Jeremiah 52:24-30
Lexham English Bible
24 Then the captain of the guard[a] took Seraiah the chief priest,[b] and Zephaniah the second priest,[c] and three keepers of the threshold. 25 And from the city he took one high official who was chief officer over the soldiers,[d] and seven men of the king’s advisors[e] who were found in the city, and the secretary of the commander of the army who levied for military service the people of the land, and sixty men[f] of the people of the land who were found in the midst of the city. 26 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard[g] took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah. 27 And the king of Babylon struck them down and killed them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah left from its land.

American Standard Version
24 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold: 25 and out of the city he took an [a]officer that was set over the men of war; and seven men of them that saw the king’s face, that were found in the city; and the scribe of the 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 And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah. 27 And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
