~ Temple Furnishings Not First Moved to Babylon ~

For this is what the Lord Almighty says
about the pillars, the Sea, the movable stands
and the other furnishings that are left in this city,
which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
did not take away when he carried Jehoiachin
son of Jehoiakim king of Judah
into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon,
along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem --
yes, this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel,
says about the things
that are left in the house of the Lord
and in the palace of the king of Judah and in Jerusalem:
'They will be taken to Babylon
and there they will remain
until the day I come for them,' declares the Lord.
'Then I will bring them back
and restore them to this place.'

(Jeremiah 27:1--22)
