And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand ,
with part of the vessels of the house of God :
which he carried into the land of Shinar to the house of his god ;
and he brought the vessels into the treasure house of his god .

And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs ,
that he should bring certain of the children of Israel Yisra #

and of the kings seed ,
and of the princes ;

Children in whom was no blemish m #

and such as had ability in them to stand in the kings palace ,
and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans .

And the king appointed them a daily yowm #
provision of the kings meat ,
and of the wine which he drank :
so nourishing them three years ,
that at the end thereof they might stand before the king .
