2 Kings 25:10–20

¹⁰and the walls of Jerusalem round about have all the forces of the Chaldeans, who are with the chief of the executioners, broken down. ¹¹And the rest of the people, those left in the city, and those falling who have fallen to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude, hath Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners removed; ¹²and of the poor of the land hath the chief of the executioners left for vine-dressers and for husbandmen. ¹³And the pillars of brass that are in the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the sea of brass, that is in the house of Jehovah, have the Chaldeans broken in pieces, and bear away their brass to Babylon. ¹⁴And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they minister they have taken, ¹⁵and the fire-pans, and the bowls that are wholly of silver, hath the chief of the executioners taken. ¹⁶The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases that Solomon made for the house of Jehovah, there was no weighing of the brass of all these vessels; ¹⁷eighteen cubits is the height of the one pillar, and the chapiter on it is of brass, and the height of the chapiter is three cubits, and the net and the pomegranates are on the chapiter round about—the whole is of brass; and like these hath the second pillar, with the net. ¹⁸And the chief of the executioners taketh Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold, ¹⁹and out of the city he hath taken a certain eunuch who is appointed over the men of war, and five men of those seeing the king’s face who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who mustereth the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land who are found in the city, ²⁰and Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners taketh them, and causeth them to go unto the king of Babylon, to Libnah,
