2 On the ninth day of the fourth month, in the eleventh year of the reign of[a] Zedekiah, the wall of[b] the city was breached. 3 All the officials of the king of Babylon came and sat in the Middle Gate, including[c] Nergal-sarri-usur, governor[d] of Sinmagir,[e] Nabu-sarrussu-ukin the high official,[f] Nergal-sarri-user, the chief official,[g] and[h] all the rest of the officials of the king of Babylon.
