In those daysH3117 was HezekiahH2396 sickH2470 unto deathH4191. And the prophetH5030 IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 cameH935 to him, and saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Set thine houseH1004 in orderH6680; for thou shalt dieH4191, and not liveH2421. {Set…: Heb. Give charge concerning thine house}
Then he turnedH5437 his faceH6440 to the wallH7023, and prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
I beseechH577 thee, O LORDH3068, rememberH2142 now how I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 thee in truthH571 and with a perfectH8003 heartH3824, and have doneH6213 that which is goodH2896 in thy sightH5869. And HezekiahH2396 weptH1058+H1065 soreH1419. {sore: Heb. with a great weeping}
And it came to pass, afore IsaiahH3470 was gone outH3318 into the middleH8484 courtH2691+H5892, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to him, sayingH559, {court: or, city}
Turn againH7725, and tellH559 HezekiahH2396 the captainH5057 of my peopleH5971, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of DavidH1732 thy fatherH1, I have heardH8085 thy prayerH8605, I have seenH7200 thy tearsH1832: behold, I will healH7495 thee: on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 thou shalt go upH5927 unto the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And I will addH3254 unto thy daysH3117 fifteenH2568+H6240 yearsH8141; and I will deliverH5337 thee and this cityH5892 out of the handH3709 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804; and I will defendH1598 this cityH5892 for mine own sake, and for my servantH5650 David'sH1732 sake.
And IsaiahH3470 saidH559, TakeH3947 a lumpH1690 of figsH8384. And they tookH3947 and laidH7760 it on the boilH7822, and he recoveredH2421.
And HezekiahH2396 saidH559 unto IsaiahH3470, What shall be the signH226 that the LORDH3068 will healH7495 me, and that I shall go upH5927 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 the thirdH7992 dayH3117?
And IsaiahH3470 saidH559, This signH226 shalt thou have of the LORDH3068, that the LORDH3068 will doH6213 the thingH1697 that he hath spokenH1696: shall the shadowH6738 go forwardH1980 tenH6235 degreesH4609, or go backH7725 tenH6235 degreesH4609?
And HezekiahH3169 answeredH559, It is a light thingH7043 for the shadowH6738 to go downH5186 tenH6235 degreesH4609: nay, but let the shadowH6738 returnH7725 backwardH322 tenH6235 degreesH4609.
And IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068: and he broughtH7725 the shadowH6738 tenH6235 degreesH4609 backwardH322, byH4609 which it had gone downH3381 in the dialH4609 of AhazH271. {dial: Heb. degrees}
At that timeH6256 BerodachbaladanH1255, the sonH1121 of BaladanH1081, kingH4428 of BabylonH894, sentH7971 lettersH5612 and a presentH4503 unto HezekiahH2396: for he had heardH8085 that HezekiahH2396 had been sickH2470. {Berodachbaladan: or, Merodachbaladan}
And HezekiahH2396 hearkenedH8085 unto them, and shewedH7200 them all the houseH1004 of his precious thingsH5238, the silverH3701, and the goldH2091, and the spicesH1314, and the preciousH2896 ointmentH8081, and all the houseH1004 of his armourH3627, and all that was foundH4672 in his treasuresH214: there was nothingH1697 in his houseH1004, nor in all his dominionH4475, that HezekiahH2396 shewedH7200 them not. {precious things: or, spicery} {armour: or, jewels: Heb. vessels}
Then cameH935 IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 unto kingH4428 HezekiahH2396, and saidH559 unto him, What saidH559 these menH582? and from whenceH370 cameH935 they unto thee? And HezekiahH2396 saidH559, They are comeH935 from a farH7350 countryH776, even from BabylonH894.
And he saidH559, What have they seenH7200 in thine houseH1004? And HezekiahH2396 answeredH559, All the things that are in mine houseH1004 have they seenH7200: there is nothingH1697 among my treasuresH214 that I have not shewedH7200 them.
And IsaiahH3470 saidH559 unto HezekiahH2396, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, that all that is in thine houseH1004, and that which thy fathersH1 have laid up in storeH686 unto this dayH3117, shall be carriedH5375 into BabylonH894: nothingH1697 shall be leftH3498, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
And of thy sonsH1121 that shall issueH3318 from thee, which thou shalt begetH3205, shall they take awayH3947; and they shall be eunuchsH5631 in the palaceH1964 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
Then saidH559 HezekiahH2396 unto IsaiahH3470, GoodH2896 is the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 which thou hast spokenH1696. And he saidH559, Is it not good, if peaceH7965 and truthH571 be in my daysH3117? {Is it…: or, Shall there not be peace and truth, etc}
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of HezekiahH2396, and all his mightH1369, and how he madeH6213 a poolH1295, and a conduitH8585, and broughtH935 waterH4325 into the cityH5892, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
And HezekiahH2396 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1: and ManassehH4519 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.

Then cameH935 IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 unto kingH4428 HezekiahH2396, and saidH559 unto him, What saidH559 these menH582? and from whenceH370 cameH935 they unto thee? And HezekiahH2396 saidH559, They are comeH935 from a farH7350 countryH776 unto me, even from BabylonH894.
Then saidH559 he, What have they seenH7200 in thine houseH1004? And HezekiahH2396 answeredH559, All that is in mine houseH1004 have they seenH7200: there is nothingH1697 among my treasuresH214 that I have not shewedH7200 them.
Then saidH559 IsaiahH3470 to HezekiahH2396, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635:
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, that all that is in thine houseH1004, and that which thy fathersH1 have laid up in storeH686 until this dayH3117, shall be carriedH5375 to BabylonH894: nothingH1697 shall be leftH3498, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
And of thy sonsH1121 that shall issueH3318 from thee, which thou shalt begetH3205, shall they take awayH3947; and they shall be eunuchsH5631 in the palaceH1964 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
Then saidH559 HezekiahH2396 to IsaiahH3470, GoodH2896 is the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 which thou hast spokenH1696. He saidH559 moreover, For there shall be peaceH7965 and truthH571 in my daysH3117.
But he went inH935, and stoodH5975 before his masterH113. And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto him, WhenceH370 comest thou, GehaziH1522? And he saidH559, Thy servantH5650 wentH1980 no whitherH575. {no whither: Heb. not hither or thither}
The LORDH3068 shall bringH5375 a nationH1471 against thee from farH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, as swift as the eagleH5404 fliethH1675; a nationH1471 whose tongueH3956 thou shalt not understandH8085; {understand: Heb. hear}
And he saidH559 unto him, WentH1980 not mine heartH3820 with thee, when the manH376 turnedH2015 again from his chariotH4818 to meetH7125 thee? Is it a timeH6256 to receiveH3947 moneyH3701, and to receiveH3947 garmentsH899, and oliveyardsH2132, and vineyardsH3754, and sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198?
And they wentH3212 to JoshuaH3091 unto the campH4264 at GilgalH1537, and saidH559 unto him, and to the menH376 of IsraelH3478, We be comeH935 from a farH7350 countryH776: now therefore makeH3772 ye a leagueH1285 with us.
And NathanH5416 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou art the manH376. Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, and I deliveredH5337 thee out of the handH3027 of SaulH7586;
And I gaveH5414 thee thy master'sH113 houseH1004, and thy master'sH113 wivesH802 into thy bosomH2436, and gaveH5414 thee the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and of JudahH3063; and if that had been too littleH4592, I would moreover have givenH3254 unto thee suchH2007 and such thingsH2007.
Wherefore hast thou despisedH959 the commandmentH1697 of the LORDH3068, to doH6213 evilH7451 in his sightH5869? thou hast killedH5221 UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 with the swordH2719, and hast takenH3947 his wifeH802 to be thy wifeH802, and hast slainH2026 him with the swordH2719 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
Now therefore the swordH2719 shall neverH5704+H5769 departH5493 from thine houseH1004; becauseH6118 thou hast despisedH959 me, and hast takenH3947 the wifeH802 of UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 to be thy wifeH802.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will raise upH6965 evilH7451 against thee out of thine own houseH1004, and I will takeH3947 thy wivesH802 before thine eyesH5869, and giveH5414 them unto thy neighbourH7453, and he shall lieH7901 with thy wivesH802 in the sightH5869 of this sunH8121.
For thou didstH6213 it secretlyH5643: but I will doH6213 this thingH1697 before all IsraelH3478, and before the sunH8121.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto NathanH5416, I have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068. And NathanH5416 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, The LORDH3068 also hath put awayH5674 thy sinH2403; thou shalt not dieH4191.
HowbeitH657, because by this deedH1697 thou hast givenH5006 great occasionH5006 to the enemiesH341 of the LORDH3068 to blasphemeH5006, the childH1121 also that is bornH3209 unto thee shall surelyH4191 dieH4191.
And NathanH5416 departedH3212 unto his houseH1004. And the LORDH3068 struckH5062 the childH3206 that Uriah'sH223 wifeH802 bareH3205 unto DavidH1732, and it was very sickH605.
And they saidH559 unto him, From a veryH3966 farH7350 countryH776 thy servantsH5650 are comeH935 because of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: for we have heardH8085 the fameH8089 of him, and all that he didH6213 in EgyptH4714,
And at that timeH6256 HananiH2607 the seerH7200 cameH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast reliedH8172 on the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, and not reliedH8172 on the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, therefore is the hostH2428 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 escapedH4422 out of thine handH3027.
Were not the EthiopiansH3569 and the LubimsH3864 a hugeH7230 hostH2428, with veryH3966 manyH7235 chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571? yet, because thou didst relyH8172 on the LORDH3068, he deliveredH5414 them into thine handH3027. {a huge: Heb. in abundance}
For the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 run to and froH7751 throughout the whole earthH776, to shew himself strongH2388 in the behalf of them whose heartH3824 is perfectH8003 toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishlyH5528: therefore from henceforthH6258 thou shalt haveH3426 warsH4421. {to shew…: or, strongly to hold with them, etc}
Then AsaH609 was wrothH3707 with the seerH7200, and putH5414 him in a prisonH4115 houseH1004; for he was in a rageH2197 with him because of this thing. And AsaH609 oppressedH7533 some of the peopleH5971 the same timeH6256. {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
They comeH935 from a farH4801 countryH776, from the endH7097 of heavenH8064, even the LORDH3068, and the weaponsH3627 of his indignationH2195, to destroyH2254 the whole landH776.
But there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 to him, sayingH559, O kingH4428, let not the armyH6635 of IsraelH3478 goH935 with thee; for the LORDH3068 is not with IsraelH3478, to wit, with all the childrenH1121 of EphraimH669.
But if thou wilt goH935, doH6213 it, be strongH2388 for the battleH4421: GodH430 shall make thee fallH3782 beforeH6440 the enemyH341: for GodH430 hathH3426 powerH3581 to helpH5826, and to cast downH3782.
And AmaziahH558 saidH559 to the manH376 of GodH430, But what shall we doH6213 for the hundredH3967 talentsH3603 which I have givenH5414 to the armyH1416 of IsraelH3478? And the manH376 of GodH430 answeredH559, The LORDH3068 isH3426 able to giveH5414 thee much moreH7235 than this. {army: Heb. band}
Wherefore the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against AmaziahH558, and he sentH7971 unto him a prophetH5030, which saidH559 unto him, Why hast thou soughtH1875 after the godsH430 of the peopleH5971, which could not deliverH5337 their own peopleH5971 out of thine handH3027?
And it came to pass, as he talkedH1696 with him, that the king saidH559 unto him, Art thou madeH5414 of the king'sH4428 counselH3289? forbearH2308; why shouldest thou be smittenH5221? Then the prophetH5030 forbareH2308, and saidH559, I knowH3045 that GodH430 hath determinedH3289 to destroyH7843 thee, because thou hast doneH6213 this, and hast not hearkenedH8085 unto my counselH6098. {determined: Heb. counselled}
Let the righteousH6662 smiteH1986 me; it shall be a kindnessH2617: and let him reproveH3198 me; it shall be an excellentH7218 oilH8081, which shall not breakH5106 my headH7218: for yet my prayerH8605 also shall be in their calamitiesH7451. {me; it shall be a…: or, let the rigteous smite mee kindly, and reprove me; let not their precious oil break my head, etc}
As an earringH5141 of goldH2091, and an ornamentH2481 of fine goldH3800, so is a wiseH2450 reproverH3198 upon an obedientH8085 earH241.
MicahH4320 the MorasthiteH4183 prophesiedH5012 in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and spakeH559 to all the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ZionH6726 shall be plowedH2790 like a fieldH7704, and JerusalemH3389 shall become heapsH5856, and the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the high placesH1116 of a forestH3293.
Did HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and all JudahH3063 put him at allH4191 to deathH4191? did he not fearH3373 the LORDH3068, and besoughtH2470 the LORDH3068+H6440, and the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451 which he had pronouncedH1696 against them? ThusH587 might we procureH6213 greatH1419 evilH7451 against our soulsH5315. {the LORD, and the: Heb. the face of the LORD, etc}
Also AmaziahH558 saidH559 unto AmosH5986, O thou seerH2374, goH3212, flee thee awayH1272 into the landH776 of JudahH3063, and there eatH398 breadH3899, and prophesyH5012 there:
But prophesyH5012 not againH3254 any more at BethelH1008: for it is the king'sH4428 chapelH4720, and it is the king'sH4467 courtH1004. {chapel: or, sanctuary} {king's court: Heb. house of the kingdom}
