Isaiah 38:16 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 In those days Hezekiah became sick and was at the point of death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: Set your house in order; for you shall die, you shall not recover."
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the LORD,
3 and said, "Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in thy sight." And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4 Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah:
5 "Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; behold, I will add fifteen years to your life.
6 I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and defend this city.
7 "This is the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has promised:
8 Behold, I will make the shadow cast by the declining sun on the dial of Ahaz turn back ten steps." So the sun turned back on the dial the ten steps by which it had declined.
9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, after he had been sick and had recovered from his sickness:
10 I said, In the noontide of my days I must depart; I am consigned to the gates of Sheol for the rest of my years.
11 I said, I shall not see the LORD in the land of the living; I shall look upon man no more among the inhabitants of the world.
12 My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me like a shepherd's tent; like a weaver I have rolled up my life; he cuts me off from the loom; from day to night thou dost bring me to an end;
13 I cry for help until morning; like a lion he breaks all my bones; from day to night thou dost bring me to an end.
14 Like a swallow or a crane I clamor, I moan like a dove. My eyes are weary with looking upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be thou my security!
15 But what can I say? For he has spoken to me, and he himself has done it. All my sleep has fled because of the bitterness of my soul.
16 O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these is the life of my spirit. Oh, restore me to health and make me live!
17 Lo, it was for my welfare that I had great bitterness; but thou hast held back my life from the pit of destruction, for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
18 For Sheol cannot thank thee, death cannot praise thee; those who go down to the pit cannot hope for thy faithfulness.
19 The living, the living, he thanks thee, as I do this day; the father makes known to the children thy faithfulness.
20 The LORD will save me, and we will sing to stringed instruments all the days of our life, at the house of the LORD.
21 Now Isaiah had said, "Let them take a cake of figs, and apply it to the boil, that he may recover."
22 Hezekiah also had said, "What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD?"
1 In those H1992 days H3117 was Hezekiah sick H2470 H2396 unto death. H4191 And Isaiah H3470 the prophet H5030 the son H1121 of Amoz H531 came H935 unto H413 him , and said H559 unto H413 him, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 Set thine house in order H6680 H1004 : for H3588 thou H859 shalt die, H4191 and not H3808 live. H2421
2 Then Hezekiah H2396 turned H5437 his face H6440 toward H413 the wall, H7023 and prayed H6419 unto H413 the LORD, H3068
3 And said, H559 Remember H2142 now, H4994 O LORD, H3068 I beseech thee, H577 H853 how H834 I have walked H1980 before H6440 thee in truth H571 and with a perfect H8003 heart, H3820 and have done H6213 that which is good H2896 in thy sight. H5869 And Hezekiah H2396 wept H1058 sore H1419 H1065 .
4 Then came H1961 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 to H413 Isaiah, H3470 saying, H559
5 Go H1980 , and say H559 to H413 Hezekiah, H2396 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 the God H430 of David H1732 thy father, H1 I have heard H8085 H853 thy prayer, H8605 I have seen H7200 H853 thy tears: H1832 behold, H2009 I will add H3254 unto H5921 thy days H3117 fifteen H2568 H6240 years. H8141
6 And I will deliver H5337 thee and this H2063 city H5892 out of the hand H4480 H3709 of the king H4428 of Assyria: H804 and I will defend H1598 H5921 this H2063 city. H5892
7 And this H2088 shall be a sign H226 unto thee from H4480 H854 the LORD, H3068 that H834 the LORD H3068 will do H6213 H853 this H2088 thing H1697 that H834 he hath spoken; H1696
8 Behold H2009 , I will bring again H7725 H853 the shadow H6738 of the degrees, H4609 which H834 is gone down H3381 in the sun H8121 dial H4609 of Ahaz, H271 ten H6235 degrees H4609 backward. H322 So the sun H8121 returned H7725 ten H6235 degrees, H4609 by which H834 degrees H4609 it was gone down. H3381
9 The writing H4385 of Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah, H3063 when he had been sick, H2470 and was recovered H2421 of his sickness H4480 H2483 :
10 I H589 said H559 in the cutting off H1824 of my days, H3117 I shall go H1980 to the gates H8179 of the grave: H7585 I am deprived H6485 of the residue H3499 of my years. H8141
11 I said, H559 I shall not H3808 see H7200 the LORD, H3050 even the LORD, H3050 in the land H776 of the living: H2416 I shall behold H5027 man H120 no H3808 more H5750 with H5973 the inhabitants H3427 of the world. H2309
12 Mine age H1755 is departed, H5265 and is removed H1540 from H4480 me as a shepherd's H7473 tent: H168 I have cut off H7088 like a weaver H707 my life: H2416 he will cut me off H1214 with pining sickness H4480 H1803 : from day H4480 H3117 even to H5704 night H3915 wilt thou make an end H7999 of me.
13 I reckoned H7737 till H5704 morning, H1242 that , as a lion, H738 so H3651 will he break H7665 all H3605 my bones: H6106 from day H4480 H3117 even to H5704 night H3915 wilt thou make an end H7999 of me.
14 Like a crane H5483 or a swallow, H5693 so H3651 did I chatter: H6850 I did mourn H1897 as a dove: H3123 mine eyes H5869 fail H1809 with looking upward: H4791 O LORD, H136 I am oppressed; H6234 undertake H6149 for me.
15 What H4100 shall I say H1696 ? he hath both spoken H559 unto me , and himself H1931 hath done H6213 it : I shall go softly H1718 all H3605 my years H8141 in H5921 the bitterness H4751 of my soul. H5315
16 O Lord, H136 by H5921 these things men live, H2421 and in all H3605 these H2004 things is the life H2416 of my spirit: H7307 so wilt thou recover H2492 me , and make me to live. H2421
17 Behold H2009 , for peace H7965 I had great bitterness H4751 H4843 : but thou H859 hast in love H2836 to my soul H5315 delivered it from the pit H4480 H7845 of corruption: H1097 for H3588 thou hast cast H7993 all H3605 my sins H2399 behind H310 thy back. H1460
18 For H3588 the grave H7585 cannot H3808 praise H3034 thee, death H4194 can not celebrate H1984 thee : they that go down H3381 into the pit H953 cannot H3808 hope H7663 for H413 thy truth. H571
19 The living, H2416 the living, H2416 he H1931 shall praise H3034 thee , as I do this day: H3117 the father H1 to the children H1121 shall make known H3045 H413 thy truth. H571
20 The LORD H3068 was ready to save H3467 me : therefore we will sing my songs H5059 to the stringed instruments H5058 all H3605 the days H3117 of our life H2416 in H5921 the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068
21 For Isaiah H3470 had said, H559 Let them take H5375 a lump H1690 of figs, H8384 and lay it for a plaster H4799 upon H5921 the boil, H7822 and he shall recover. H2421
22 Hezekiah H2396 also had said, H559 What H4100 is the sign H226 that H3588 I shall go up H5927 to the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 ?
