3 By the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine in the city was so severe that the people of the land had no food.

5 but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook him in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was separated from him.

6 The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where they pronounced judgment on him.
