All the officials of the king of Babylon entered and sat at the Middle Gate: Nergal-sharezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim the Rab-saris, Nergal-sharezer the Rab-mag, and all the rest of the officials of Babylon's king.

Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, deported to Babylon the rest of the people-- those who had remained in the city and those deserters who had defected to him along with the rest of the people who had remained.
