Jeremiah
52:1,2 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. And he did that which was evil in the
eyes of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim
had done.
Jeremiah
52:3,4 For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem
and Judah.(2Kings
25:1-12), till he had cast them out from his presence,
that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.(Jeremiah
27:1,5-18). 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.
Jeremiah
52:5-7 So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
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.
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.
Jeremiah
52:8-11 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. Then
they took king Zedekiah and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to
Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him. And the
king of Babylon
slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He slew also all the princes
of Judah
in Riblah. 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.
Jeremiah
52:12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which
was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar-IIking
of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, captain
of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem,
Nebuchadrezzar
is a different spelling for Nebuchadnezzar.
Jeremiah
52:13-15 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. And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain
of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about. 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.
Jeremiah
52:16-26 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left certain of the
poor of the land for vinedressers and for husbandmen. 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. 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. And
the basons and the firepans and the bowls and more 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. 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. 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. And a chapiter
of brass was upon it and the height of one chapiter was five cubits, with
network and pomegranates.(pomegranate
trees).upon the chapiters round
about, all of brass. The second pillar also and the pomegranates were like
unto these. And there were ninety and six pomegranates on a side and all
the pomegranates upon the network were an hundred round about. And the
captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest and Zephaniah the second
priest and the three keepers of the door. 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. So Nebuzaradan
the captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon
to Riblah.
Jeremiah
52:27-30 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
their own land. This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive.
In the seventh year three thousand twenty three of those in Judah. In the
eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem
eight hundred thirty and two individuals. In the three and twentieth year
of Nebuchadrezzar, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive
of the Judeans seven hundred forty and five. All the persons were four
thousand and six hundred.
Jeremiah
52:31-34 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 Evil-merodach 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 and spake kindly unto
him and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him
in Babylon and changed his prison garments and he did continually eat bread
before him all the days of his life. 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.
