Isaiah 38:17 (RV) Revised Version

1 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD,
3 and said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.
4 Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,
5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.
7 And this shall he the sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he hath spoken:
8 behold, I will cause the shadow on the steps, which is gone down on the dial of Ahaz with the sun, to return backward ten steps. So the sun returned ten steps on the dial whereon it was gone down.
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness.
10 I said, In the noontide of my days I shall go into the gates of the grave: I am deprived of the residue of my years.
11 I said, I shall not see the LORD, {cf15i even} the LORD in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
12 Mine age is removed, and is carried away from me as a shepherd�s tent: I have rolled up like a weaver my life; he will cut me off from the loom: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
13 I quieted {cf15i myself} until morning; as a lion, so he breaketh all my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
14 Like a swallow {cf15i or} a crane, so did I chatter; I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail {cf15i with looking} upward; O LORD, I am oppressed, be thou my surety.
15 What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it: I shall go softly all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.
16 O Lord, by these things men live, and wholly therein is the life of my spirit: wherefore recover thou me, and make me to live.
17 Behold, {cf15i it was} for {cf15i my} peace {cf15i that} I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
18 For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
20 The LORD is {cf15i ready} to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.
21 Now Isaiah had said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a plaister upon the boil, and he shall 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 ?
