2 Kings 25:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ And on the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.

⁴ Then the city was broken up. And all the men of war fled by night, by way of the gate between two walls that was by the king’s garden. Now the Chaldeans were by the city, all around. And the king went by way of the wilderness.

⁵ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king and took him in the deserts of Jericho. And all his army was scattered from him.
