10. And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.

11. Now the rest of the people that were left in the city and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, carried away.

12. But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.

13. And the Chaldees broke in pieces the pillars of brass that were in the house of the Lord and the bases and the brasen sea that was in the house of the Lord and carried the brass of them to Babylon.

14. They also took away the pots and the shovels and the snuffers and the spoons and all the vessels of brass, with which they ministered.

15. And the censers and the bowls and such things as were of gold in gold and of silver in silver the captain of the guard took away, also

16. the two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

18. And the captain of the guard took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the door;

19. and out of the city he took a eunuch, that was set over the men of war, and five men of those that were in the king’s presence, who were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, who mustered the people of the land, with sixty men of the people of the land that were found in the city.

20. Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, took these and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
