The army of the Chaldeans overtakes King Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and the king is carried up to the king of Babylon to Riblah

갈대아인의 군대가 여리고 평지에서 시드기야왕에게 미치고 왕이 하맛 땅 립나의 바벨론 왕에게로 끌려감

Jeremiah 52:6–11: in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine is severe in the city, so that there is no bread for the people of the land. The text says, “Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden. Now the Chaldeans were against the city all around. The men of war went toward the Arabah, but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him. Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.” The king of Babylon kills the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also kills all the princes of Judah in Riblah. He puts out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon binds him in fetters, and carries him to Babylon, and puts him in prison until the day of his death. The Korean Revised Version opens 52:7 with 갈대아인이 그 성읍을 에워쌌더니 (the Chaldeans surrounded the city) and goes on with 성벽을 깨뜨리매 (broke the wall) with no other subject, where WEB reads “Then a breach was made in the city” and gives “Now the Chaldeans were against the city all around” after the flight; at 52:9 it names no one who questioned him (그를 신문하니라, questioned him), where WEB reads “he pronounced judgment on him”; and it writes 립나 for Riblah.
