Isaiah 38:1-8
1In those daysH3117 was HezekiahH2396 sickH2470 unto deathH4191. And IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 cameH935 unto him, and saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Set thine houseH1004 in orderH6680: for thou shalt dieH4191, and not liveH2421.1 2Then HezekiahH2396 turnedH5437 his faceH6440 toward the wallH7023, and prayedH6419 unto YhwhH3068, 3And saidH559, RememberH2142 now, O YhwhH3068, I beseechH577 thee, how I have walkedH1980 beforeH6440 thee in truthH571 and with a perfectH8003 heartH3820, and have doneH6213 that which is goodH2896 in thy sightH5869. And HezekiahH2396 weptH1065H1058 soreH1419.2
4Then came the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 to IsaiahH3470, sayingH559, 5GoH1980, and sayH559 to HezekiahH2396, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, the GodH430 of DavidH1732 thy fatherH1, I have heardH8085 thy prayerH8605, I have seenH7200 thy tearsH1832: behold, I will addH3254 unto thy daysH3117 fifteenH6240H2568 yearsH8141. 6And I will deliverH5337 thee and this cityH5892 out of the handH3709 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804: and I will defendH1598 this cityH5892. 7And this shall be a signH226 unto thee from YhwhH3068, that YhwhH3068 will doH6213 this thingH1697 that he hath spokenH1696; 8Behold, I will bring againH7725 the shadowH6738 of the degreesH4609, which is gone downH3381 in the sunH8121 dialH4609 of AhazH271, tenH6235 degreesH4609 backwardH322. So the sunH8121 returnedH7725 tenH6235 degreesH4609, by which degreesH4609 it was gone downH3381.3
