Bible. Isaiah
23:037:035 For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and
for my servant David's sake.
23:037:036 Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp
of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand:
and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were
all dead corpses.
23:037:037 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and
returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
23:037:038 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of
Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote
him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia:
and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
23:038:001 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the
prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus
saith the LORD, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die,
and not live.
23:038:002 Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto
the LORD,
23:038:003 And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have
walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have
done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.
23:038:004 Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,
23:038:005 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David
thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears:
behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
23:038:006 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the
king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.
23:038:007 And this shall be a sign unto thee from the LORD, that the
LORD will do this thing that he hath spoken;
23:038:008 Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is
gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So
the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone
down.
23:038:009 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick,
and was recovered of his sickness:
23:038:010 I said in the cutting off of my days, I shall go to the gates
of the grave: I am deprived of the residue of my years.
23:038:011 I said, I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land
of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants
of the world.
23:038:012 Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's
tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off
with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an
end of me.
23:038:013 I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all
my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
