2 Kings 25:25-27

New Life Version

²⁵ But in the seventh month Ishmael came. He was the son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the king’s family. He came with ten men and killed Gedaliah and the Jews and Babylonians who were with him at Mizpah. ²⁶ Then all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies left and went to Egypt. For they were afraid of the Babylonians.

²⁷ On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month, in the thirty-seventh year since King Jehoiachin of Judah was taken away from his land, Evil-merodach became the king of Babylon. He showed favor to King Jehoiachin of Judah, and let him out of prison that year.
