2 in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the city was (A)breached. 3 Then all the (B)officials of the king of Babylon came in and sat down at the (C)Middle Gate: Nergal-sar-ezer, Samgar-nebu, Sar-sekim the [a]Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the [b]Rab-mag, and all the rest of the officials of the king of Babylon. 4 Now it happened that when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, they (D)fled and went out of the city at night by way of the king’s garden through the gate (E)between the two walls; and he went out toward the [c]Arabah. 5 But the military force of the (F)Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the [d](G)plains of Jericho; and they took him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at (H)Riblah in the land of Hamath, and he spoke judgment on him. 6 Then the (I)king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah (J)before his eyes at Riblah; the king of Babylon also slaughtered all the (K)nobles of Judah. 7 He then (L)blinded Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in (M)fetters of bronze to bring him to (N)Babylon. 8 The Chaldeans also (O)burned with fire the house of the king and the houses of the people, and they (P)tore down the walls of Jerusalem.

New International Version
2 And on the ninth day of the fourth(A) month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, the city wall(B) was broken through.(C) 3 Then all the officials(D) of the king of Babylon came and took seats in the Middle Gate: Nergal-Sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim a chief officer, Nergal-Sharezer a high official and all the other officials of the king of Babylon. 4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled; they left the city at night by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls,(E) and headed toward the Arabah.[a](F)
5 But the Babylonian[b] army pursued them and overtook Zedekiah(G) in the plains of Jericho. They captured(H) him and took him to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah(I) in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced sentence on him. 6 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes and also killed all the nobles(J) of Judah. 7 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes(K) and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.(L)
8 The Babylonians[c] set fire(M) to the royal palace and the houses of the people and broke down the walls(N) of Jerusalem.
