3. He said, “Lord, please remember that I have always obeyed you. I have given myself completely to you. I have done what you said was right.” And Hezekiah cried loudly.
4. Then the Lord spoke his word to Isaiah:
5. “Go to Hezekiah and tell him: ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your ancestor David, says: I have heard your prayer. And I have seen your tears. I will add 15 years to your life.
6. I will save you and this city from the king of Assyria. I will defend this city.’”
21. Then Isaiah said, “Make a paste from figs. Put it on Hezekiah’s boil. Then he will get well.”
22. Hezekiah asked Isaiah, “What will be the sign? What will show that I will go up to the Temple of the Lord?”
7. Isaiah said, “The Lord will do what he says. This is the sign from the Lord to show you:
8. The sun has made a shadow go down the stairway of Ahaz. I will make it go back ten steps.” So the shadow made by the sun went back up the ten steps it had gone down.
