The Old Testament of the
King James Version of the Bible
20:1 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto
death. And the prophet
Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said
unto him, Thus saith the
LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou
shalt die, and not live.
20:2 Then he turned his face to the wall,
and prayed unto the LORD,
saying, 20:3 I beseech thee, O LORD,
remember now how I have walked
before thee in truth and with a perfect
heart, and have done that
which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah
wept sore.
20:4 And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was
gone out into the middle
court, that the word of the LORD came to
him, saying, 20:5 Turn again,
and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people,
Thus saith the LORD, the
God of David thy father, I have heard thy
prayer, I have seen thy
tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the
third day thou shalt go up
unto the house of the LORD.
20:6 And I will add unto thy days fifteen
years; and I will deliver
thee and this city out of the hand of the
king of Assyria; and I will
defend this city for mine own sake, and for
my servant David's sake.
20:7 And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs.
And they took and laid it
on the boil, and he recovered.
20:8 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What
shall be the sign that the
LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up
into the house of the LORD
the third day? 20:9 And Isaiah said, This
sign shalt thou have of the
LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that
he hath spoken: shall the
shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back
ten degrees? 20:10 And
Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for
the shadow to go down ten
degrees: nay, but let the shadow return
backward ten degrees.
20:11 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the
LORD: and he brought the
shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had
gone down in the dial of
Ahaz.
20:12 At that time Berodachbaladan, the son
of Baladan, king of
Babylon, sent letters and a present unto
Hezekiah: for he had heard
that Hezekiah had been sick.
20:13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and
shewed them all the house
of his precious things, the silver, and the
gold, and the spices, and
the precious ointment, and all the house of
his armour, and all that
was found in his treasures: there was
nothing in his house, nor in all
his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.
20:14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king
Hezekiah, and said unto
him, What said these men? and from whence
came they unto thee? And
Hezekiah said, They are come from a far
country, even from Babylon.
20:15 And he said, What have they seen in
thine house? And Hezekiah
answered, All the things that are in mine
house have they seen: there
is nothing among my treasures that I have
not shewed them.
20:16 And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear
the word of the LORD.
20:17 Behold, the days come, that all that
is in thine house, and that
which thy fathers have laid up in store unto
this day, shall be
carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left,
saith the LORD.
20:18 And of thy sons that shall issue from
thee, which thou shalt
beget, shall they take away; and they shall
be eunuchs in the palace
of the king of Babylon.
20:19 Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good
is the word of the LORD
which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it
not good, if peace and
truth be in my days? 20:20 And the rest of
the acts of Hezekiah, and
all his might, and how he made a pool, and a
conduit, and brought
water into the city, are they not written in
the book of the
chronicles of the kings of Judah? 20:21 And
Hezekiah slept with his
fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his
stead.
21:1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he
began to reign, and reigned
fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his
mother's name was
Hephzibah.
21:2 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD, after
the abominations of the heathen, whom the
LORD cast out before the
children of Israel.
21:3 For he built up again the high places
which Hezekiah his father
had destroyed; and he reared up altars for
Baal, and made a grove, as
did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all
the host of heaven, and
served them.
21:4 And he built altars in the house of the
LORD, of which the LORD
said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.
21:5 And he built altars for all the host of
heaven in the two courts
of the house of the LORD.
21:6 And he made his son pass through the
fire, and observed times,
and used enchantments, and dealt with
familiar spirits and wizards: he
wrought much wickedness in the sight of the
LORD, to provoke him to
anger.
21:7 And he set a graven image of the grove
that he had made in the
house, of which the LORD said to David, and
to Solomon his son, In
this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have
chosen out of all tribes of
Israel, will I put my name for ever: 21:8
Neither will I make the feet
of Israel move any more out of the land
which I gave their fathers;
only if they will observe to do according to
all that I have commanded
them, and according to all the law that my
servant Moses commanded
them.
21:9 But they hearkened not: and Manasseh
seduced them to do more evil
than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed
before the children of
Israel.
21:10 And the LORD spake by his servants the
prophets, saying, 21:11
Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done
these abominations, and hath
done wickedly above all that the Amorites
did, which were before him,
and hath made Judah also to sin with his
idols: 21:12 Therefore thus
saith the LORD God of Israel, Behold, I am
bringing such evil upon
Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth
of it, both his ears shall
tingle.
21:13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the
line of Samaria, and the
plummet of the house of Ahab: and I will
wipe Jerusalem as a man
wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it
upside down.
21:14 And I will forsake the remnant of mine
inheritance, and deliver
them into the hand of their enemies; and
they shall become a prey and
a spoil to all their enemies; 21:15 Because
they have done that which
was evil in my sight, and have provoked me
to anger, since the day
their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even
unto this day.
21:16 Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood
very much, till he had
filled Jerusalem from one end to another;
beside his sin wherewith he
made Judah to sin, in doing that which was
evil in the sight of the
LORD.
21:17 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh,
and all that he did, and
his sin that he sinned, are they not written
in the book of the
chronicles of the kings of Judah? 21:18 And
Manasseh slept with his
fathers, and was buried in the garden of his
own house, in the garden
of Uzza: and Amon his son reigned in his
stead.
21:19 Amon was twenty and two years old when
he began to reign, and he
reigned two years in Jerusalem. And his
mother's name was
Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of
Jotbah.
21:20 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD, as his
father Manasseh did.
21:21 And he walked in all the way that his
father walked in, and
served the idols that his father served, and
worshipped them: 21:22
And he forsook the LORD God of his fathers,
and walked not in the way
of the LORD.
21:23 And the servants of Amon conspired
against him, and slew the
king in his own house.
21:24 And the people of the land slew all
them that had conspired
against king Amon; and the people of the
land made Josiah his son king
in his stead.
21:25 Now the rest of the acts of Amon which
he did, are they not
written in the book of the chronicles of the
kings of Judah? 21:26
And he was buried in his sepulchre in the
garden of Uzza: and Josiah
his son reigned in his stead.
22:1 Josiah was eight years old when he
began to reign, and he reigned
thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his
mother's name was Jedidah,
the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
22:2 And he did that which was right in the
sight of the LORD, and
walked in all the way of David his father,
and turned not aside to the
right hand or to the left.
22:3 And it came to pass in the eighteenth
year of king Josiah, that
the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah,
the son of Meshullam, the
scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
22:4 Go up to Hilkiah the
high priest, that he may sum the silver
which is brought into the
house of the LORD, which the keepers of the
door have gathered of the
people: 22:5 And let them deliver it into
the hand of the doers of the
work, that have the oversight of the house
of the LORD: and let them
give it to the doers of the work which is in
the house of the LORD, to
repair the breaches of the house, 22:6 Unto
carpenters, and builders,
and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone
to repair the house.
22:7 Howbeit there was no reckoning made
with them of the money that
was delivered into their hand, because they
dealt faithfully.
22:8 And Hilkiah the high priest said unto
Shaphan the scribe, I have
found the book of the law in the house of
the LORD. And Hilkiah gave
the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
22:9 And Shaphan the scribe came to the
king, and brought the king
word again, and said, Thy servants have
gathered the money that was
found in the house, and have delivered it
into the hand of them that
do the work, that have the oversight of the
house of the LORD.
22:10 And Shaphan the scribe shewed the
king, saying, Hilkiah the
priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan
read it before the king.
22:11 And it came to pass, when the king had
heard the words of the
book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
22:12 And the king commanded Hilkiah the
priest, and Ahikam the son of
Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and
Shaphan the scribe, and
Asahiah a servant of the king's, saying,
22:13 Go ye, enquire of the
LORD for me, and for the people, and for all
Judah, concerning the
words of this book that is found: for great
is the wrath of the LORD
that is kindled against us, because our
fathers have not hearkened
unto the words of this book, to do according
unto all that which is
written concerning us.
22:14 So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and
Achbor, and Shaphan, and
Asahiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess,
the wife of Shallum the son
of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the
wardrobe; (now she dwelt
in Jerusalem in the college;) and they
communed with her.
22:15 And she said unto them, Thus saith the
LORD God of Israel, Tell
the man that sent you to me, 22:16 Thus
saith the LORD, Behold, I will
bring evil upon this place, and upon the
inhabitants thereof, even all
the words of the book which the king of
Judah hath read: 22:17 Because
they have forsaken me, and have burned
incense unto other gods, that
they might provoke me to anger with all the
works of their hands;
therefore my wrath shall be kindled against
this place, and shall not
be quenched.
22:18 But to the king of Judah which sent
you to enquire of the LORD,
thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith the
LORD God of Israel, As
touching the words which thou hast heard;
22:19 Because thine heart
was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself
before the LORD, when thou
heardest what I spake against this place,
and against the inhabitants
thereof, that they should become a
desolation and a curse, and hast
rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also
have heard thee, saith
the LORD.
22:20 Behold therefore, I will gather thee
unto thy fathers, and thou
shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace;
and thine eyes shall not
see all the evil which I will bring upon
this place. And they brought
the king word again.
23:1 And the king sent, and they gathered
unto him all the elders of
Judah and of Jerusalem.
23:2 And the king went up into the house of
the LORD, and all the men
of Judah and all the inhabitants of
Jerusalem with him, and the
priests, and the prophets, and all the
people, both small and great:
and he read in their ears all the words of
the book of the covenant
which was found in the house of the LORD.
23:3 And the king stood by a pillar, and
made a covenant before the
LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep
his commandments and his
testimonies and his statutes with all their
heart and all their soul,
to perform the words of this covenant that
were written in this book.
And all the people stood to the covenant.
23:4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high
priest, and the priests
of the second order, and the keepers of the
door, to bring forth out
of the temple of the LORD all the vessels
that were made for Baal, and
for the grove, and for all the host of
heaven: and he burned them
without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron,
and carried the ashes of
them unto Bethel.
23:5 And he put down the idolatrous priests,
whom the kings of Judah
had ordained to burn incense in the high
places in the cities of
Judah, and in the places round about
Jerusalem; them also that burned
incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the
moon, and to the planets,
and to all the host of heaven.
23:6 And he brought out the grove from the
house of the LORD, without
Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned
it at the brook Kidron,
and stamped it small to powder, and cast the
powder thereof upon the
graves of the children of the people.
23:7 And he brake down the houses of the
sodomites, that were by the
house of the LORD, where the women wove
hangings for the grove.
23:8 And he brought all the priests out of
the cities of Judah, and
defiled the high places where the priests
had burned incense, from
Geba to Beersheba, and brake down the high
places of the gates that
were in the entering in of the gate of
Joshua the governor of the
city, which were on a man's left hand at the
gate of the city.
23:9 Nevertheless the priests of the high
places came not up to the
altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did
eat of the unleavened
bread among their brethren.
23:10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in
the valley of the children
of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or
his daughter to pass
through the fire to Molech.
23:11 And he took away the horses that the
kings of Judah had given to
the sun, at the entering in of the house of
the LORD, by the chamber
of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was
in the suburbs, and burned
the chariots of the sun with fire.
23:12 And the altars that were on the top of
the upper chamber of
Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and
the altars which Manasseh
had made in the two courts of the house of
the LORD, did the king beat
down, and brake them down from thence, and
cast the dust of them into
the brook Kidron.
23:13 And the high places that were before
Jerusalem, which were on
the right hand of the mount of corruption,
which Solomon the king of
Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the
abomination of the Zidonians, and
for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites,
and for Milcom the
abomination of the children of Ammon, did
the king defile.
23:14 And he brake in pieces the images, and
cut down the groves, and
filled their places with the bones of men.
23:15 Moreover the altar that was at Bethel,
and the high place which
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel
to sin, had made, both that
altar and the high place he brake down, and
burned the high place, and
stamped it small to powder, and burned the
grove.
23:16 And as Josiah turned himself, he spied
the sepulchres that were
there in the mount, and sent, and took the
bones out of the
sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar,
and polluted it, according
to the word of the LORD which the man of God
proclaimed, who
proclaimed these words.
23:17 Then he said, What title is that that
I see? And the men of the
city told him, It is the sepulchre of the
man of God, which came from
Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou
hast done against the
altar of Bethel.
23:18 And he said, Let him alone; let no man
move his bones. So they
let his bones alone, with the bones of the
prophet that came out of
Samaria.
23:19 And all the houses also of the high
places that were in the
cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel
had made to provoke the
Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to
them according to all the
acts that he had done in Bethel.
23:20 And he slew all the priests of the
high places that were there
upon the altars, and burned men's bones upon
them, and returned to
Jerusalem.
23:21 And the king commanded all the people,
saying, Keep the passover
unto the LORD your God, as it is written in
the book of this covenant.
23:22 Surely there was not holden such a
passover from the days of the
judges that judged Israel, nor in all the
days of the kings of Israel,
nor of the kings of Judah; 23:23 But in the
eighteenth year of king
Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to
the LORD in Jerusalem.
23:24 Moreover the workers with familiar
spirits, and the wizards, and
the images, and the idols, and all the
abominations that were spied in
the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did
Josiah put away, that he might
perform the words of the law which were
written in the book that
Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the
LORD.
23:25 And like unto him was there no king
before him, that turned to
the LORD with all his heart, and with all
his soul, and with all his
might, according to all the law of Moses;
neither after him arose
there any like him.
23:26 Notwithstanding the LORD turned not
from the fierceness of his
great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled
against Judah, because of
all the provocations that Manasseh had
provoked him withal.
23:27 And the LORD said, I will remove Judah
also out of my sight, as
I have removed Israel, and will cast off
this city Jerusalem which I
have chosen, and the house of which I said,
My name shall be there.
23:28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah,
and all that he did, are
they not written in the book of the
chronicles of the kings of Judah?
23:29 In his days Pharaohnechoh king of
Egypt went up against the king
of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king
Josiah went against him;
and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen
him.
23:30 And his servants carried him in a
chariot dead from Megiddo, and
brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in
his own sepulchre. And the
people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of
Josiah, and anointed him,
and made him king in his father's stead.
23:31 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years
old when he began to reign;
and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
And his mother's name was
Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
23:32 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD,
according to all that his fathers had done.
23:33 And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at
Riblah in the land of
Hamath, that he might not reign in
Jerusalem; and put the land to a
tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and
a talent of gold.
23:34 And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son
of Josiah king in the
room of Josiah his father, and turned his
name to Jehoiakim, and took
Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and
died there.
23:35 And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the
gold to Pharaoh; but he
taxed the land to give the money according
to the commandment of
Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold
of the people of the land,
of every one according to his taxation, to
give it unto Pharaohnechoh.
23:36 Jehoiakim was twenty and five years
old when he began to reign;
and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
And his mother's name was
Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
23:37 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD,
according to all that his fathers had done.
24:1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim
became his servant three years: then he
turned and rebelled against
him.
24:2 And the LORD sent against him bands of
the Chaldees, and bands of
the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and
bands of the children of
Ammon, and sent them against Judah to
destroy it, according to the
word of the LORD, which he spake by his
servants the prophets.
24:3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD
came this upon Judah, to
remove them out of his sight, for the sins
of Manasseh, according to
all that he did; 24:4 And also for the
innocent blood that he shed:
for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood;
which the LORD would not
pardon.
24:5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim,
and all that he did, are
they not written in the book of the
chronicles of the kings of Judah?
24:6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers:
and Jehoiachin his son
reigned in his stead.
24:7 And the king of Egypt came not again
any more out of his land:
for the king of Babylon had taken from the
river of Egypt unto the
river Euphrates all that pertained to the
king of Egypt.
24:8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when
he began to reign, and he
reigned in Jerusalem three months. And his
mother's name was Nehushta,
the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
24:9 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD,
according to all that his father had done.
24:10 At that time the servants of
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came
up against Jerusalem, and the city was
besieged.
24:11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
came against the city, and
his servants did besiege it.
24:12 And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went
out to the king of
Babylon, he, and his mother, and his
servants, and his princes, and
his officers: and the king of Babylon took
him in the eighth year of
his reign.
24:13 And he carried out thence all the
treasures of the house of the
LORD, and the treasures of the king's house,
and cut in pieces all the
vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel
had made in the temple of
the LORD, as the LORD had said.
24:14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and
all the princes, and all
the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand
captives, and all the
craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save
the poorest sort of the
people of the land.
24:15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to
Babylon, and the king's
mother, and the king's wives, and his
officers, and the mighty of the
land, those carried he into captivity from
Jerusalem to Babylon.
24:16 And all the men of might, even seven
thousand, and craftsmen and
smiths a thousand, all that were strong and
apt for war, even them the
king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
24:17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah
his father's brother king
in his stead, and changed his name to
Zedekiah.
24:18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old
when he began to reign,
and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
And his mother's name was
Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
24:19 And he did that which was evil in the
sight of the LORD,
according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
24:20 For through the anger of the LORD it
came to pass in Jerusalem
and Judah, until he had cast them out from
his presence, that Zedekiah
rebelled against the king of Babylon.
25:1 And it came to pass in the ninth year
of his reign, in the tenth
month, in the tenth day of the month, that
Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon came, he, and all his host, against
Jerusalem, and pitched
against it; and they built forts against it
round about.
25:2 And the city was besieged unto the
eleventh year of king
Zedekiah.
25:3 And on the ninth day of the fourth
month the famine prevailed in
the city, and there was no bread for the
people of the land.
25:4 And the city was broken up, and all the
men of war fled by night
by the way of the gate between two walls,
which is by the king's
garden: (now the Chaldees were against the
city round about:) and the
king went the way toward the plain.
25:5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued
after the king, and overtook
him in the plains of Jericho: and all his
army were scattered from
him.
25:6 So they took the king, and brought him
up to the king of Babylon
to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
25:7 And they slew the sons of Zedekiah
before his eyes, and put out
the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with
fetters of brass, and carried
him to Babylon.
25:8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh
day of the month, which is
the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar
king of Babylon, came
Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, a servant
of the king of Babylon,
unto Jerusalem: 25:9 And he burnt the house
of the LORD, and the
king's house, and all the houses of
Jerusalem, and every great man's
house burnt he with fire.
25:10 And all the army of the Chaldees, that
were with the captain of
the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem
round about.
25:11 Now the rest of the people that were
left in the city, and the
fugitives that fell away to the king of
Babylon, with the remnant of
the multitude, did Nebuzaradan the captain
of the guard carry away.
25:12 But the captain of the guard left of
the door of the poor of the
land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
25:13 And the pillars of brass that were in
the house of the LORD, and
the bases, and the brasen sea that was in
the house of the LORD, did
the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried
the brass of them to
Babylon.
25:14 And the pots, and the shovels, and the
snuffers, and the spoons,
and all the vessels of brass wherewith they
ministered, took they
away.
25:15 And the firepans, and the bowls, and
such things as were of
gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the
captain of the guard took
away.
25:16 The two pillars, one sea, and the
bases which Solomon had made
for the house of the LORD; the brass of all
these vessels was without
weight.
25:17 The height of the one pillar was
eighteen cubits, and the
chapiter upon it was brass: and the height
of the chapiter three
cubits; and the wreathen work, and
pomegranates upon the chapiter
round about, all of brass: and like unto
these had the second pillar
with wreathen work.
25:18 And the captain of the guard took
Seraiah the chief priest, and
Zephaniah the second priest, and the three
keepers of the door: 25:19
And out of the city he took an officer that
was set over the men of
war, and five men of them that were in the
king's presence, which were
found in the city, and the principal scribe
of the host, which
mustered the people of the land, and
threescore men of the people of
the land that were found in the city: 25:20
And Nebuzaradan captain of
the guard took these, and brought them to
the king of Babylon to
Riblah: 25:21 And the king of Babylon smote
them, and slew them at
Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was
carried away out of their
land.
25:22 And as for the people that remained in
the land of Judah, whom
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left,
even over them he made
Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of
Shaphan, ruler.
25:23 And when all the captains of the
armies, they and their men,
heard that the king of Babylon had made
Gedaliah governor, there came
to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son
of Nethaniah, and Johanan
the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of
Tanhumeth the Netophathite,
and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they
and their men.
25:24 And Gedaliah sware to them, and to
their men, and said unto
them, Fear not to be the servants of the
Chaldees: dwell in the land,
and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall
be well with you.
25:25 But it came to pass in the seventh
month, that Ishmael the son
of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the
seed royal, came, and ten
men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he
died, and the Jews and the
Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
25:26 And all the people, both small and
great, and the captains of
the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for
they were afraid of the
Chaldees.
25:27 And it came to pass in the seven and
thirtieth year of the
captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in
the twelfth month, on the
seven and twentieth day of the month, that
Evilmerodach king of
Babylon in the year that he began to reign
did lift up the head of
Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
25:28 And he spake kindly to
him, and set his throne above the throne of
the kings that were with
him in Babylon; 25:29 And changed his prison
garments: and he did eat
bread continually before him all the days of
his life.
25:30 And his allowance was a continual
allowance given him of the
king, a daily rate for every day, all the
days of his life.
