10 E todo o exército dos caldeus que estava com o capitão da guarda, derrubou os muros de Jerusalém ao redor.

11 E aos do povo que haviam restado na cidade, e aos que se haviam juntado ao rei da Babilônia, e aos que haviam restado da população, transportou-o Nebuzaradã, capitão dos da guarda.

12 Mas dos pobres da terra deixou Nebuzaradã, capitão dos da guarda, para que lavrassem as vinhas e as terras.

13 E quebraram os caldeus as colunas de bronze que estavam na casa do SENHOR, e as bases, e o mar de bronze que estava na casa do SENHOR, e levaram o bronze disso à Babilônia.

14 Levaram-se também as caldeiras, e as pás, e as tenazes, e as colheres, e todos os vasos de bronze com que ministravam.
