¶ The .xxxix. Chapter.
¶ Nabuchodonosor besegeth Ierusalem. Zedekiah
fleeth. He hys taken of þe; Chaldees. Hys sonnes are
slayne. His eyes are thrust oute. Ieremy is prouyded
for. Abedmelech delyuered from captiuitie, because
of the confydence that he hath in God.
A Nowe note when the cytie of Ierusalem
was taken (for in the ix. yeare of Zedekiah
Kynge of Iuda in the tenth
Moneth, came Nabuchodonosor the king of
Babylon ∧ all his hoste, and beseged Ierusalem
∧ foughte agenst it. And in the .xi. yeare
of Zedekiah in the fourth Moneth þe; .ix. daye
of the Moneth, he brake into the cytie.) Th&ebar;
all the princes of the king of Babylon, came
in, ∧ sat them downe vnder the porte: Neregel,
Sarezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsachim,
Rabsaris, Neregel, Sarezer, Rabmag, &wt;
all the other princes of the Kynge of Babylon.
noteAnd when Zedekiah the Kynge of Iuda
with hys soudiers sawe them, they fled,
and departed out of the cytie by nyght thorowe
the kynges garden, ∧ thorowe the porte
that is betwene þe; two walles, and so they
wente towarde the wyldernesse.
B But the Caldees Hoste folowed faste after
them, and toke Zedekiah in the felde of Iericho,
and brought hym presoner to Nabuchodonosor
þe; kynge of Babylon vnto Reblath,
that lyeth in the land of Hemath where
he gaue iudgement vpon him. So þe; kyng of
Babylon caused the chyldr&ebar; of Zedekiah and
-- --
all the nobles of Iuda be slayne, before hys
face at Reblath. And made Zedekias eyes to
be put out, and bounde him with two chaynes,
and sent him to Babylon.
C noteMoreouer, the Caldees brent vp the
kynges palace, with the other houses of the
people, and brake downe the walles of Ierusalem.
As for the remnaunt of the people þt;
were in the cytie, and soch as were come to
helpe th&ebar; (whatsoeuer was left of þe; com&ebar; sorte)
Nabuzaradan the chefe captayne caryed
th&ebar; to Babylon. But Nabuzarad&abar; the chefe
captayne let the rascall people (∧ those that
had nothinge) dwell styll in the lande of Iuda,
and gaue them vineyardes ∧ corne feldes
at the same tyme. Nabuchodonosor also the
kynge of Babylon gaue Nabuzaradan the
chefe captayne a charge, concernynge Ieremy,
sayinge: take and cherish hym, and make
moche of him: se thou do hym no harme, but
intreate him after his awne desyre.
So Nabuzaradan the chefe captayne, Nabusazban
Rabsares, Nergal Sarezer Rabmag
and all the kynge of Babylons Lordes
sent for Ieremy note and caused hym to be fet
out of the fore entrye of the preson, ∧ c&obar;mitted
him vnto Godoliah the sonne of Ahikam
the sonne of Saphan:
D that he shulde carye h&ibar;
home, note and so he dwelt amonge the people.
Now whyle Ieremy laye yet bounde in the
fore entrie of the preson, þe; worde of the Lord
came vnto him, sayinge: Goo and tell Abedmelech
the Morian: Thus sayeth the Lorde
of Hostes the God of Israel: Beholde, the
cruell and sharpe plage that I haue deuysed
for this cytie, will I bringe vpon them, that
thou shalt se it: but I wyll delyuer þe; (sayeth
the Lorde) and thou shalt not come in þe; handes
of those men, whom thou fearest. For
doutles I wyll saue the, so that thou shalt
not perish &wt; the swearde: but thy lyfe shalbe
saued, &abar;d that because thou hast put thy trust
in me, sayeth the Lorde.
