RF KI2 20:1 (B.C. 713.) Hezekiah's Illness.
About this time Hezekiah had a serious sickness, so Isaiah came to him and said, "Thus says the EVER-LIVING, 'Arrange for your family, for you will die and not live!'"
RF KI2 20:2 He in consequence turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the EVER-LIVING, saying:—
RF KI2 20:3 "I entreat You, EVER-LIVING, to remember how I walked before You in truth, and with a thankful heart, and the good I have done in Your sight!" Then Hezekiah wept with much weeping.
RF KI2 20:4 (B.C. 713.) Longer life granted to Hezekiah.
And it happened that Isaiah had not gone halfway to the town, when the message of the EVER-LIVING came to him to say:
RF KI2 20:5 "Return and say to Hezekiah, the shepherd of My people: 'Thus says the EVER-LIVING GOD of David, your ancestor: "I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears;—I will cure you. Three days hence you shall go up to the House of the EVER-LIVING!
RF KI2 20:6 I will also add to your days fifteen years, and I will deliver you from the hand of the King of Ashur, with this city, and I will protect this city, because of Myself, and because of David My servant."'"
RF KI2 20:7 Isaiah then said, "Take a plaster of figs, and apply it to the inflammation, and he will live!"
RF KI2 20:8 But Hezekiah asked Isaiah, "What evidence is there that the EVER-LIVING will cure me, and that I shall three days hence go up to the House of the EVER-LIVING?"
RF KI2 20:9 (B.C. 713.) The Shadow goes back Ten Degrees.
When Isaiah replied, "This is the evidence from the EVER-LIVING to you, that the EVER-LIVING will fulfil the promise He has promised: the shadow that has gone upwards ten degrees, shall it turn back the ten degrees it has risen."
RF KI2 20:10 Hezekiah, however answered him, "It is easy for the shadow to advance ten degrees on the sun-dial, but not for the shadow to go back ten degrees!"
RF KI2 20:11 But Isaiah the Preacher called to the EVER-LIVING, and the shadow turned back from the advance, which it had gone upon the sun-dial of Ahaz, receding ten degrees.
RF KI2 20:12 (B.C. 712.) Baradok of Babel sends an Embassy to Hezekiah.
At this time Barodak-Baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babel, sent letters and presents to Hezekiah, for he had heard that Hezekiah had been ill.
RF KI2 20:13 And Hezekiah listened to them, and showed them all the stores of his treasures; the silver and gold, and perfumes, and the fine oil; and all the arsenal of his armour; and everything contained in his treasuries. There was nothing that Hezekiah did not show them, in his Palace, and in his dominions.
RF KI2 20:14 Consequently Isaiah the Preacher came to the king Hezekiah and asked him, "What did those men say? and from whom have they come to you?" And Hezekiah answered him, "From a distant country;—they came from Babel."
RF KI2 20:15 Then he asked, "What did you show them in your Palace?" When Hezekiah replied, "They have seen all that is in my Palace. There is nothing in my treasuries which they have not seen!
RF KI2 20:16 "But Isaiah answered Hezekiah:—"Listen to a message from the EVER-LIVING.
RF KI2 20:17 Look! the days are coming when all that is in your palace, and which your forefathers have stored up to this day, will be carried to Babel,—not a thing will be left, says the EVER-LIVING!
RF KI2 20:18 And your sons who proceed from you, whom you have produced, will be seized and made eunuchs in the Temple of the kings of Babel!"
RF KI2 20:19 Hezekiah only replied to Isaiah, "The message from the EVER-LIVING that you have delivered is good! for it says that peace and safety shall be in my days!"
RF KI2 20:20 Regarding the rest of the affairs of Hezekiah, and all his achievements, and how he made the reservoirs and the aqueducts, and brought the waters to the city, they are recorded in the history of events of the times of the kings of Judah.
RF KI2 20:21 But Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned after him.
