Berean Standard Bible
In those days hath
Hezekiah been
sick
unto
death,
and
come
unto
him
doth
Isaiah son of Amoz the
prophet,
and
saith
unto
him ,
`Thus
said Jehovah
: Give
a
charge
to
thy
house, for thou
art
dying,
and
dost
not live
. '
In those days Hezekiah became
mortally
ill.
The
prophet
Isaiah son of Amoz came
to
him and
said ,
“This
is
what
the
LORD
says
: ‘Put
your
house in
order
, for you
are
about
to
die;
you
will
not recover
. ’”
And
he
turneth
round
his face unto
the wall ,
and prayeth
unto
Jehovah
, saying,
Then
Hezekiah
turned
his face to
the wall and prayed
to
the
LORD
, saying,
`I
pray
Thee
, O Jehovah
, remember ,
I
pray
Thee,
how I have walked habitually
before Thee
in
truth,
and with a
perfect
heart,
and
that
which
`is'
good
in
Thine
eyes
I have done ;'
and Hezekiah weepeth
--
a
great
weeping
.
“Please
, O LORD
, remember how I have walked before You
faithfully
and with wholehearted
devotion;
I have done what
was
good
in
Your
sight.”
And Hezekiah wept
bitterly
.
And
it
cometh
to
pass
--
Isaiah hath
not
gone
out
to
the middle court
--
that
the word of Jehovah
hath
been
unto
him, saying,
Before
Isaiah had
left
the middle courtyard,
the word of the
LORD
came
to
him, saying,
`Turn
back ,
and thou
hast
said
unto
Hezekiah ,
leader of My people :
Thus
said
Jehovah
, God of David
thy
father, I have heard thy
prayer ,
I have seen thy
tear,
lo,
I give
healing
to
thee,
on the third day thou
dost
go up to the house of Jehovah;
“Go
back and tell
Hezekiah the
leader of My people that
this
is
what
the
LORD
, the
God of your
father David
, says:
‘
I have heard your
prayer ;
I have seen your
tears.
I will
surely
heal
you.
On the third day from
now
you
will
go up to the house of the
LORD.
and
I have
added
to
thy
days
fifteen years ,
and out
of
the hand of the king of Asshur
I deliver
thee
and
this
city,
and
have
covered
over
this city for Mine
own
sake ,
and for the sake of David
My servant. '
I will
add
fifteen years to
your
life.
And I
will
deliver
you
and
this
city
from
the hand of the king of Assyria.
I will
defend
this city for My
sake and for the sake of My servant David
. ’”
And
Isaiah saith
, `Take
ye
a cake
of figs ;'
and
they take
and lay
`
it '
on
the boil, and he
reviveth
.
Then
Isaiah said
, “Prepare
a poultice
of figs .”
So
they brought
it
and applied
it to
the boil, and Hezekiah
recovered
.
And
Hezekiah saith
unto
Isaiah, `
What `is'
the sign that Jehovah
doth
give
healing
to
me ,
that I have
gone
up on
the
third
day
to the house of Jehovah
? '
Now
Hezekiah had
asked
Isaiah, “
What will
be
the sign that the
LORD
will
heal
me and
that I will
go
up to the house of the
LORD
on
the
third
day
? ”
And Isaiah saith
, `
This `is'
to
thee
the
sign from Jehovah,
that
Jehovah
doth
the thing
that He hath
spoken
--
The shadow hath
gone
on
ten degrees
, or it
doth
turn
back ten degrees
? '
And Isaiah had
replied
, “
This will
be
a
sign to
you
from the LORD
that He will
do
what
He
has
promised:
Would
you
like
the shadow to
go
forward
ten steps
, or back ten steps
? ”
And
Hezekiah
saith,
`
It hath
been
light
for the shadow to incline
ten degrees:
nay
, but let
the
shadow
turn
backward
ten degrees
. '
“
It is
easy
for the shadow to lengthen
ten steps
, ”
answered
Hezekiah,
“
but not
for
it
to
go
back
ten steps
. ”
And
Isaiah the prophet calleth
unto
Jehovah
, and He bringeth
back
the shadow by
the degrees
that
it had gone
down
in
the degrees
of Ahaz --
backward
ten
degrees
.
So
Isaiah the prophet called
out
to
the
LORD
, and He brought
the shadow back
the ten
steps
it had descended
on
the stairway
of Ahaz.
At that time hath
Berodach
-Baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a present
unto
Hezekiah, for he heard
that
Hezekiah
had been
sick;
At that time Merodach
-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift
to
Hezekiah, for he had heard
about
Hezekiah’s
illness.
and Hezekiah hearkeneth
unto
them,
and sheweth
them all the
house
of
his treasury,
the silver, and
the gold, and
the spices, and the good
ointment
, and
all
the
house
of
his vessels,
and
all that hath
been
found in his treasuries;
there hath
not
been
a
thing
that
Hezekiah
hath
not
shewed
them,
in his house,
and
in all his dominion.
And Hezekiah received
the
envoys
and showed
them all that
was
in
his treasure
house—
the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious
oil
, as
well
as
his armory—
all that was
found in his storehouses.
There was
nothing
in his palace
or
in all his dominion that
Hezekiah
did
not
show
them
.
And
Isaiah
the prophet cometh
in
unto
king Hezekiah ,
and saith
unto
him
, `What
said
these
men ?
and
whence
come they unto
thee
? '
And
Hezekiah
saith,
`
From a land afar
off
they
have
come
--
from Babylon. '
Then
the prophet Isaiah
went
to
King Hezekiah and asked
, “Where
did
those
men come from,
and
what
did
they say
to
you
? ”
“They
came
from a distant
land ,”
Hezekiah
replied,
“
from Babylon. ”
And
he
saith,
`
What saw
they in thy
house
? '
and
Hezekiah
saith,
`All
that
`is'
in my house
they
saw;
there hath
not
been
a
thing
that I have
not shewed
them among
my
treasures
. '
“
What have
they seen
in your
palace
? ”
Isaiah
asked.
“They
have
seen
everything
in my palace,”
answered
Hezekiah.
“
There is
nothing
among
my
treasures
that I did
not show
them. ”
And
Isaiah saith
unto
Hezekiah, `
Hear a
word of Jehovah
:
Then
Isaiah said
to
Hezekiah, “
Hear the
word of the
LORD
:
Lo,
days
are
coming,
and
borne
hath
been
all
that
`is'
in thy
house,
and that thy
father
have treasured
up till
this day ,
to Babylon ;
there
is
not
left a
thing
, said
Jehovah;
The
time
will
surely
come
when
everything
in your
palace
and all
that your
fathers
have stored
up until
this day will
be
carried
off
to Babylon .
Nothing
will
be
left, says
the
LORD.
and of thy
sons
who
go
out
from
thee
, whom
thou
begettest
, they
take
away ,
and
they
have
been
eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. '
And some
of your
descendants
, your
own
flesh
and
blood
, will
be
taken
away to
be
eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. ”
And
Hezekiah saith
unto
Isaiah, `Good
`is'
the word of Jehovah
that thou
hast
spoken ;'
and
he saith
, `Is
it
not --
if
peace and truth
are
in my days
? '
But
Hezekiah said
to
Isaiah, “
The word of the
LORD
that you
have
spoken is
good.”
For
he thought
, “Will
there
not at
least
be
peace and security
in my lifetime
? ”
And
the rest of the matters
of Hezekiah, and
all his might ,
and how he made
the pool ,
and the conduit,
and
bringeth
in
the
waters
to the city, are they not written on
the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
As
for
the rest of the acts
of Hezekiah, along
with
all his might and how he constructed
the pool and the tunnel
to bring
water
into
the city, are they not written in
the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
And Hezekiah lieth
with his fathers, and reign
doth
Manasseh
his son in his stead
.
And Hezekiah rested
with his fathers, and his son Manasseh
reigned
in his place
.
