2 Kings 25:3 in Context — 2 Kings 25

1 La neuvième année du règne de Sédécias, le dixième jour du dixième mois, Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, vint avec toute son armée contre Jérusalem; il campa devant elle, et éleva des retranchements tout autour.

2 La ville fut assiégée jusqu’à la onzième année du roi Sédécias.

3 Le neuvième jour du mois, la famine était forte dans la ville, et il n’y avait pas de pain pour le peuple du pays.

4 Alors la brèche fut faite à la ville; et tous les gens de guerre s’enfuirent de nuit par le chemin de la porte entre les deux murs près du jardin du roi, pendant que les Chaldéens environnaient la ville. Les fuyards prirent le chemin de la plaine.

5 Mais l’armée des Chaldéens poursuivit le roi et l’atteignit dans les plaines de Jéricho, et toute son armée se dispersa loin de lui.
