26 Alors tout le peuple, depuis le plus petit jusqu’au plus grand, et les chefs des troupes, se levèrent et s’en allèrent en Égypte, parce qu’ils avaient peur des Chaldéens.

27 La trente-septième année de la captivité de Jojakin, roi de Juda, le vingt-septième jour du douzième mois, Évil-Merodac, roi de Babylone, dans la première année de son règne, releva la tête de Jojakin, roi de Juda, et le tira de prison.

28 Il lui parla avec bonté, et il mit son trône au-dessus du trône des rois qui étaient avec lui à Babylone.
