1In those days Hezekiah was stricken with a terminal illness. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz visited him and told him, "This is what the LORD says, 'Give instructions to your household, for you are about to die; you will not get well.'"

1בַּיָּמִ֣ים הָהֵ֔ם חָלָ֥ה חִזְקִיָּ֖הוּ לָמ֑וּת וַיָּב֣וֹא אֵ֠לָיו יְשַׁעְיָ֨הוּ בֶן־ אָמ֜וֹץ הַנָּבִ֗יא וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֵלָ֜יו כֹּֽה־ אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ צַ֣ו לְבֵיתֶ֔ךָ כִּ֛י מֵ֥ת אַתָּ֖ה וְלֹ֥א תִֽחְיֶֽה׃

2Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,

2וַיַּסֵּ֧ב חִזְקִיָּ֛הוּ פָּנָ֖יו אֶל־ הַקִּ֑יר וַיִּתְפַּלֵּ֖ל אֶל־ יְהוָֽה׃

3"Please, LORD. Remember how I have served you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion, and how I have carried out your will." Then Hezekiah wept bitterly.

3וַיֹּאמַ֗ר אָנָּ֤ה יְהוָה֙ זְכָר־ נָ֞א אֵ֣ת אֲשֶׁ֧ר הִתְהַלַּ֣כְתִּי לְפָנֶ֗יךָ בֶּֽאֱמֶת֙ וּבְלֵ֣ב שָׁלֵ֔ם וְהַטּ֥וֹב בְּעֵינֶ֖יךָ עָשִׂ֑יתִי וַיֵּ֥בְךְּ חִזְקִיָּ֖הוּ בְּכִ֥י גָדֽוֹל׃ ס

4The LORD told Isaiah,

4וַֽיְהִי֙ דְּבַר־ יְהוָ֔ה אֶֽל־ יְשַׁעְיָ֖הוּ לֵאמֹֽר׃

5"Go and tell Hezekiah: 'This is what the LORD God of your ancestor David says: "I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Look, I will add fifteen years to your life,

5הָל֞וֹךְ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֶל־ חִזְקִיָּ֗הוּ כֹּֽה־ אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵי֙ דָּוִ֣ד אָבִ֔יךָ שָׁמַ֙עְתִּי֙ אֶת־ תְּפִלָּתֶ֔ךָ רָאִ֖יתִי אֶת־ דִּמְעָתֶ֑ךָ הִנְנִי֙ יוֹסִ֣ף עַל־ יָמֶ֔יךָ חֲמֵ֥שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה שָׁנָֽה׃

6and rescue you and this city from the king of Assyria. I will shield this city."'"

6וּמִכַּ֤ף מֶֽלֶךְ־ אַשּׁוּר֙ אַצִּ֣ילְךָ֔ וְאֵ֖ת הָעִ֣יר הַזֹּ֑את וְגַנּוֹתִ֖י עַל־ הָעִ֥יר הַזֹּֽאת׃

7Isaiah replied, "This is your sign from the LORD confirming that the LORD will do what he has said:

7וְזֶה־ לְּךָ֥ הָא֖וֹת מֵאֵ֣ת יְהוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁר֙ יַעֲשֶׂ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה אֶת־ הַדָּבָ֥ר הַזֶּ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֵּֽר׃

8Look, I will make the shadow go back ten steps on the stairs of Ahaz." And then the shadow went back ten steps.

8הִנְנִ֣י מֵשִׁ֣יב אֶת־ צֵ֣ל הַֽמַּעֲל֡וֹת אֲשֶׁ֣ר יָרְדָה֩ בְמַעֲל֨וֹת אָחָ֥ז בַּשֶּׁ֛מֶשׁ אֲחֹרַנִּ֖ית עֶ֣שֶׂר מַעֲל֑וֹת וַתָּ֤שָׁב הַשֶּׁ֙מֶשׁ֙ עֶ֣שֶׂר מַעֲל֔וֹת בַּֽמַּעֲל֖וֹת אֲשֶׁ֥ר יָרָֽדָה׃ ס

9This is the prayer of King Hezekiah of Judah when he was sick and then recovered from his illness:

9מִכְתָּ֖ב לְחִזְקִיָּ֣הוּ מֶֽלֶךְ־ יְהוּדָ֑ה בַּחֲלֹת֕וֹ וַיְחִ֖י מֵחָלְיֽוֹ׃

10"I thought, 'In the middle of my life I must walk through the gates of Sheol, I am deprived of the rest of my years.'

10אֲנִ֣י אָמַ֗רְתִּי בִּדְמִ֥י יָמַ֛י אֵלֵ֖כָה בְּשַׁעֲרֵ֣י שְׁא֑וֹל פֻּקַּ֖דְתִּי יֶ֥תֶר שְׁנוֹתָֽי׃

11"I thought, 'I will no longer see the LORD in the land of the living, I will no longer look on humankind with the inhabitants of the world.

11אָמַ֙רְתִּי֙ לֹא־ אֶרְאֶ֣ה יָ֔הּ יָ֖הּ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ הַחַיִּ֑ים לֹא־ אַבִּ֥יט אָדָ֛ם ע֖וֹד עִם־ י֥וֹשְׁבֵי חָֽדֶל׃

12My dwelling place is removed and taken away from me like a shepherd's tent. I rolled up my life like a weaver rolls cloth; from the loom he cuts me off. You turn day into night and end my life.

12דּוֹרִ֗י נִסַּ֧ע וְנִגְלָ֛ה מִנִּ֖י כְּאֹ֣הֶל רֹעִ֑י קִפַּ֨דְתִּי כָאֹרֵ֤ג חַיַּי֙ מִדַּלָּ֣ה יְבַצְּעֵ֔נִי מִיּ֥וֹם עַד־ לַ֖יְלָה תַּשְׁלִימֵֽנִי׃

13I cry out until morning; like a lion he shatters all my bones; you turn day into night and end my life.

13שִׁוִּ֤יתִי עַד־ בֹּ֙קֶר֙ כָּֽאֲרִ֔י כֵּ֥ן יְשַׁבֵּ֖ר כָּל־ עַצְמוֹתָ֑י מִיּ֥וֹם עַד־ לַ֖יְלָה תַּשְׁלִימֵֽנִי׃

14Like a swallow or a thrush I chirp, I coo like a dove; my eyes grow tired from looking up to the sky. O sovereign master, I am oppressed; help me!

14כְּס֤וּס עָגוּר֙ כֵּ֣ן אֲצַפְצֵ֔ף אֶהְגֶּ֖ה כַּיּוֹנָ֑ה דַּלּ֤וּ עֵינַי֙ לַמָּר֔וֹם אֲדֹנָ֖י עָֽשְׁקָה־ לִּ֥י עָרְבֵֽנִי׃

15What can I say? He has decreed and acted. I will walk slowly all my years because I am overcome with grief.

15מָֽה־ אֲדַבֵּ֥ר וְאָֽמַר־ לִ֖י וְה֣וּא עָשָׂ֑ה אֶדַּדֶּ֥ה כָל־ שְׁנוֹתַ֖י עַל־ מַ֥ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃

16O sovereign master, your decrees can give men life; may years of life be restored to me. Restore my health and preserve my life.'

16אֲדֹנָ֖י עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם יִֽחְי֑וּ וּלְכָל־ בָּהֶן֙ חַיֵּ֣י רוּחִ֔י וְתַחֲלִימֵ֖נִי וְהַחֲיֵֽנִי׃

17"Look, the grief I experienced was for my benefit. You delivered me from the pit of oblivion. For you removed all my sins from your sight.

17הִנֵּ֥ה לְשָׁל֖וֹם מַר־ לִ֣י מָ֑ר וְאַתָּ֞ה חָשַׁ֤קְתָּ נַפְשִׁי֙ מִשַּׁ֣חַת בְּלִ֔י כִּ֥י הִשְׁלַ֛כְתָּ אַחֲרֵ֥י גֵוְךָ֖ כָּל־ חֲטָאָֽי׃

18Indeed Sheol does not give you thanks; death does not praise you. Those who descend into the pit do not anticipate your faithfulness.

18כִּ֣י לֹ֥א שְׁא֛וֹל תּוֹדֶ֖ךָּ מָ֣וֶת יְהַלְלֶ֑ךָּ לֹֽא־ יְשַׂבְּר֥וּ יֽוֹרְדֵי־ ב֖וֹר אֶל־ אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

19The living person, the living person, he gives you thanks, as I do today. A father tells his sons about your faithfulness.

19חַ֥י חַ֛י ה֥וּא יוֹדֶ֖ךָ כָּמ֣וֹנִי הַיּ֑וֹם אָ֣ב לְבָנִ֔ים יוֹדִ֖יעַ אֶל־ אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃

20The LORD is about to deliver me, and we will celebrate with music for the rest of our lives in the LORD's temple."

20יְהוָ֖ה לְהוֹשִׁיעֵ֑נִי וּנְגִנוֹתַ֧י נְנַגֵּ֛ן כָּל־ יְמֵ֥י חַיֵּ֖ינוּ עַל־ בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃

21Isaiah ordered, "Let them take a fig cake and apply it to the ulcerated sore and he will get well."

21וַיֹּ֣אמֶר יְשַׁעְיָ֔הוּ יִשְׂא֖וּ דְּבֶ֣לֶת תְּאֵנִ֑ים וְיִמְרְח֥וּ עַֽל־ הַשְּׁחִ֖ין וְיֶֽחִי׃

22Hezekiah said, "What is the confirming sign that I will go up to the LORD's temple?"

22וַיֹּ֥אמֶר חִזְקִיָּ֖הוּ מָ֣ה א֑וֹת כִּ֥י אֶעֱלֶ֖ה בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃ ס
