⁴ When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, they ^(A)fled and went out of the city at night by way of the king’s garden through the gate ^(B)between the two walls; and he went out toward the ^[a]Arabah. ⁵ But the army of the ^(C)Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the ^(D)plains of Jericho; and they seized him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at ^(E)Riblah in the land of Hamath, and he passed sentence on him. ⁶ Then the ^(F)king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah ^(G)before his eyes at Riblah; the king of Babylon also slew all the ^(H)nobles of Judah. ⁷ He then ^(I)blinded Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in ^(J)fetters of bronze to bring him to ^(K)Babylon.
