(Jeremiah 52:8-11) And a military force of the Chal·de′ans went chasing after the king, and they got to overtake Zed·e·ki′ah in the desert plains of Jer′i·cho; and all his own military force was scattered from his side. 9Then they seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Rib′lah in the land of Ha′math, that he might pronounce upon him judicial decisions. 10And the king of Babylon proceeded to slaughter the sons of Zed·e·ki′ah before his eyes, and also all the princes of Judah he slaughtered in Rib′lah. 11And the eyes of Zed·e·ki′ah he blinded, after which the king of Babylon bound him with copper fetters and brought him to Babylon and put him in the house of custody until the day of his death.
