25. and out of the city he hath taken a certain eunuch, who hath been inspector over the men of war, and seven men of those seeing the king's face, who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who mustereth the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land, who are found in the midst of the city;
26. and Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, taketh them, and bringeth them unto the king of Babylon to Riblah,
27. and the king of Babylon smiteth them, and putteth them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he removeth Judah from off its own ground.

32. and speaketh with him good things, and setteth his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
33. and he hath changed his prison garments, and he hath eaten bread before him continually, all the days of his life.
34. And his allowance--a continual allowance--hath been given to him by the king of Babylon, the matter of a day in its day, till the day of his death--all days of his life.
