2 Kings 20:1-7
11In those days Hezekiah became 2mortally ill. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘3Set your house in order, for you are going to die and not live.’” 2Then he turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, saying, 3“Please, Lord, just 4remember 5how I have walked before You wholeheartedly and in truth, and have done what is good in Your sight!” And 6Hezekiah wept 7profusely. 4And even before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, 5“Return and say to 8Hezekiah the leader of My people, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your father David says: “9I have heard your prayer, 10I have seen your tears; behold, I am going to heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the Lord. 6And I will add fifteen years to your 11life, and I will save you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria; and 12I will protect this city for My own sake and for My servant David’s sake.”’” 7Then Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” And they took it and placed it on the inflamed spot, and he recovered.
