Jeremiah 39:2–4

2 In the fourth month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, on the ninth day of the month, the city was broken into.m 3 All the officials of the king of Babylon entered and sat at the Middle Gate: Nergal-sharezer, Samgar, NebusarsechimI the chief of staff, Nergal-sharezer the chief soothsayer, and all the rest of the officials of Babylon’s king.a

4 When King Zedekiah of Judah and all the fighting men saw them, they fled. They left the city at night by way of the king’s gardenb through the city gate between the two walls. They left along the route to the Arabah.c
