2 Kings 20

1In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus says the Yahuah, Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live. 2Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Yahuah, saying, 3I beseech you, O Yahuah, remember now how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done good in your sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 4And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the Yahuah came to him, saying, 5Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus says the Yahuah, the Elohim of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will heal you: on the third day you shall go up unto the house of the Yahuah. 6And I will add unto your days fifteen years; and I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. 7And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid on the boil, and he recovered. 8And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What the sign that the Yahuah will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the Yahuah the third day? 9And Isaiah said, This sign shall you have of the Yahuah, that the Yahuah will do the thing that he has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 10And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: no, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 11And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the Yahuah: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 12At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 13And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not. 14Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from from where came they unto you? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, from Babylon. 15And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah answered, All that in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them. 16And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Yahuah. 17Behold, the days come, that all that in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, says the Yahuah. 18And of your sons that shall issue from you, which you shall beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 19Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good the word of the Yahuah which you hast spoken. And he said, not , if peace and truth be in my days? 20And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? 21And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
