The Chaldean army pursues the king, and they capture him and carry him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah

갈대아 군사가 왕을 쫓아가서 잡아 립나 바벨론 왕에게로 끌고 감

2 Kings 25:4–7: while the Chaldeans are against the city around it, a breach is made in the city, and all the men of war flee by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden; and the king goes by the way of the Arabah. But the Chaldean army pursues the king, and overtakes him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army is scattered from him. Then they capture the king and carry him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they pass judgment on him. They kill Zedekiah’s sons before his eyes, then put out Zedekiah’s eyes, bind him in fetters, and carry him to Babylon. At 25:4 the Korean Revised Version has all the soldiers go by the way of the Arabah (모든 군사가 … 아라바 길로 가더니), where WEB has the king go that way; it names the Chaldean army (갈대아 군사가), where WEB reads “they” (25:6), and writes 립나 for Riblah.
