2 Kings 20:1-7

2 Kings 20:1-7 CSB

In those days  Hezekiah became terminally ill.  The prophet Isaiah  son of Amoz came and said to him, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Set your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’ ”  Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall  and prayed to the LORD, “Please, LORD, remember  how I have walked before you faithfully and wholeheartedly and have done what pleases you.”  , And Hezekiah wept bitterly.  Isaiah had not yet gone out of the inner courtyard when the word of the LORD came to him: “Go back and tell Hezekiah, the leader  of my people, ‘This is what the LORD God of your ancestor David says: I have heard your prayer;  I have seen your tears. Look, I will heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the LORD’s temple. I will add fifteen years to your life. I will rescue you and this city from the grasp of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.’ ”  Then Isaiah said, “Bring a lump of pressed figs.” So they brought it and applied it to his infected skin, and he recovered.
