note
Ierusalem after two yeares siege is taken by the Chaldees: 4. king Sedecias
with others, fleing by a posterne gate, is taken, brought to the king of
Babylon, al his sonnes are slaine, his eyes put out, and so led into Babylon.
8. The kinges palace and the towne house are burned; the walles
of the citie destroyed, the people caried captiue, only the poorest left to til
the ground. 11. Ieremias is deliuered. 15. And Abdemelech is saued
from danger.
1 In the ninth yeare of Sedecias the king of Iuda, the
tenth moneth, came Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon,
and al his armie to Ierusalem, and they besieged it.
2 And
in the eleuenth yeare of Sedecias, the fourth moneth, the
ninth of the moneth the citie was opened.
3 And al the princes
of the king of Babylon went in, and note sate in the midle gate:
Neregal, Sereser, Semegarnabu, Sarsachim, Rabsares, Neregel,
Serezer, Rebmag, and al the rest of the princes of the king of
Babylon.
4 And when Sedecias the king of Iuda, and al the
men of warre had seene them, they fled: and they went forth
in the night out of the citie by the way of the kinges garden,
and by the gate, that was betwen the two walles, and they
went out to the way of the desert.
5 But the host of the Chaldees
pursued them: and they tooke Sedecias in the field of
the desert of Iericho, and being taken they brought him to
Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon into Reblatha, which is in
the Land of Emath: and he spake vnto him note iudgements.
6 And the king of Babylon killed the sonnes of Sedecias in
Reblatha, before his eies: and the king of Babylon killed al
the nobles of Iuda.
7 The eies also of Sedecias he plucked out:
and bound him with fetters, to be led into Babylon.
8 The
kinges house also, and the house of the common people the
Chaldees burnt with fire, and they ouerthrew the wal of Ierusalem.
9 And the remnant of the people, that remayned in
the citie, and the fugitiues that were fled to him, and the rest
of the people that remained, Nabuzardan the prince of the
soldiars transported into Babylon.
10 And the poore people,
-- --
that had nothing at al, Nabuzardan the master of the soldiars
let alone in the land of Iuda, and he gaue them vineyards, and
cesternes in that day.
11 But Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon
had commanded Nabuzardan the prince of the soldiars
concerning Ieremie, saying:
12 Take him, and set thine eies
vpon him, and doe him no euil: but as he wil so doe to him.
13 Nabuzardan therefore the prince of the warfare sent; and
Nabusezban also, and Rabsares, and Negerel, & Sereser, and
Rebmag, and al the nobles of the king of Babylon,
14 sent, and
tooke Ieremie out of the entrie of the prison, and deliuered
him to Godolias the sonne of Ahicam the sonne of Saphan,
that he might enter into the house, & dwel among the people.
15 But to Ieremie the word of our Lord was made, when he
was shut vp in the entrie of the prison, saying: Goe, and tel
Abdemelech the Æthiopian, saying:
16 Thus saith the Lord of
hostes the God of Israel: Behold I wil bring my wordes vpon
this citie vnto euil, and not vnto good: and they shal be in thy
sight in that day.
17 And I wil deliuer thee in that day, saith our
Lord: and thou shalt not be deliuered into the handes of the
men, whom thou fearest:
18 but deliuering I wil deliuer thee,
and thou shalt not fal by the sword: but thy life shal be to thee
vnto saluation, because thou hast had confidence in me, saith
our Lord.
