Isaiah - Chapter: 38


38:1	In those daies was Hezekiah sicke vnto death: and Isaiah the Prophet the sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and said vnto him; Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not liue.
38:2	Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed vnto the Lord,
38:3	And said, Remember now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfect heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.
38:4	Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
38:5	Goe and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Dauid thy father; I haue heard thy prayer, I haue seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.
38:6	And I will deliuer thee and this citie, out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this citie.
38:7	And this shall be a signe vnto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will doe this thing that he hath spoken.
38:8	Behold, I will bring againe the shadow of the degrees which is gone downe in the Sunne-diall of Ahaz ten degrees backward: so the Sunne returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone downe.
38:9	The writing of Hezekiah king of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sicknesse:
38:10	I saide in the cutting off of my dayes; I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres.
38:11	I said, I shal not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shal behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
38:12	Mine age is departed, and is remoued from me as a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut mee off with pining sicknesse: from day euen to night wilt thou make an end of me.
38:13	I reckoned till morning, that as a Lyon so will hee breake all my bones: from day euen to night wilt thou make an end of me.
38:14	Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter; I did mourne as a doue: mine eyes faile with looking vpward: O Lord, I am oppressed, vndertake for me.
38:15	What shall I say? hee hath both spoken vnto mee, and himselfe hath done it: I shall goe softly, all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.
38:16	O Lord, by these things men liue: and in all these things is the life of my spirit, so wilt thou recouer me, and make me to liue.
38:17	Behold, for peace I had great bitternesse, but thou hast in loue to my soule deliuered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
38:18	For the graue cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that goe downe into the pit cannot hope for thy trueth.
38:19	The liuing, the liuing, hee shall praise thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall make knowen thy trueth.
38:20	The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments, all the dayes of our life, in the house of the Lord.
38:21	For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lumpe of figges, and lay it for a plaister vpon the boile, and he shall recouer.
38:22	Hezekiah also had said, what is the signe, that I shall goe vp to the house of the Lord ?


38:1	About that time was Hezekiah sicke vnto the death, and the Prophet Isaiah sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and sayd vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Put thine house in an order, for thou shalt dye, and not liue.
38:2	Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
38:3	And saide, I beseeche thee, Lord, remember nowe howe I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfite heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.
38:4	Then came the worde of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
38:5	Goe, and say vnto Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord God of Dauid thy father, I haue heard thy prayer, and seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.
38:6	And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the King of Asshur, and this citie: for I will defende this citie.
38:7	And this signe shalt thou haue of ye Lord, that ye Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken,
38:8	Beholde, I will bring againe the shadowe of the degrees (whereby it is gone downe in the diall of Ahaz by the sunne) ten degrees backeward: so the sunne returned by tenne degrees, by the which degrees it was gone downe.
38:9	The writing of Hezekiah King of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sickenesse.
38:10	I saide in the cutting off of my dayes, I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres.
38:11	I said, I shall not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shall see man no more among the inhabitants of the world.
38:12	Mine habitation is departed, and is remoued from me, like a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut me off from the height: from day to night, thou wilt make an ende of me.
38:13	I rekoned to the morning: but he brake all my bones, like a lion: from day to night wilt thou make an ende of me.
38:14	Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourne as a doue: mine eies were lift vp on high: O Lord, it hath oppressed me, comfort me.
38:15	What shall I say? for he hath said it to me, and he hath done it: I shall walke weakely all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.
38:16	O Lord, to them that ouerliue them, and to all that are in them, the life of my spirite shalbe knowen, that thou causedst me to sleepe and hast giuen life to me.
38:17	Beholde, for felicitie I had bitter griefe, but it was thy pleasure to deliuer my soule from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
38:18	For the graue cannot confesse thee: death cannot praise thee: they that goe downe into the pit, cannot hope for thy trueth.
38:19	But the liuing, the liuing, he shall confesse thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall declare thy trueth.
38:20	The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my song, all the dayes of our life in the House of the Lord.
38:21	Then said Isaiah, Take a lumpe of drye figs and lay it vpon the boyle, and he shall recouer.
38:22	Also Hezekiah had said, What is ye signe, that I shall goe vp into the House of the Lord?


38:1	Not longe afore this, was Hezechia sycke vnto the deeth, & the prophete Esay the sonne of Amoz came vnto him, & sayd: Thus commaundeth the Lord: Set thyne house in ordre, for thou must dye, and shalt not escape.
38:2	Then Hezechia turned hys face towarde the wall, and prayed vnto the Lorde,
38:3	and sayde: Remembre (O Lorde) that I haue walcked before the in treuth and a stedfast herte, & haue done the thynge that is pleasaunt to the. And Hezechia wepte sore
38:4	Then sayde God vnto Esay:
38:5	Go and speake vnto Hezechia: the Lord God of Dauid thy father sendeth the this worde: I haue hearde thy prayer, and consydred thy teares, beholde, I will put fyftene yeares mo vnto thy lyfe,
38:6	and delyuer the and the cytie also, from the hande of the kynge of Assyria, for I wyll defende the cytie:
38:7	And take the thys token of the Lord, that he will do it, as he hath spoken:
38:8	Beholde, I wyll returne the shadowe of Ahaz dyal, that nowe is layed out with the Sunne and bringe it ten degrees backward. So the Sunne turned ten degrees backwarde, the which he was descended afore.
38:9	A thanckesgeuynge, which Hezekia Kynge of Iuda wrote, when he had bene sycke, and was recouered.
38:10	I thought I shulde haue gone to the gates of hell when myne age was shortened, and haue wanted the resydue of my yeares.
38:11	I spake within my selfe: I shall neuer viset the Lorde (the Lord I saye) in thys lyfe. I shal neuer se man among the dwellers of the worlde.
38:12	Myne age is folden vp together, & taken awaye fro me, lyke a shepherdes cotage: I haue hewen of my lyfe by my synnes, lyke as a weeuer cutteth of hys webb. He wyll with pyninge sycknesse make an ende of me: yee, he wyll make en ende of me in one daye.
38:13	I thought I wolde haue lyued vnto the morowe, but he brosed my bones lyke a lyon, and in one daye thou wilt make an ende of me.
38:14	Then chatred I lyke a swalowe, and lyke a crane, and mourned as a doue. I lyfte vp myne eyes into the heygth: O Lorde (sayde I) my sycknes kepeth me downe: ease thou me.
38:15	What shall I saye? The Lorde hath made a promise to me. Yee, and he him selfe hath perfourmed it. I shall therfore as longe as I lyue remembre thys bitternes of my lyfe.
38:16	O Lorde men maye lyue beyond theyr yeares, and I wyll declare to all men: that euen in those yeres I haue a ioyfull lyfe, and that it was thou that causedest me to sleape and agayne thou hast geuen lyfe to me.
38:17	Beholde bytter as gall was my pensyuenesse, so sore longed I for helth. And it was thy pleasure to deliuer my lyfe, from the fylthye pytt, for thou it is (O Lorde) that hast cast all my synnes behynde thy backe.
38:18	For hell prayseth not the, death doth not magnifye the. They that go downe into the graue prayse not thy trueth:
38:19	but the lyuinge, yee, the lyuing a knowledge the, lyke as I do thys daye. The father telleth hys chyldren of thy faythfulnesse.
38:20	To heale me it is the Lordes worcke, and we wyll synge my songes in thy house, all the dayes of oure lyfe.
38:21	And Esaye sayde: take a playster of fygges, and laye it vpon the sore, so shall it be whole.
38:22	Then sayd Hezekia: O what a great miracle is this, that I shall go vp into the house of the Lorde?
