2 Kings, Chapter 20

¹ In those days Hezekiah became^a Lit sick to the point of deathmortally ill. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him and said to him, “Thus says the LORD, ‘Set your house in order, for you shall die and not live.’” ² Then he turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD, saying, ³ “Remember now, O LORD, I beseech You, how I have walked before You in truth and with a whole heart and have done what is good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept^b Lit great weepingbitterly. ⁴ Before Isaiah had gone out of the middle court, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, ⁵ “Return and say to Hezekiah the leader of My people, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of your father David, “I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; behold, I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the LORD. ⁶ I will add fifteen years to your^c Lit dayslife, and I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for My own sake and for My servant David’s sake.”’” ⁷ Then Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.	1 Ch2 32:24 Isa 38:1-22 Sa2 17:23 3 Neh 5:19 Neh 13:14 Neh 13:22 Neh 13:31 Ki2 18:3-6 Sa2 12:21 Sa2 12:22 5 Sa1 9:16 Sa1 10:1 Ki2 19:20 Psa 39:12 6 Ki2 19:34
⁸ Now Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of the LORD the third day?” ⁹ Isaiah said, “This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that He has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten steps or go back ten steps?” ¹⁰ So Hezekiah^d Lit saidanswered, “It is easy for the shadow to decline ten steps; no, but let the shadow turn backward ten steps.” ¹¹ Isaiah the prophet cried to the LORD, and He brought the shadow on the^e Lit stepsstairway back ten steps by which it had gone down on the^f Lit stepsstairway of Ahaz.	9 Isa 38:7 11 Jos 10:12-14 Isa 38:8
¹² At that time^gBerodach-baladan a son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that Hezekiah had been sick. ¹³ Hezekiah listened to them, and showed them all his treasure house, the silver and the gold and the spices and the precious oil and the house of his armor and all that was found in his treasuries. There was nothing in his house nor in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them. ¹⁴ Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say, and from where have they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, from Babylon.” ¹⁵ He said, “What have they seen in your house?” So Hezekiah^h Lit saidanswered, “They have seen all that is in my house; there is nothing among my treasuries that I have not shown them.”	12 Ch2 32:31 Isa 39:1-8 13 Ch2 32:27
¹⁶ Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD. ¹⁷ ‘Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and all that your fathers have laid up in store to this day will be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left,’ says the LORD. ¹⁸ ‘Some of your sons who shall issue from you, whom you will beget, will be taken away; and they will become officials in the palace of the king of Babylon.’” ¹⁹ Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD which you have spoken is good.” For heⁱ Lit saidthought, “Is it not so, if there will be peace and truth in my days?”	17 Ki2 24:13 Ki2 25:13-15 Ch2 36:10 Jer 52:17-19 18 Ki2 24:12 Ch2 33:11 Dan 1:3-7 19 Sa1 3:18
²⁰ Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah and all his might, and how he made the pool and the conduit and brought water into the city, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? ²¹ So Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son became king in his place.	20 Ch2 32:32 Neh 3:16 21 Ch2 32:33
