2 Kings 25:5Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him. See the chapter |
Afterward, says the Lord, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people in this city who survive the pestilence, sword, and famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of their enemies, into the hand of those who seek their lives. He shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he shall not pity them, or spare them, or have compassion.’
