240H8141H8141H5019H4428H894H935H5018H7227H2876H5975H6440H4428H894H3389
13He set fire to the temple of the LORD, the royal palace and all the houses of Jerusalem. Every important building he burned down.H8313H1004H3068H4428H1004H1004H3389H1004H1419H8313H784
14The whole Babylonian army, under the commander of the imperial guard, broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.H2428H3778H7227H2876H5422H2346H3389H5439
15Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard carried into exile some of the poorest people and those who remained in the city, along with the rest of the skilled workers and those who had deserted to the king of Babylon.H5018H7227H2876H1540H1803H5971H3499H5971H7604H5892H5307H5307H4428H894H3499H527
16But Nebuzaradan left behind the rest of the poorest people of the land to work the vineyards and fields.H5018H7227H2876H7604H1803H776H3755H3009
17The Babylonians broke up the bronze pillars, the movable stands and the bronze Sea that were at the temple of the LORD and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.H5982H5178H1004H3068H4350H5178H3220H1004H3068H3778H7665H5375H5178H894
18They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes and all the bronze articles used in the temple service.H5518H3257H4212H4219H3709H3627H5178H8334H3947
19The commander of the imperial guard took away the basins, censers, sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands, dishes and bowls used for drink offerings—all that were made of pure gold or silver.H5592H4289H4219H5518H4501H3709H4518H2091H2091H3701H3701H3947H7227H2876H3947
20The bronze from the two pillars, the Sea and the twelve bronze bulls under it, and the movable stands, which King Solomon had made for the temple of the LORD, was more than could be weighed.H8147H5982H259H3220H8147H6240H5178H1241H4350H4428H8010H6213H1004H3068H5178H3627H4948
21Each pillar was eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference ; each was four fingers thick, and hollow.H5982H6967H259H5982H8083H6240H520H2339H8147H6240H520H5437H5672H702H676H5014
22The bronze capital on top of one pillar was five cubits high and was decorated with a network and pomegranates of bronze all around. The other pillar, with its pomegranates, was similar.H3805H5178H6967H259H3805H2568H520H7639H7416H3805H5439H5178H8145H5982H7416
23There were ninetysix pomegranates on the sides; the total number of pomegranates above the surrounding network was a hundred.H8673H8337H7416H7307H7416H7639H3967H5439
24The commander of the guard took as prisoners Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest next in rank and the three doorkeepers.H7227H2876H3947H8304H7218H3548H6846H4932H3548H7969H8104H5592
25Of those still in the city, he took the officer in charge of the fighting men, and seven royal advisers. He also took the secretary who was chief officer in charge of conscripting the people of the land, sixty of whom were found in the city.H3947H5892H259H5631H6496H582H4421H7651H582H7200H4428H6440H4672H5892H8269H5608H6635H6633H5971H776H8346H376H5971H776H4672H8432H5892
26Nebuzaradan the commander took them all and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.H5018H7227H2876H3947H3212H4428H894H7247
27There at Riblah, in the land of Hamath, the king had them executed. So Judah went into captivity, away from her land.H4428H894H5221H4191H7247H127H2574H3063H1540H776
28This is the number of the people Nebuchadnezzar carried into exile: in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;H5971H5019H1540H7651H8141H7969H505H3064H7969H6242
29in Nebuchadnezzar's eighteenth year, 832 people from Jerusalem;H8083H6240H8141H5019H1540H3389H8083H3967H7970H8147H5315
30in his twenty-third year, 745 Jews taken into exile by Nebuzaradan the commander of the imperial guard. There were 4,600 people in all.H7969H6242H8141H5019H5018H7227H2876H1540H3064H7651H3967H705H2568H5315H5315H702H505H8337H3967
31In the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the year Awel-Marduk became king of Babylon, on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month, he released Jehoiachin king of Judah and freed him from prison.H7651H7970H8141H1546H3078H4428H3063H8147H6240H2320H2568H6242H2320H192H4428H894H8141H4438H5375H7218H3078H4428H3063H3318H1004H3628
32He spoke kindly to him and gave him a seat of honor higher than those of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.H1696H2896H5414H3678H4605H3678H4428H894
33So Jehoiachin put aside his prison clothes and for the rest of his life ate regularly at the king's table.H8138H3608H899H8548H398H3899H6440H3117H2416
34Day by day the king of Babylon gave Jehoiachin a regular allowance as long as he lived, till the day of his death.H737H8548H737H5414H4428H894H3117H3117H1697H3117H4194H3117H2416
