Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
1Ὄντος εἰκοστοῦ καὶ ἑνὸς ἔτους Σεδεκίου, ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἕνδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Ἀμειτάαλ, θυγάτηρ Ἱερεμίου, ἐκ Λοβενά.
2And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.

3For the wrath of the Lord was against Jerusalem, and against Juda, till he cast them out from his presence: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.
no verse 3 in this text
4And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, the tenth day of the month, that Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and they besieged it, and built forts against it round about.
4Καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ ἔτει τῷ ἐννάτῳ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, ἐν μηνὶ τῷ ἐννάτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἦλθε Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δύναμις αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ περιεχαράκωσαν αὐτὴν, καὶ περιῳκοδόμησαν αὐτὴν τετραπέδοις λίθοις κύκλῳ.
5And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of king Sedecias.
5Καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ πόλις εἰς συνοχὴν, ἕως ἑνδεκάτου ἔτους τῷ βασιλεῖ Σεδεκίᾳ,
6And in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a famine overpowered the city: and there was no food for the people of the land.
6ἐν τῇ ἐννάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς, καὶ ἐστερεώθη ὁ λιμὸς ἐν τῇ πόλει, καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν ἄρτοι τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς.
7And the city was broken up, and the men of war fled, and went out of the city in the night by the way of the gate that is between the two walls, and leadeth to the king’s garden, (the Chaldeans besieging the city round about,) sad they went by the way that leadeth to the wilderness.
7Καὶ διεκόπη ἡ πόλις, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ πολεμισταὶ ἐξῆλθον νυκτὸς κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης, ἀναμέσον τοῦ τείχους, καὶ τοῦ προτειχίσματος, ὃ ἦν κατὰ τὸν κῆπον τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ οἱ Χαλδαῖοι ἐπὶ τῆς πόλεως κύκλῳ, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς ἄραβα,
8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king: and they overtook Sedecias in the desert which is near Jericho: and all his companions were scattered from him.
8Καὶ κατεδίωξεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων ὀπίσω τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ κατέλαβον αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ πέραν Ἱερειχὼ, καὶ πάντες οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ διεσπάρησαν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ.
9And when they had taken the king, they carried him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, which is in the land of Emath: and he gave judgment upon him.
9Καὶ συνέλαβον τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθὰ, καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ μετὰ κρίσεως.
10And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Sedecias before his eyes: and he slew all the princes of Juda in Reblatha.
10Καὶ ἔσφαξε βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος τοὺς υἱοὺς Σεδεκίου κατʼ ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας Ἰούδα ἔσφαξεν ἐν Δεβλαθά.
11And he put out the eyes of Sedecias, and bound him with fetters, and the king of Babylon brought him into Babylon, and he put him in prison till the day of his death.
11Καὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς Σεδεκίου ἐξετύφλωσε, καὶ ἔδησεν αὐτὸν ἐν πέδαις· καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Βαβυλῶνα, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν εἰς οἰκίαν μύλωνος, ἕως ἡμέρας ἧς ἀπέθανε.
12And in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, the same is the nineteenth year of Nabuchodonosor, king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan the general of the army, who stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem.
12Καὶ ἐν μηνὶ πέμπτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἦλθε Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος, ἑστηκὼς κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ,
13And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great house he burnt with fire.
13καὶ ἐνέπρησε τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ πάσας τὰς οἰκίας τῆς πόλεως, καὶ πᾶσαν οἰκίαν μεγάλην ἐνέπρησεν ἐν πυρί·
14And all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the general broke down all the wall of Jerusalem round about.
14Καὶ πᾶν τεῖχος Ἱερουσαλὴμ κύκλῳ καθεῖλεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων, ἡ μετὰ τοῦ ἀρχιμαγείρου.
15But Nabuzardan the general carried away captives some of the poor people, and of the rest of the common sort who remained in the city, and of the fugitives that were fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
no verse 15 in this text
16But of the poor of the land, Nabuzardan the general left some for vinedressers, and for husbandmen.
16Καὶ τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ λαοῦ κατέλιπεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος εἰς ἀμπελουργοὺς καὶ εἰς γεωργούς.
17The Chaldeans also broke in pieces the brazen pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord: and they carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
17Καὶ τοὺς στύλους τοὺς χαλκοῦς τοὺς ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου, καὶ τὰς βάσεις, καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν χαλκῆν τὴν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου συνέτριψαν οἱ Χαλδαῖοι, καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν χαλκὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀπήνεγκαν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
18And they took the caldrons, and the fleshhooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the brazen vessels that had been used in the ministry: and
18Καὶ τὴν στεφάνην, καὶ τὰς φιάλας, καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ χαλκᾶ, ἐν οἷς ἐλειτούργουν ἐν αὐτοῖς,
19The general took away the pitchers, and the censers, and the pots, and the basins, and the candlesticks, and the mortars, and the cups: as many as were of gold, in gold: and as many as were of silver, in silver:
19καὶ τὰς ἀπφὼθ, καὶ τὰς μασμαρὼθ, καὶ τοὺς ὑποχυτῆρας, καὶ τὰς λυχνίας, καὶ τὰς θυΐσκας, καὶ τοὺς κυάθους, ἃ ἦν χρυσᾶ χρυσᾶ, καὶ ἃ ἦν ἀργυρᾶ ἀργυρᾶ, ἔλαβεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος.
20And the two pillars, and one sea, and twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord: there was no weight of the brass of all these vessels.
20Καὶ οἱ στύλοι δύο, καὶ ἡ θάλασσα μία, καὶ οἱ μόσχοι δώδεκα χαλκοῖ ὑποκάτω τῆς θαλάσσης, ἃ ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμὼν εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, οὗ οὐκ ἦν σταθμὸς τοῦ χαλκοῦ αὐτῶν.
21And concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a cord of twelve cubits compassed it about: but the thickness thereof was four fingers, and it was hollow within.
21Καὶ οἱ στύλοι τριακονταπέντε πηχῶν ὕψος τοῦ στύλου τοῦ ἑνὸς, καὶ σπαρτίον δώδεκα πήχεων περιεκύκλου αὐτὸν, καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτοῦ δακτύλων τεσσάρων κύκλῳ,
22And chapiters of brass were upon both: and the height of one chapiter was five cubits: and network, and pomegranates were upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The same of the second pillar, and the pomegranates.
22καὶ γεῖσος ἐπʼ αὐτοῖς χαλκοῦν, καὶ πέντε πήχεων τὸ μῆκος, ὑμεροχὴ τοῦ γείσους τοῦ ἑνός, καὶ δίκτυον καὶ ῥοαὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ γείσους κύκλῳ τὰ πάντα χαλκᾶ, καὶ κατὰ ταῦτα τῷ στύλῳ τῷ δευτέρῳ ὀκτὼ ῥοαὶ τῷ πήχει τοῖς δώδεκα πήχεσι.
23And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down: and the pomegranates being a hundred in all, were compassed with network.
23Καὶ ἦσαν αἱ ῥοαὶ ἐννενηκονταὲξ τὸ ἓν μέρος, καὶ ἦσαν αἱ πᾶσαι ῥοαὶ ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ δικτύου κύκλῳ.
24And the general took Saraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and the three keepers of the entry.
24Καὶ ἔλαβεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τὸν ἱερέα τὸν πρῶτον, καὶ τὸν ἱερέα τὸν δευτεροῦντα, καὶ τοὺς φυλάττοντας τὴν ὁδὸν,
25He also took out of the city one eunuch that was chief over the men of war: and seven men of them that were near the king’s person, that were found in the city: and a scribe, an officer of the army who exercised the young soldiers: and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
25καὶ εὐνοῦχον ἕνα ὃς ἦν ἐπιστάτης τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν πολεμιστῶν, καὶ εὐνοῦχον ἕνα ὃς ἦν ἐπιστάτης ἀνδρῶν τῶν πολεμιστῶν, καὶ ἑπτὰ ἄνδρας ὀνομαστοὺς, τοὺς ἐν προσώπῳ τοῦ βασιλέως, τοὺς εὑρεθέντας ἐν τῇ πόλει, καὶ τὸν γραμματέα τῶν δυνάμεων, τὸν γραμματεύοντα τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἑξήκοντα ἀνθρώπους ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ τῆς γῆς, τοὺς εὑρεθέντας ἐν μέσῳ τῆς πόλεως·
26And Nabuzardan the general took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon, to Reblatha.
26Καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτοὺς Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἢγαγεν αὐτοὺς πρὸς βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθά.
27And the king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death in Reblatha, in the land of Emath: and Juda was carried away captive out of his land.
27Καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν Δεβλαθὰ, ἐν γῇ Αἱμάθ.
28This is the people whom Nabuchodonosor carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews.

31And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Joachin king of Juda, in the twelfth month, the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Joachin king of Juda, and brought him forth out of prison.
31Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τριακοστῷ καὶ ἑβδόμῳ ἔτει, ἀποικισθέντος τοῦ Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα, ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ μηνὶ, ἐν τῇ τετράδι καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνὸς, ἔλαβεν Οὐλαιμαδάχὰρ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος, ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ᾧ ἐβασίλευσε, τὴν κεφαλὴν Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα, καὶ ἔκειρεν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἐξ οἰκίας ἧς ἐφυλάσσετο,
32And he spoke kindly to him, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
32καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ χρηστὰ, καὶ ἔδωκε τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ἐπάνω τῶν βασιλέων τῶν μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι,
33And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread before him always all the days of his life.
33καὶ ἤλλαξε τὴν στολὴν τῆς φυλακῆς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἤσθιεν ἄρτον διαπαντὸς κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἔζησε.
34And for his diet a continual provision was allowed him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
34Καὶ ἡ σύνταξις αὐτῷ ἐδίδοτο διαπαντὸς παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἐξ ἡμέρας εἰς ἡμέραν, ἕως ἡμέρας ἧς ἀπέθανε.
