3 tous les chefs du roi de Babylone s’avancèrent, et occupèrent la porte du milieu: Nergal-Scharetser, Samgar-Nebu, Sarsekim, chef des eunuques, Nergal-Scharetser, chef des mages, et tous les autres chefs du roi de Babylone.
4 Dès que Sédécias, roi de Juda, et tous les gens de guerre les eurent vus, ils s’enfuirent, et sortirent de la ville pendant la nuit par le chemin du jardin du roi, par la porte entre les deux murs, et ils prirent le chemin de la plaine.
5 Mais l’armée des Chaldéens les poursuivit, et atteignit Sédécias dans les plaines de Jéricho. Ils le prirent, et le firent monter vers Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, à Ribla, dans le pays de Hamath; et il prononça contre lui une sentence.
6 Le roi de Babylone fit égorger à Ribla les fils de Sédécias en sa présence; le roi de Babylone fit aussi égorger tous les grands de Juda.
7 Puis il fit crever les yeux à Sédécias, et le fit lier avec des chaînes d’airain, pour l’emmener à Babylone.
