 aIn thoseh1992a daysh3117 Hezekiahh2396 becameh2470a  1mortallyh4191 illh2470a. And  bIsaiahh3470b the propheth5030 the sonh1121 of Amozh531 cameh935 to him and saidh559 to him, "Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068, ` cSeth6680 your househ1004 in orderh6680, for you shall dieh4191 and not liveh2421a.' "

2

Then Hezekiahh2396 turnedh5437 his faceh6440 to the wallh7023 and prayedh6419 to the LORDh3068,

3

and saidh559, " aRememberh2142 nowh4994, Oh577 LORDh3068, I beseechh577 You, howh834 I have  bwalkedh1980 beforeh6440 You in truthh571 and with a  cwholeh8003 hearth3820, and  dhave doneh6213a whath2896a is goodh2896a in Your sighth5869." And Hezekiahh2396  ewepth1058  1bitterlyh1419.

4

Then the wordh1697 of the LORDh3068 cameh1961 to Isaiahh3470b, sayingh559,

5

"Goh1980 and sayh559 to Hezekiahh2396, `Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068, the Godh430 of your fatherh1 Davidh1732, "I have heardh8085 your prayerh8605, I have seenh7200 your tearsh1832; beholdh2009, I will addh3254  afifteenh2568h6240 yearsh8141 to your  1lifeh3117.

6

"I will  adeliverh5337 you and thish384 cityh5892b from the handh3709 of the kingh4428 of Assyriah804b; and I will defendh1598 thish384 cityh5892b."'

7

"Thish2088 shall be the  asignh226 to you from the LORDh3068, that the LORDh3068 will doh6213a thish2088 thingh1697 that He has spokenh1696:

8

"Beholdh2009, I will  acauseh7725 the shadowh6738 on the stairwayh4609b, whichh834 has goneh3381 downh3381 with the sunh8121 on the stairwayh4609b of Ahazh271, to goh7725 backh322 tenh6235 stepsh4609b." So the  bsun'sh8121 shadow wenth7725 backh7725 tenh6235 stepsh4609b on the stairwayh4609b on whichh834 it had goneh3381 downh3381.

A writingh4385 of Hezekiahh2396 kingh4428 of Judahh3063 after his illnessh2483 and  1recoveryh2421a:

10

I saidh559, " aIn the middleh1824 of my  1lifeh3117 I am to enterh1980 the  bgatesh8179 of Sheolh7585; I am to be  cdeprivedh6485 of the resth3499a of my yearsh8141."

11

I saidh559, "I will not seeh7200 the LORDh3050, The LORDh3050  ain the landh776 of the livingh2416a; I will lookh5027 on manh120 noh3808 moreh5750 amongh5973 the inhabitantsh3427 of the worldh2465.

12

"Like a shepherd'sh7473  atenth168 my dwellingh1755 is pulledh5265 up and removedh1540 from me; As a  bweaverh707 I  crolledh7088 up my lifeh2425b. He  dcutsh1214 me offh1214 from the loomh1803a; From  edayh3117 untilh5704 nighth3915 You makeh7999a an endh7999a of me.

13

"I composedh7737a my soul untilh5704 morningh1242.  aLike a lionh738--soh3651 He  bbreaksh7665 allh3605 my bonesh6106, From  cdayh3117 untilh5704 nighth3915 You makeh7999a an endh7999a of me.

14

aLike a swallowh5483a, like a craneh5693, soh3651 I twitterh6850; I  bmoanh1897 like a doveh3123; My  ceyesh5869 lookh1809 wistfullyh1809 to the heightsh4791; O Lordh3068, I am oppressedh6234, be my  dsecurityh6148.

15

aWhath4100 shall I sayh1696?  1For He has spokenh559 to me, and He Himselfh1931 has doneh6213a it; I will  bwanderh1718 about allh3605 my yearsh8141 becauseh5921 of the  cbitternessh4751 of my soulh5315.

16

"O Lordh136,  aby these things men liveh2421a, And in allh3605 these is the lifeh2425b of my spirith7307;  1 bO restoreh2492a me to healthh2492a and  clet me liveh2421a!

17

"Loh2009, for my own welfareh7965 I hadh4843 greath4751 bitternessh4751; It is You who has  1 akepth2836a my soulh5315 from the pith7845 of  2nothingnessh1097, For You have  bcasth7993 allh3605 my sinsh2399 behindh310 Your backh1460a.

18

"For  aSheolh7585 cannoth3808 thankh3034 You, Deathh4194 cannot praiseh1984b You; Those who goh3381 downh3381  bto the pith953a cannoth3808 hopeh7663b for Your faithfulnessh571.

19

"It is the  alivingh2416a who giveh3034 thanksh3034 to You, as I do todayh3117; A  bfatherh1 tellsh3045 his sonsh1121 abouth413 Your faithfulnessh571.

20

"The LORDh3068 will surely saveh3467 me; So we will  aplayh5059 my songsh5058 on stringedh5058 instruments  bAllh3605 the daysh3117 of our lifeh2425b  cat the househ1004 of the LORDh3068."

21

Now  aIsaiahh3470b had saidh559, "Let them takeh5375 a cakeh1690 of figsh8384 and applyh4799 it to the boilh7822, that he may recoverh2421a."

22

Then Hezekiahh2396 had saidh559, "Whath4100 is the  asignh226 that I shall goh5927 up to the househ1004 of the LORDh3068?"
