2. Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto the LORD,
3. And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight. And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4. Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,
5. Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will add unto your days fifteen years.
6. And I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.
7. And this shall be a sign unto you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has spoken;
8. Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which has gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward.
