and the wreathen work{H7639}, and pomegranates{H7416} upon the chapiter{H3805} round about{H5439}, all of brass{H5178}: and like unto these had the second{H8145} pillar{H5982} with wreathen work{H7639}. 18 And the captain{H7227} of the guard{H2876} took{H3947}{(H8799)} Seraiah{H8304} the chief{H7218} priest{H3548}, and Zephaniah{H6846} the second{H4932} priest{H3548}, and the three{H7969} keepers{H8104}{(H8802)} of the door{H5592}: 19 And out of the city{H5892} he took{H3947}{(H8804)} an{H259} officer{H5631} that was set{H6496} over the men{H582} of war{H4421}, and five{H2568} men{H582} of them that were{H7200}{(H8802)} in the king's{H4428} presence{H6440}, which were found{H4672}{(H8738)} in the city{H5892}, and the principal{H8269} scribe{H5608}{(H8802)} of the host{H6635}, which mustered{H6633}{(H8688)} the people{H5971} of the land{H776}, and threescore{H8346} men{H376} of the people{H5971} of the land{H776} that were found{H4672}{(H8737)} in the city{H5892}: 20 And Nebuzaradan{H5018} captain{H7227} of the guard{H2876} took{H3947}{(H8799)} these, and brought{H3212}{(H8686)} them to the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} to Riblah{H7247}: 21 And the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} smote{H5221}{(H8686)} them, and slew{H4191}{(H8686)} them at Riblah{H7247} in the land{H776} of Hamath{H2574}. So Judah{H3063} was carried away{H1540}{(H8799)} out of their land{H127}. 22 And as for the people{H5971} that remained{H7604}{(H8737)} in the land{H776} of Judah{H3063}, whom Nebuchadnezzar{H5019} king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} had left{H7604}{(H8689)}, even over them he made Gedaliah{H1436} the son{H1121} of Ahikam{H296}, the son{H1121} of Shaphan{H8227}, ruler{H6485}{(H8686)}. 23 And when all the captains{H8269} of the armies{H2428}, they and their men{H582}, heard{H8085}{(H8799)} that the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} had made Gedaliah{H1436} governor{H6485}{(H8689)}, there came{H935}{(H8799)} to Gedaliah{H1436} to Mizpah{H4709}, even Ishmael{H3458} the son{H1121} of Nethaniah{H5418}, and Johanan{H3110} the son{H1121} of Careah{H7143}, and Seraiah{H8304} the son{H1121} of Tanhumeth{H8576} the Netophathite{H5200}, and Jaazaniah{H2970} the son{H1121} of a Maachathite{H4602}, they and their men{H582}. 24 And Gedaliah{H1436} sware{H7650}{(H8735)} to them, and to their men{H582}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Fear{H3372}{(H8799)} not to be the servants{H5650} of the Chaldees{H3778}: dwell{H3427}{(H8798)} in the land{H776}, and serve{H5647}{(H8798)} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894}; and it shall be well{H3190}{(H8799)} with you. 25 But it came to pass in the seventh{H7637} month{H2320}, that Ishmael{H3458} the son{H1121} of Nethaniah{H5418}, the son{H1121} of Elishama{H476}, of the seed{H2233} royal{H4410}, came{H935}{(H8804)}, and ten{H6235} men{H582} with him, and smote{H5221}{(H8686)} Gedaliah{H1436}, that he died{H4191}{(H8799)}, and the Jews{H3064} and the Chaldees{H3778} that were with him at Mizpah{H4709}. 26 And all the people{H5971}, both small{H6996} and great{H1419}, and the captains{H8269} of the armies{H2428}, arose{H6965}{(H8799)}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} to Egypt{H4714}: for they were afraid{H3372}{(H8804)} of{H6440} the Chaldees{H3778}. 27 And it came to pass in the seven{H7651} and thirtieth{H7970} year{H8141} of the captivity{H1546} of Jehoiachin{H3078} king{H4428} of Judah{H3063}, in the twelfth{H8147}{H6240} month{H2320}, on the seven{H7651} and twentieth{H6242} day of the month{H2320}, that Evilmerodach{H192} king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} in the year{H8141} that he began to reign{H4427}{(H8800)} did lift up{H5375}{(H8804)} the head{H7218} of Jehoiachin{H3078} king{H4428} of Judah{H3063} out of prison{H1004}{H3608};
