Chapter 25 28 And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;29 And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.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.
The Books of Kings are books included in the Hebrew Bible. They were originally written in Hebrew and are recognised as scripture by Judaism and Christianity. According to Biblical chronology, the events in the Books of Kings occurred between the 10th and 6th centuries BC.
1 and 2 Kings (like 1 and 2 Samuel and 1 and 2 Chronicles) are actually one literary work; in Hebrew tradition they are simply "Kings". The division of this work into two books was introduced by the translators of the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament), and was subsequently followed in the Latin Vulgate and most modern translations. In 1448 the division into two sections also appeared in a Hebrew manuscript and was perpetuated in later printed editions of the Hebrew text.
