Isaiah 38:1-22

In those days
<03117>
was Hezekiah
<02396>
sick
<02470> (8804)
unto death
<04191> (8800)_.
And Isaiah
<03470>
the prophet
<05030>
the son
<01121>
of Amoz
<0531>
came
<0935> (8799)
unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Set thine house
<01004>
in order
<06680> (8761)_:
for thou shalt die
<04191> (8801)_,
and not live
<02421> (8799)_.
{Set...: Heb. Give charge concerning thy house}
Then Hezekiah
<02396>
turned
<05437> (8686)
his face
<06440>
toward the wall
<07023>_,
and prayed
<06419> (8691)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
Remember
<02142> (8798)
now, O LORD
<03068>_,
I beseech
<0577>
thee, how I have walked
<01980> (8694)
before
<06440>
thee in truth
<0571>
and with a perfect
<08003>
heart
<03820>_,
and have done
<06213> (8804)
[that which is] good
<02896>
in thy sight
<05869>_.
And Hezekiah
<02396>
wept
<01058> (8799) <01065>
sore
<01419>_.
{sore: Heb. with great weeping}
Then came the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
to Isaiah
<03470>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<01980> (8800)_,
and say
<0559> (8804)
to Hezekiah
<02396>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of David
<01732>
thy father
<01>_,
I have heard
<08085> (8804)
thy prayer
<08605>_,
I have seen
<07200> (8804)
thy tears
<01832>_:
behold, I will add
<03254> (8802)
unto thy days
<03117>
fifteen
<02568> <06240>
years
<08141>_.
And I will deliver
<05337> (8686)
thee and this city
<05892>
out of the hand
<03709>
of the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_:
and I will defend
<01598> (8804)
this city
<05892>_.
And this [shall be] a sign
<0226>
unto thee from the LORD
<03068>_,
that the LORD
<03068>
will do
<06213> (8799)
this thing
<01697>
that he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_;
Behold, I will bring again
<07725> (8688)
the shadow
<06738>
of the degrees
<04609>_,
which is gone down
<03381> (8804)
in the sun
<08121>
dial
<04609>
of Ahaz
<0271>_,
ten
<06235>
degrees
<04609>
backward
<0322>_.
So the sun
<08121>
returned
<07725> (8799)
ten
<06235>
degrees
<04609>_,
by which degrees
<04609>
it was gone down
<03381> (8804)_.
{sun dial: Heb. degrees by, or, with the sun}
The writing
<04385>
of Hezekiah
<02396>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
when he had been sick
<02470> (8800)_,
and was recovered
<02421> (8799)
of his sickness
<02483>_:
I said
<0559> (8804)
in the cutting off
<01824>
of my days
<03117>_,
I shall go
<03212> (8799)
to the gates
<08179>
of the grave
<07585>_:
I am deprived
<06485> (8795)
of the residue
<03499>
of my years
<08141>_.
I said
<0559> (8804)_,
I shall not see
<07200> (8799)
the LORD
<03050>_,
[even] the LORD
<03050>_,
in the land
<0776>
of the living
<02416>_:
I shall behold
<05027> (8686)
man
<0120>
no more with the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the world
<02309>_.
Mine age
<01755>
is departed
<05265> (8738)_,
and is removed
<01540> (8738)
from me as a shepherd's
<07473>
tent
<0168>_:
I have cut off
<07088> (8765)
like a weaver
<0707> (8802)
my life
<02416>_:
he will cut me off
<01214> (8762)
with pining sickness
<01803>_:
from day
<03117>
[even] to night
<03915>
wilt thou make an end
<07999> (8686)
of me. {with...: or, from the thrum}
I reckoned
<07737> (8765)
till morning
<01242>_,
[that], as a lion
<0738>_,
so will he break
<07665> (8762)
all my bones
<06106>_:
from day
<03117>
[even] to night
<03915>
wilt thou make an end
<07999> (8686)
of me.
Like a crane
<05483>
[or] a swallow
<05693>_,
so did I chatter
<06850> (8770)_:
I did mourn
<01897> (8799)
as a dove
<03123>_:
mine eyes
<05869>
fail
<01809> (8804)
[with looking] upward
<04791>_:
O LORD
<03068>_,
I am oppressed
<06234>_;
undertake
<06148> (8798)
for me. {undertake...: or, ease me}
What shall I say
<01696> (8762)_?
he hath both spoken
<0559> (8804)
unto me, and himself hath done
<06213> (8804)
[it]: I shall go softly
<01718> (8691)
all my years
<08141>
in the bitterness
<04751>
of my soul
<05315>_.
O Lord
<0136>_,
by these [things men] live
<02421> (8799)_,
and in all these [things is] the life
<02416>
of my spirit
<07307>_:
so wilt thou recover
<02492> (8686)
me, and make me to live
<02421> (8685)_.
Behold, for peace
<07965>
I had great bitterness
<04751> <04843> (8804)_:
but thou hast in love
<02836> (8804)
to my soul
<05315>
[delivered it] from the pit
<07845>
of corruption
<01097>_:
for thou hast cast
<07993> (8689)
all my sins
<02399>
behind
<0310>
thy back
<01460>_.
{for peace...: or, on my peace came great bitterness} {thou hast in...: Heb. thou hast loved my soul from the pit}
For the grave
<07585>
cannot praise
<03034> (8686)
thee, death
<04194>
can [not] celebrate
<01984> (8762)
thee: they that go down
<03381> (8802)
into the pit
<0953>
cannot hope
<07663> (8762)
for thy truth
<0571>_.
The living
<02416>_,
the living
<02416>_,
he shall praise
<03034> (8686)
thee, as I [do] this day
<03117>_:
the father
<01>
to the children
<01121>
shall make known
<03045> (8686)
thy truth
<0571>_.
The LORD
<03068>
[was ready] to save
<03467> (8687)
me: therefore we will sing my songs
<05058>
to the stringed instruments
<05059> (8762)
all the days
<03117>
of our life
<02416>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
For Isaiah
<03470>
had said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let them take
<05375> (8799)
a lump
<01690>
of figs
<08384>_,
and lay [it] for a plaister
<04799> (8799)
upon the boil
<07822>_,
and he shall recover
<02421> (8799)_.
Hezekiah
<02396>
also had said
<0559> (8799)_,
What [is] the sign
<0226>
that I shall go up
<05927> (8799)
to the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
