2 Chronicles 33:11-14
33:11 So the
Lord brought against them the commanders of the army of the king of Assyria. They seized Manasseh, put hooks in his nose,
bound him with bronze chains, and carried him away to Babylon.
33:12 In his pain
Manasseh
asked the
Lord his God for mercy
and truly
humbled himself before the God of his ancestors.
33:13 When he prayed to the
Lord,
the
Lord responded to him
and answered favorably
his cry for mercy. The
Lord brought him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom. Then Manasseh realized that the
Lord is the true God.
33:14 After this Manasseh built up the outer wall of the City of David on the west side of the Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate and all around the terrace; he made it much higher. He placed army officers in all the fortified cities in Judah.

52:32 He spoke kindly to him and gave him a more prestigious position than the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
52:33 Jehoiachin took off his prison clothes and ate daily in the king’s presence for the rest of his life.
52:34 He was given daily provisions by the king of Babylon for the rest of his life until the day he died.
