2 Kings

2 Kings 25:28–30

28And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.

29So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life. 30And the king provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life.
