WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.940 Chapter 20 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. 00:06.680 --> 00:10.780 And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him and said unto him, 00:11.100 --> 00:17.500 Thus saith the Lord, set thine house in order, for thou shalt die and not live. 00:17.900 --> 00:22.780 Then he turned his face to the wall and prayed unto the Lord, saying, I beseech 00:22.780 --> 00:28.460 thee, O Lord, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a 00:28.460 --> 00:32.280 perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. 00:32.820 --> 00:34.660 And Hezekiah wept sore. 00:35.220 --> 00:40.180 And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word 00:40.180 --> 00:44.340 of the Lord came to him, saying, Turn again, and tell Hezekiah, 00:44.440 --> 00:49.280 the captain of my people, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, 00:50.120 --> 00:53.920 I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears. 00:54.560 --> 00:56.460 Behold, I will heal thee. 00:56.460 --> 01:02.640 On the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the Lord, and I will add unto thy 01:02.640 --> 01:08.120 days fifteen years, and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the 01:08.120 --> 01:13.580 king of Assyria, and I will defend this city for mine own sake and for my servant 01:13.580 --> 01:14.500 David's sake. 01:14.740 --> 01:17.200 And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. 01:17.580 --> 01:20.380 And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered. 01:22.260 --> 01:27.220 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the Lord will 01:27.220 --> 01:31.820 heal me, and that I shall go up unto the house of the Lord the third day? 01:32.160 --> 01:36.940 And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the Lord, that the Lord will do the 01:36.940 --> 01:38.400 thing that he hath spoken. 01:39.260 --> 01:43.280 Shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 01:44.140 --> 01:49.580 And Hezekiah answered, Is it a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees? 01:49.580 --> 01:53.740 Nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 01:54.380 --> 01:58.580 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the Lord, And he brought the shadow ten 01:58.580 --> 02:02.200 degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 02:02.840 --> 02:08.280 At that time Barodak Baladon, the son of Baladon, king of Babylon, sent letters and 02:08.280 --> 02:09.520 a present unto Hezekiah. 02:10.060 --> 02:12.340 For he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 02:12.860 --> 02:16.660 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and showed them all the house of his 02:16.660 --> 02:21.580 precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, 02:21.920 --> 02:25.660 and all the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures. 02:26.280 --> 02:30.300 There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah 02:30.300 --> 02:31.120 showed them not. 02:31.900 --> 02:36.180 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said 02:36.180 --> 02:38.880 these men, and from whence came they unto thee? 02:39.020 --> 02:43.500 And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon. 02:43.860 --> 02:46.260 And he said, What have they seen in thine house? 02:46.260 --> 02:51.360 And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen. 02:51.940 --> 02:55.660 There is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them. 02:55.900 --> 02:59.080 And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Lord. 02:59.680 --> 03:05.620 Behold, the day is come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers 03:05.620 --> 03:09.240 have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon. 03:10.100 --> 03:12.520 Nothing shall be left, saith the Lord. 03:12.520 --> 03:18.000 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they 03:18.000 --> 03:22.600 take away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 03:22.920 --> 03:27.420 Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord, which thou 03:27.420 --> 03:28.080 hast spoken. 03:28.340 --> 03:33.560 And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days? 03:33.980 --> 03:38.300 And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, 03:38.540 --> 03:42.640 and a conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of 03:42.640 --> 03:44.200 the chronicles of the kings of Judah? 03:45.240 --> 03:49.940 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
