8 Now on the seventh day of the fifth month—which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon—Nebuzaradan, the captain of the imperial guard, officer of the Babylonian king, came to Jerusalem.
9 He burned down the House of Adonai, the royal palace and all the houses of Jerusalem—every notable building he burned with fire.
10 Then the whole Chaldean army that was with the captain of the guard demolished the walls of Jerusalem on every side.
11 Then the remnant of the people who were left in the city—the deserters who had defected to the Babylonian king and the rest of the populace—Nebuzaradan captain of the guard exiled them.
12 But the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and field hands.
13 Now the Chaldeans broke into pieces the bronze pillars that were in the House of Adonai, the stands and the bronze sea that were in the House of Adonai, and carried their bronze away to Babylon.
14 They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the pans and all the bronze vessels that were used in Temple service.
