Jeremiah 52:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ Then finally, on the ninth day of the fourth month, when the famine in the city was very serious, with the last of the food entirely gone, ⁷ the people in the city tore a hole in the city wall and all the soldiers fled from the city during the night, going out by the gate between the two walls near the king’s gardens (for the city was surrounded by the Chaldeans), and made a dash for it across the fields, toward Arabah.

⁸ But the Chaldean soldiers chased them and caught King Zedekiah in some fields near Jericho—for all his army was scattered from him.
