| 25:1 | And it came to pass in the ninth <08671> year <08141> of his reign <04427> (8800), in the tenth <06224> month <02320>, in the tenth <06218> [day] of the month <02320>, [that] Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> came <0935> (8804), he, and all his host <02428>, against Jerusalem <03389>, and pitched <02583> (8799) against it; and they built <01129> (8799) forts <01785> against it round about <05439>. |
| 25:2 | And the city <05892> was besieged <0935> (8799) <04692> unto the eleventh <06249> <06240> year <08141> of king <04428> Zedekiah <06667>. |
| 25:3 | And on the ninth <08672> [day] of the [fourth] month <02320> the famine <07458> prevailed <02388> (8799) in the city <05892>, and there was no bread <03899> for the people <05971> of the land <0776>. |
| 25:4 | And the city <05892> was broken up <01234> (8735), and all the men <0582> of war <04421> [fled] by night <03915> by the way <01870> of the gate <08179> between two walls <02346>, which [is] by the king's <04428> garden <01588>: (now the Chaldees <03778> [were] against the city <05892> round about <05439>:) and [the king] went <03212> (8799) the way <01870> toward the plain <06160>. |
| 25:5 | And the army <02428> of the Chaldees <03778> pursued <07291> (8799) after <0310> the king <04428>, and overtook <05381> (8686) him in the plains <06160> of Jericho <03405>: and all his army <02428> were scattered <06327> (8738) from him. |
| 25:6 | So they took <08610> (8799) the king <04428>, and brought him up <05927> (8686) to the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> to Riblah <07247>; and they gave <01696> (8762) judgment <04941> upon him. {gave...: Heb. spake judgment with him} |
| 25:7 | And they slew <07819> (8804) the sons <01121> of Zedekiah <06667> before his eyes <05869>, and put out <05786> (8765) the eyes <05869> of Zedekiah <06667>, and bound <0631> (8799) him with fetters <05178> of brass <05178>, and carried <0935> (8686) him to Babylon <0894>. {put...: Heb. made blind} |
| 25:8 | And in the fifth <02549> month <02320>, on the seventh <07651> [day] of the month <02320>, which [is] the nineteenth <08672> <06240> <08141> year <08141> of king <04428> Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, came <0935> (8804) Nebuzaradan <05018>, captain <07227> of the guard <02876>, a servant <05650> of the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, unto Jerusalem <03389>: {captain...: or, chief marshal} |
| 25:9 | And he burnt <08313> (8799) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the king's <04428> house <01004>, and all the houses <01004> of Jerusalem <03389>, and every great <01419> [man's] house <01004> burnt <08313> (8804) he with fire <0784>. |
| 25:10 | And all the army <02428> of the Chaldees <03778>, that [were with] the captain <07227> of the guard <02876>, brake down <05422> (8804) the walls <02346> of Jerusalem <03389> round about <05439>. |
| 25:11 | Now the rest <03499> of the people <05971> [that were] left <07604> (8737) in the city <05892>, and the fugitives <05307> (8802) that fell away <05307> (8804) to the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, with the remnant <03499> of the multitude <01995>, did Nebuzaradan <05018> the captain <07227> of the guard <02876> carry away <01540> (8689). {fugitives: Heb. fallen away} |
| 25:12 | But the captain <07227> of the guard <02876> left <07604> (8689) of the poor <01803> of the land <0776> [to be] vinedressers <03755> and husbandmen <03009> (8802) (8675) <01461> (8801). |
| 25:13 | And the pillars <05982> of brass <05178> that [were] in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the bases <04350>, and the brasen <05178> sea <03220> that [was] in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, did the Chaldees <03778> break in pieces <07665> (8765), and carried <05375> (8799) the brass <05178> of them to Babylon <0894>. |
| 25:14 | And the pots <05518>, and the shovels <03257>, and the snuffers <04212>, and the spoons <03709>, and all the vessels <03627> of brass <05178> wherewith they ministered <08334> (8762), took they away <03947> (8804). |
| 25:15 | And the firepans <04289>, and the bowls <04219>, [and] such things as [were] of gold <02091>, [in] gold <02091>, and of silver <03701>, [in] silver <03701>, the captain <07227> of the guard <02876> took away <03947> (8804). |
| 25:16 | The two <08147> pillars <05982>, one <0259> sea <03220>, and the bases <04350> which Solomon <08010> had made <06213> (8804) for the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>; the brass <05178> of all these vessels <03627> was without <03808> weight <04948>. {one...: Heb. the one sea} |
| 25:17 | The height <06967> of the one <0259> pillar <05982> [was] eighteen <08083> <06240> cubits <0520>, and the chapiter <03805> upon it [was] brass <05178>: and the height <06967> of the chapiter <03805> three <07969> cubits <0520>; and the wreathen work <07639>, and pomegranates <07416> upon the chapiter <03805> round about <05439>, all of brass <05178>: and like unto these had the second <08145> pillar <05982> with wreathen work <07639>. |
| 25:18 | And the captain <07227> of the guard <02876> took <03947> (8799) Seraiah <08304> the chief <07218> priest <03548>, and Zephaniah <06846> the second <04932> priest <03548>, and the three <07969> keepers <08104> (8802) of the door <05592>: {door: Heb. threshold} |
| 25:19 | And out of the city <05892> he took <03947> (8804) an <0259> officer <05631> that was set <06496> over the men <0582> of war <04421>, and five <02568> men <0582> of them that were <07200> (8802) in the king's <04428> presence <06440>, which were found <04672> (8738) in the city <05892>, and the principal <08269> scribe <05608> (8802) of the host <06635>, which mustered <06633> (8688) the people <05971> of the land <0776>, and threescore <08346> men <0376> of the people <05971> of the land <0776> [that were] found <04672> (8737) in the city <05892>: {officer: or, eunuch} {were in...: Heb. saw the king's face} {principal...: or, scribe of the captain of the host} |
| 25:20 | And Nebuzaradan <05018> captain <07227> of the guard <02876> took <03947> (8799) these, and brought <03212> (8686) them to the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> to Riblah <07247>: |
| 25:21 | And the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> smote <05221> (8686) them, and slew <04191> (8686) them at Riblah <07247> in the land <0776> of Hamath <02574>. So Judah <03063> was carried away <01540> (8799) out of their land <0127>. |
| 25:22 | And [as for] the people <05971> that remained <07604> (8737) in the land <0776> of Judah <03063>, whom Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> had left <07604> (8689), even over them he made Gedaliah <01436> the son <01121> of Ahikam <0296>, the son <01121> of Shaphan <08227>, ruler <06485> (8686). |
| 25:23 | And when all the captains <08269> of the armies <02428>, they and their men <0582>, heard <08085> (8799) that the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> had made Gedaliah <01436> governor <06485> (8689), there came <0935> (8799) to Gedaliah <01436> to Mizpah <04709>, even Ishmael <03458> the son <01121> of Nethaniah <05418>, and Johanan <03110> the son <01121> of Careah <07143>, and Seraiah <08304> the son <01121> of Tanhumeth <08576> the Netophathite <05200>, and Jaazaniah <02970> the son <01121> of a Maachathite <04602>, they and their men <0582>. |
| 25:24 | And Gedaliah <01436> sware <07650> (8735) to them, and to their men <0582>, and said <0559> (8799) unto them, Fear <03372> (8799) not to be the servants <05650> of the Chaldees <03778>: dwell <03427> (8798) in the land <0776>, and serve <05647> (8798) the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>; and it shall be well <03190> (8799) with you. |
| 25:25 | But it came to pass in the seventh <07637> month <02320>, that Ishmael <03458> the son <01121> of Nethaniah <05418>, the son <01121> of Elishama <0476>, of the seed <02233> royal <04410>, came <0935> (8804), and ten <06235> men <0582> with him, and smote <05221> (8686) Gedaliah <01436>, that he died <04191> (8799), and the Jews <03064> and the Chaldees <03778> that were with him at Mizpah <04709>. {royal: Heb. of the kingdom} |
| 25:26 | And all the people <05971>, both small <06996> and great <01419>, and the captains <08269> of the armies <02428>, arose <06965> (8799), and came <0935> (8799) to Egypt <04714>: for they were afraid <03372> (8804) of <06440> the Chaldees <03778>. |
| 25:27 | And it came to pass in the seven <07651> and thirtieth <07970> year <08141> of the captivity <01546> of Jehoiachin <03078> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, in the twelfth <08147> <06240> month <02320>, on the seven <07651> and twentieth <06242> [day] of the month <02320>, [that] Evilmerodach <0192> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> in the year <08141> that he began to reign <04427> (8800) did lift up <05375> (8804) the head <07218> of Jehoiachin <03078> king <04428> of Judah <03063> out of prison <01004> <03608>; |
| 25:28 | And he spake <01696> (8762) kindly <02896> to him, and set <05414> (8799) his throne <03678> above the throne <03678> of the kings <04428> that [were] with him in Babylon <0894>; {kindly...: Heb. good things with him} |
| 25:29 | And changed <08132> (8765) his prison <03608> garments <0899>: and he did eat <0398> (8804) bread <03899> continually <08548> before <06440> him all the days <03117> of his life <02416>. |
| 25:30 | And his allowance <0737> [was] a continual <08548> allowance <0737> given <05414> (8738) him of the king <04428>, a daily <03117> <03117> rate <01697> for every day <03117>, all the days <03117> of his life <02416>. |
