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.
28 This is the number of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar deported: in the seventh year, three thousand twenty-three Judeans; 29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred and thirty-two persons[h] from Jerusalem; 30 in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard,[i] deported seven hundred and forty-five Judean persons;[j] there were four thousand six hundred persons[k] in all.

The People Exiled to Babylon
24 And the captain of the guard took (A)Seraiah the chief priest, and (B)Zephaniah the second priest and the three keepers of the threshold; 25 and from the city he took an officer who had been in command of the men of war, and (C)seven men of the king's council, who were found in the city; and the secretary of the commander of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who 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 at (D)Riblah. 27 And the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death at (E)Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was taken into exile out of its land.
