"In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land. "
— Jeremiah 52:6, American Standard Version
“And in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.”
“In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.”
“By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine in the city was so severe the residents had no food.”
“And in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a famine overpowered the city: and there was no food for the people of the land.”
“In the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the store of food in the town was almost gone, so that there was no food for the people of the land.”
“And in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.”
For through the anger of Jehovah did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
And it came to pass in the ninth year 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 encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth 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 round about); and they went toward the Arabah.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after 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 unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment upon him.
