2 Kings 20:2-6 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

2. Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord,

3. “Please Lord, remember how I have walked before You faithfully and wholeheartedly and have done what pleases You.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

4. Isaiah had not yet gone out of the inner courtyard when the word of the Lord came to him:

5. “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.

6. I will add 15 years to your life. I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for My sake and for the sake of My servant David.’ ”
