2 Kings 25:5 in Context — 2 Kings 25

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.

6 Ils saisirent le roi, et le firent monter vers le roi de Babylone à Ribla; et l’on prononça contre lui une sentence.

7 Les fils de Sédécias furent égorgés en sa présence; puis on creva les yeux à Sédécias, on le lia avec des chaînes d’airain, et on le mena à Babylone.
