RF JER 39:1 The Capture of Jerusalem.
And when Jerusalem had been attacked in the tenth month of the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babel, and all his forces, came to Jerusalem and besieged it;
RF JER 39:2 and in the eleventh year of Zedekiah in the ninth day of the fourth month, the city was breached.
RF JER 39:3 Then all the generals of the king of Babel came and stationed themselves at the central gate;—Nergal, Sharatzer, Samgarnebo, Sarskim, High Chamberlain; Nergal, Sharatzer, the High-magus; and all the rest of the generals of the king of Babel.
RF JER 39:4 And when Zedekiah king of Judah and all his soldiers saw them, they fled, and went out of the city by night by the road of the king's garden, at the gate between the walls, and proceeded towards the Arbah.
RF JER 39:5 But the Kasdim pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah at the fords of the Jordan, and seized and brought him to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babel, at Riblath, in the district of Khamah, when he pronounced judgment upon him.
RF JER 39:6 And the king of Babel murdered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes in Riblah. The king of Babel also slew all the soldiers of Judah.
RF JER 39:7 Then he pulled out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in chains, and sent him to Babel.
RF JER 39:8 The Kasdim also burnt the palaces of the king, and the houses of the people with fire, and threw down the walls of Jerusalem.
RF JER 39:9 But the residue of the people remaining in the city, and the deserters who had deserted to him, and the rest of the people remaining, Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, transferred to Babel.
RF JER 39:10 Yet some of the lower people, who possessed nothing whatever, Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, left in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and farms.
RF JER 39:11 Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babel, also ordered Jeremiah to the protection of Nebuzaradan, commander of the guards, saying,
RF JER 39:12 "Take him, and keep your yes on him, that no injury whatever may be done to him, and whatever he requests you, do it for him."
RF JER 39:13 Then he dismissed Nebuzaradan, the commander of the Guards, and Nebushazbaz, the High Chamberlain, and Nergal-Sharatzer, the High Magus, and all the nobles of the king of Babel,
RF JER 39:14 and they sent and took Jeremiah from the court of the Guards, and placed him with Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam-ben-Shafan, to take him to his home. So he stayed among the People.

1 NOTE—Ch. 39, v. 10. (To this time.) The words "to this time" are an old copyist's comment, not the prophet's writing, so I put them at the foot.—F.F.
RF JER 39:15 The Promise to Abd-Melek.
But the command of the EVER-LIVING had come to Jeremiah while he was confined in the court of the guards to say:"
RF JER 39:16 Go and speak of Abd-melek, the Kushite, and say,—Thus says the LORD OF HOSTS, the GOD of Israel! I will bring My promise upon this city for misery, and not for benefit! And they are before you to-day!
RF JER 39:17 But I will rescue you at present," says the EVER-LIVING, "and you shall not be given into the hand of the men you fear.
RF JER 39:18 For I will be a refuge for you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but your life shall be a gain to you,—for you have trusted in Me," says the EVER-LIVING.
