3
On the ninth day of the [fourth] month the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
4
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war [fled] by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden (now the Kasdim were against the city round about); and [the king] went by the way of the `Aravah.
5
But the army of the Kasdim pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Yericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
6
Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Bavel to Rivlah; and they gave judgment on him.
7
They killed the sons of Tzidkiyahu before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Tzidkiyahu, and bound him in fetters, and carried him to Bavel.
