Jeremiah 39:2-5

2 In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city. 3 Then all ^athe officials of the king of Babylon came ^band sat in the middle gate: Nergal-sar-ezer of Samgar, Nebu-sar-sekim ^cthe Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag, with all the rest of the officers of the king of Babylon. 4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled, going out of the city at night by way of the king’s garden through the gate between the two walls; and they went toward ^dthe Arabah. 5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in ^ethe plains of Jericho. And when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, at ^fRiblah, in the land of Hamath; ^gand he passed sentence on him.
