Jeremiah 52:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive some of the poorest of the people and those who were left in the city [at the time it was captured], along with those who went out to the king of Babylon [during the siege] and the remnant of the multitude [the country’s working people].

¹⁶ But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and tillers of the soil.

¹⁷ Also the pillars of bronze that belonged to the house of the Lord, and the bronze bases or pedestals [which supported the ten basins] and the bronze Sea or huge laver that were in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke into pieces and carried all the bronze of them to Babylon.
