Jeremiah 52:12-16
12 On the tenth day of the fifth month—which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon—Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, entered Jerusalem as the representative of(a) the king of Babylon.
13 He burned the Lord’s temple, the king’s palace, all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the nobles.
14 The whole Chaldean army with the commander of the guards tore down all the walls surrounding Jerusalem.(A)
15 Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, deported some of the poorest of the people, as well as the rest of the people who were left in the city, the deserters who had defected to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the craftsmen.
16 But some of the poorest people of the land Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, left to be vinedressers and farmers.(B)
