And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah, on the ninth day of the month.

And the city was broken up, and all the men of war went forth by night, by the way of the gate between the walls (this is [the gate] of the king's garden). And the Chaldeans [were set] against the city round about; and [the king] went by the way of the plain.

And the word of the Lord came to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth [day] of the month, saying,

Son of man, write down the name of the day, this very day, on which the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem, [even] from this day.

Thus says the Lord Almighty, The fourth fast, and the fifth fast, and the seventh fast, and the tenth fast, shall be to the house of Judah for joy and gladness, and for good feasts; and you shall rejoice; therefore love the truth, and peace.
