CHAP. XXXVIII.
1 Hezekiah having received a message of
death, by prayer hath his life lengthened. 8
The sun goeth ten degrees backward for a
sign of that promise. 9 His song of thanksgiving.
1 In note those days was Hezekiah sick
with a mortal disease. And Isaiah
the prophet the son of Amoz came to
him, and said to him, Thus saith the
Lord, note Set thy house in order: for thou
shalt die, and not live.
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face towards
the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
3 And said, Remember now, O Lord,
I beseech thee, how I have walked before
thee in truth and with a perfect
heart, and have done that which is good
in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept note bitterly.
4 ¶2; Then came the word of the Lord
to Isaiah, saying,
5 Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith
-- --
Before CHRIST, 712.
the Lord, the God of David thy father, I
have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy
tears: behold, I will add to thy days fifteen
years.
6 And I will deliver thee and this city
from the hand of the king of Assyria:
and I will defend this city.
7 And this shall be a sign to thee from
the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing
that he hath spoken;
8 Behold, I will bring again the shadow
of the degrees, which hath gone
down on the note sun-dial of Ahaz ten degrees
backward. So the sun returned
ten degrees, by which degrees it had gone
down.
9 ¶2; The writing of Hezekiah king of
Judah, when he had been sick, and had
recovered from his sickness:
10 I said in the cutting off of my days,
I shall go to the gates of the grave: I am
deprived of the residue of my years.
11 I said, I shall not see the Lord, even
the Lord, in the land of the living: I
shall behold man no more with the inhabitants
of the world.
12 My age hath departed, and is removed
from me as a shepherd's tent: I
have cut off like a weaver my life: he
will cut me off note with pining sickness:
from day even to night wilt thou make
an end of me.
13 I reckoned till morning, that, as a
lion, so will he break all my bones: from
day even to night wilt thou make an end
of me.
14 Like a crane or a swallow, so I
chattered: I mourned as a dove: my
eyes fail with looking upward: O Lord,
I am oppressed; note undertake for me.
15 What shall I say? he hath both
spoken to me, and himself hath done it:
I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness
of my soul.
16 O Lord, by these note things men live,
and in all these things is the life of my
spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and
make me to live.
17 Behold, note for peace I had great bitterness:
but note thou hast in love to my soul
delivered it from the pit of corruption:
for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy
back.
18 For the grave cannot praise thee,
death can not celebrate thee: they that
go down into the pit cannot hope for thy
truth.
19 The living, the living, he shall
praise thee, as I do this day: the father
to the children shall make known thy
truth.
20 The Lord was ready to save me:
therefore we will sing my songs to the
stringed instruments all the days of our
life in the house of the Lord.
21 For Isaiah had said. Let them take
a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon
the boil, and he will recover.
22 Hezekiah also had said, What is
the sign that I shall go up to the house of
the Lord?
