2 Chronicles 36:17-21

New International Version

¹⁷ He brought up against them the king of the Babylonians,^[a](A) who killed their young men with the sword in the sanctuary, and did not spare young men^(B) or young women, the elderly or the infirm.^(C) God gave them all into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar.^{(D) 18} He carried to Babylon all the articles^(E) from the temple of God, both large and small, and the treasures of the Lord’s temple and the treasures of the king and his officials. ¹⁹ They set fire^(F) to God’s temple^(G) and broke down the wall^(H) of Jerusalem; they burned all the palaces and destroyed^(I) everything of value there.^(J)

²⁰ He carried into exile^(K) to Babylon the remnant, who escaped from the sword, and they became servants^(L) to him and his successors until the kingdom of Persia came to power. ²¹ The land enjoyed its sabbath rests;^(M) all the time of its desolation it rested,^(N) until the seventy years^(O) were completed in fulfillment of the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah.
