  1. 26All the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose, and came to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
  2. 27In the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
  3. 28and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
  4. 29and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life;
  5. 30and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him from the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
