2 Chronicles 36:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 And they burnt the house of God, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and all the precious vessels thereof, to destroy all.
20 And they that were left by the sword, carried he away to Babel, and they were servants to him, and to his sons, until the kingdom of the [a]Persians had rule,
21 To fulfill the word of the Lord by the [b]mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had her fill of her Sabbaths: for all the days that she lay desolate, she kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.
