2 Kings 20:1-7

Bible Text

[1] In those days was Hezekiah sick to death. Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, Thus says Yahweh, Set your house in order: for you shall die, and not live. [2] Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Yahweh, saying, [3] Remember now, Yahweh, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight. Hezekiah wept sore. [4] It happened, before Isaiah was gone out into the middle part of the city, that the word of Yahweh came to him, saying, [5] Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, Thus says Yahweh, the God 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 to the house of Yahweh. [6] I will add to 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 my own sake, and for my servant David's sake. [7] Isaiah said, Take a cake of figs. They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
