Parallel

Jeremiah 52:7

Berean Standard Bible · Westminster Leningrad Codex

Then the city was breached; and though the Chaldeans (note: That is, the Babylonians; similarly in verses 8, 9, 14, and 17) had surrounded the city, all the men of war fled the city by night by way of the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden. They headed toward the Arabah (note: Or the Jordan Valley),
וַתִּבָּקַ֣ע הָעִ֗יר וְכָל־ אַנְשֵׁ֣י הַמִּלְחָמָ֡ה יִבְרְחוּ֩ וַיֵּצְא֨וּ מֵהָעִ֜יר לַ֗יְלָה דֶּ֜רֶךְ שַׁ֤עַר בֵּין־ הַחֹמֹתַ֙יִם֙ אֲשֶׁר֙ עַל־ גַּ֣ן הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ וְכַשְׂדִּ֥ים עַל־ הָעִ֖יר סָבִ֑יב וַיֵּלְכ֖וּ דֶּ֥רֶךְ הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
