2 Kings 25:27-29

New Life Version

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. ²⁸ He spoke kind words to him, and set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were with him in Babylon. ²⁹ Jehoiachin changed from his prison clothes. And he ate with the king all the rest of his life.
