1Zedekiah was 21 when he started flexing as king, and he ruled for 11 years in Jerusalem. His mom's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.

2He was lowkey doing bad stuff in God's eyes, just like Jehoiakim did.

3The Lord was mad, so in Jerusalem and Judah, Zedekiah went rogue against the king of Babylon.

4In the ninth year of his reign, on the tenth month and day, Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, rolled up with his whole squad against Jerusalem, building forts all around it.

5So the city was under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.

6In the fourth month, on the ninth day, the city was starving hard; no bread for the people, fr.

7Then the city got wrecked, and all the warriors dipped out at night through the gate by the king’s garden; the Chaldeans were surrounding the city, but they bounced through the plains.

8The Chaldean army chased the king down and caught Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; his whole crew was scattered.

9They took the king and brought him to the king of Babylon in Riblah, where he got judged.

10The king of Babylon straight-up executed Zedekiah's sons right in front of him and took out all the princes of Judah in Riblah.

11They straight up took out Zedekiah's eyes; the king of Babylon had him chained up and sent to prison in Babylon till he passed away. No cap.

12In the fifth month, on the tenth day, in Nebuchadnezzar’s 19th year, Nebuzar-adan, the guard captain, rolled up to Jerusalem. Lit vibes.

13He burned down the Lord's house, the king’s crib, and all the dope spots in Jerusalem, even the rich folks' pads. Savage.

14The whole Chaldean squad with the guard captain wrecked all the walls of Jerusalem. Pop off.

15Nebuzar-adan took some of the poor peeps captive and grabbed the rest of the folks chillin' in the city, plus those who switched sides to the king of Babylon. Bussin'.

16But Nebuzar-adan left some of the poor to be farmers and take care of the land. Bet.

17They smashed the brass pillars from the Lord's house, plus the bases and the big brass sea, and took all that brass to Babylon. Fr.

18They also grabbed the caldrons, shovels, snuffers, bowls, spoons, and all the brass utensils they used. No cap.

19The basins, firepans, bowls, caldrons, candlesticks, spoons, and cups; they took all the gold stuff and silver stuff too. Goated.

20The two pillars, one sea, and twelve brass bulls under the bases that Solomon made were all brass, and the weight of it was crazy. Periodt.

21So like, one pillar was eighteen cubits tall, had this twelve cubit vibe around it, and was four fingers thick, totally hollow.

22On top, it had this brass chapiter, five cubits high, with some dope network and pomegranates all around, all brass vibes. The second pillar was just as lit.

23There were ninety-six pomegranates on each side, and all around the network, there were a hundred pomegranates, no cap.

24The captain of the guard snatched up Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the second priest, and the three door keepers, straight up.

25He also took an eunuch who was in charge of the soldiers, plus seven guys close to the king, and the main scribe who counted the peeps in the land, and sixty more from the city.

26So Nebuzar–adan, the captain of the guard, took them all and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah, periodt.

27The king of Babylon took them out, smote them, and put them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath. Judah was straight up taken captive from his own land, fr.

28This is the crew Nebuchadrezzar took captive: in the seventh year, three thousand Jews and twenty-three, lit.

29In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar, he took eight hundred thirty-two from Jerusalem, no cap.

30In the twenty-third year, Nebuzar–adan took seven hundred forty-five Jews captive: all in all, four thousand six hundred were taken, savage.

31So like, in the 37th year of Jehoiachin's struggle, in the 12th month, on the 25th day, Evil-merodach, the king of Babylon, was like, "Bet," and pulled Jehoiachin outta prison.

32He was all nice to him and put his throne above all the other kings in Babylon, vibin' high.

33He switched up Jehoiachin's prison drip and made sure he was munchin' on bread in front of him every day.

34The king of Babylon kept him on a daily bread plan, no cap, till the end of his days.

1Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

2And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

3For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

4And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it, and built forts against it round about.

5So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.

6And in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.

7Then the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden; (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about:) and they went by the way of the plain.

8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.

9Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; where he gave judgment upon him.

10And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.

11Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in chains, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.

12Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar–adan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,

13And burned the house of the Lord, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, burned he with fire:

14And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.

15Then Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard carried away captive certain of the poor of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.

16But Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard left certain of the poor of the land for vinedressers and for husbandmen.

17Also the pillars of brass that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans brake, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.

18The caldrons also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.

19And the basons, and the firepans, and the bowls, and the caldrons, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the cups; that which was of gold in gold, and that which was of silver in silver, took the captain of the guard away.

20The two pillars, one sea, and twelve brasen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

21And concerning the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a fillet of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers: it was hollow.

22And a chapiter of brass was upon it; and the height of one chapiter was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The second pillar also and the pomegranates were like unto these.

23And there were ninety and six pomegranates on a side; and all the pomegranates upon the network were an hundred round about.

24And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:

25He took also out of the city an eunuch, which had the charge of the men of war; and seven men of them that were near the king’s person, which were found in the city; and the principal scribe 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.

26So Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.

27And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Hamath. Thus Judah was carried away captive out of his own land.

28This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty:

29In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty and two persons:

30In the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.

31And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil–merodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison,

32And spake kindly unto him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,

33And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eat bread before him all the days of his life.

34And for his diet, there was a continual diet given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
