3. For because of the anger of the Lord against Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out of his presence, Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4. Therefore it came to pass after nine years of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem and pitched camp against it and built forts against it round about.
5. So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
