10 The Chaldean troops who were with the captain of the guard tore down the walls that surrounded Jerusalem,
11 and Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, led into exile the last of the army remaining in the city, and those who had deserted to the king of Babylon, and the last of the commoners.
12 But some of the country’s poor the captain of the guard left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
13 The bronze columns that belonged to the house of the Lord, and the stands and the bronze sea in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke into pieces; they carried away the bronze to Babylon.
14 They took also the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the cups and all the bronze articles used for service.
15 The fire pans and the bowls that were of solid gold or silver the captain of the guard also carried off.
16 The two columns, the one bronze sea, and the stands, which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord—the weight in bronze of all these articles was never calculated.
