DIET . In AV [Note: Authorized Version.] , apart from Sir 30:25 , where it signifies ‘food,’ this word occurs only in Jeremiah 52:34 , where RV [Note: Revised Version.] has the more correct ‘allowance,’ i.e. of food, as AV [Note: Authorized Version.] in the parallel passage 2 Kings 25:30 . In Jeremiah 40:5 the same word is rendered ‘victuals,’ but RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] ‘allowance.’
