2 Kings 25:27-30 — Legacy Standard Bible

²⁷^aNow it happened in the thirty-seventh year of ^bthe exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he became king, ^clifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah from prison; ²⁸and he ^aspoke to him good words, and he set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon. ²⁹So ¹Jehoiachin changed his prison clothes and ²^,^ahad his meals in ³the king’s presence continually all the days of his life; ³⁰and for his ^aallowance, a continual allowance was given him by the king, a portion for each day, all the days of his life.
