25 He took also out of the city an Eunuch, which had the oversight of the men of war, and [b]seven men that were in the King’s presence, which were found in the city, and Sopher captain 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.
26 Nebuzaradan the chief steward took them, and brought them to the King of Babel to Riblah.
