2 Chronicles 32:29

Hezekiah’s Wealth and Honor

27 Hezekiah had very great riches and honor. And he made himself treasuries for silver, for gold, for precious stones, for spices, for shields, and for all kinds of desirable items;

28 storehouses for the harvest of grain, wine, and oil; and stalls for all kinds of livestock, and¹ folds for flocks.

29 Moreover he provided cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for ^aGod had given him very much property.

30 ^aThis same Hezekiah also stopped the water outlet of Upper Gihon, and brought the water by tunnel to the west side of the City of David. Hezekiah ^bprospered in all his works.

31 However, regarding the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, whom they ^asent to him to inquire about the wonder that was done in the land, God withdrew from him, in order to ^btest him, that He might know all that was in his heart.

Death of Hezekiah

32 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, indeed they are written in ^athe vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the ^bbook of the kings of Judah and Israel.
