²⁷ And in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month, Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, showed favor to Jehoiachin king of Judah and released him from prison; ²⁸ He spoke kindly to him and ranked him above the kings with him in Babylon. ²⁹ Jehoiachin put off his prison garments, and he dined regularly at the king's table the remainder of his life. ³⁰ And his allowance, a continual one, was given him by the king, every day a portion, for the rest of his life.
