*
All the leading priests and the people likewise were exceedingly unfaithful ,
following all the abominations of the nations ;
and they polluted the house of the LORD which he had hallowed in Jerusalem .
*
The LORD ,
the God of their fathers ,
sent persistently to them by his messengers ,
because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place ;
*
but they kept mocking the messengers of God ,
despising his words ,
and scoffing at his prophets ,
till the wrath of the LORD rose against his people ,
till there was no remedy .
*
Therefore he brought up against them the king of the Chalde '
ans ,
who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary ,
and had no compassion on young man or virgin ,
old man or aged ;
he gave them all into his hand .
*
And all the vessels of the house of God ,
great and small ,
and the treasures of the house of the LORD ,
and the treasures of the king and of his princes ,
all these he brought to Babylon .
*
And they burned the house of God ,
and broke down the wall of Jerusalem ,
and burned all its palaces with fire ,
and destroyed all its precious vessels .
