2 Kings 20:1

Hezekiah’s Life Extended

1 In ^athose days Hezekiah was sick and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, went to him and said to him, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Set your house in order, for you shall die, and not live.’ ”

2 Then he turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to the Lord, saying,

3 ^a“Remember now, O Lord, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

4 And it happened, before Isaiah had gone out into the middle court, that the word of the Lord came to him, saying,

5 “Return and tell Hezekiah ^athe leader of My people, ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of David your father: ^b“I have heard your prayer, I have seen ^cyour tears; surely I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the Lord.
