Jeremiah 52:9
Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; where he gave judgment upon him.
Then they took the king,.... King Zedekiah, being left alone, excepting some few with him:
and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; which is supposed to be Antioch in Syria:
where he gave judgment upon him; or "spake with him judgments" {r}: chided and reproached him for his perfidy and ingratitude; expostulated and reasoned with him upon this subject, exposing his iniquity; and then passed sentence upon him, which was after executed;
