# slaughtered Zedekiah's sons before his own eyes
The eyes are a synecdoche for the whole person. The reader should also understand that others probably helped the king of Babylon kill Zedekiah's sons. Alternate translation: "forced Zedekiah to watch as the king of Babylon slaughtered Zedekiah's sons" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])
