4 E sucedeu que, Zedequias, rei de Judá, e todos os homens de guerra, quando os viram, fugiram, e saíram de noite da cidade pelo caminho do jardim do rei, pela porta entre os dois muros; e saíram pelo caminho de Arabá.

5 Porém o exército dos caldeus os perseguiu, e alcançaram a Zedequias nas plancíes de Jericó; e o prenderam, e o fizeram subir a Nabucodonosor rei da Babilônia, a Ribla, na terra de Hamate; e ele sentenciou.

6 E o rei da Babilônia degolou os filhos de Zedequias em Ribla diante de seus olhos; o rei da Babilônia também degolou a todos os nobres de Judá.
