12 (A)Now on the tenth day of the fifth month, which was the (B)nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, (C)Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard, (a)who was in the service of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem. 13 He (D)burned the house of the Lord, the (E)king’s house and all the houses of Jerusalem; even every large house he burned with fire. 14 So all the army of the Chaldeans who were with the captain of the guard (F)broke down all the walls around Jerusalem. 15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard (G)carried away into exile some of the poorest of the people, the rest of the people who were left in the city, the (b)(H)deserters who had deserted to the king of Babylon and the rest of the artisans.
