Ang Pagmasakit ni Hezekia(A)

20 Sadto nga tion, nagmasakit si Hezekia kag daw mapatay na siya. Nagkadto sa iya si Propeta Isaias nga anak ni Amoz kag nagsiling, “Nagasiling ang Ginoo nga himuon mo na ang nagakadapat mo nga himuon kay indi ka na mag-ayo kundi mapatay ka.” Pagkabati sini ni Hezekia, nag-atubang siya sa dingding kag nagpangamuyo sa Ginoo. Siling niya, “Ginoo, dumduma kon paano ako nagkabuhi nga matutom sa imo kag nag-alagad sing tinagipusuon, kag kon paano ako naghimo sing maayo sa imo panulok.” Kag naghilibion siya sing tudo.

Sa wala pa makahalin si Isaias sa tunga nga lagwerta sang palasyo, nagsiling ang Ginoo sa iya, “Magbalik ka kay Hezekia, nga pangulo sang akon katawhan, kag ihambal ini: ‘Amo ini ang ginasiling sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang imo katigulangan nga si David: Nabatian ko ang imo pangamuyo kag nakita ko ang imo mga luha. Ayuhon ko ikaw. Sa ikatatlo nga adlaw sugod subong makabangon ka na, kag magakadto ka sa templo sang Ginoo. Dugangan ko pa sang 15 ka tuig ang imo kabuhi. Luwason ko ikaw kag ang ini nga siyudad sa kamot sang hari sang Asiria. Protektaran ko ini nga siyudad para sa akon kadungganan kag tungod kay David nga akon alagad.’ ”

Ginsilingan ni Isaias ang mga suluguon ni Hezekia nga hampulan nila ang iya hubag sang gindunot nga higos. Gintuman nila ini, kag nag-ayo siya.

Sang wala pa mag-ayo si Hezekia, nagpamangkot siya kay Isaias, “Ano bala ang tanda nga magapamatuod nga magaayo ako kag makakadto sa templo sang Ginoo sa ikatatlo nga adlaw halin subong?” Nagsabat si Isaias, “Amo ini ang tanda nga ihatag sang Ginoo sa pagpamatuod nga tumanon niya ining iya promisa. Magpili ka sa sining duha: magaabanse sing napulo ka gutlo ang landong sang adlaw sa orasan[a] ukon magaisol sing napulo ka gutlo?” 10 Nagsabat si Hezekia, “Mas mahapos mag-abanse sing napulo ka gutlo ang landong. Paisula na lang ini sing napulo ka gutlo!” 11 Gani nagpangamuyo si Propeta Isaias sa Ginoo, kag ginpaisol sang Ginoo sing napulo ka gutlo ang landong sang adlaw sa orasan nga ginpahimo ni Ahaz.

Hezekiah’s Illness(A)

20 In those days Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to him and said, “This is what the Lord says: Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not recover.”

Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, “Remember,(B) Lord, how I have walked(C) before you faithfully(D) and with wholehearted devotion and have done what is good in your eyes.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

Before Isaiah had left the middle court, the word of the Lord came to him: “Go back and tell Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your father David, says: I have heard(E) your prayer and seen your tears;(F) I will heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the temple of the Lord. I will add fifteen years to your life. And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend(G) this city for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.’”

Then Isaiah said, “Prepare a poultice of figs.” They did so and applied it to the boil,(H) and he recovered.

Hezekiah had asked Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the Lord will heal me and that I will go up to the temple of the Lord on the third day from now?”

Isaiah answered, “This is the Lord’s sign(I) to you that the Lord will do what he has promised: Shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or shall it go back ten steps?”

10 “It is a simple(J) matter for the shadow to go forward ten steps,” said Hezekiah. “Rather, have it go back ten steps.”

11 Then the prophet Isaiah called on the Lord, and the Lord made the shadow go back(K) the ten steps it had gone down on the stairway of Ahaz.

20 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.

Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord, saying,

I beseech thee, O Lord, remember now 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.

And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the Lord came to him, saying,

Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the Lord.

And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the Lord will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the Lord the third day?

And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the Lord, that the Lord will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

10 And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

11 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the Lord: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.

Ang Pagmasakit ni Hezekia(A)

24 Sadto nga tion nagmasakit si Hezekia kag daw mapatay na siya. Nagpangamuyo siya sa Ginoo, kag ginhatagan siya sang Ginoo sang isa ka tanda nga magaayo siya. 25 Pero nagpabugal si Hezekia kag ginbaliwala niya ang kaayo nga ginpakita sang Ginoo sa iya. Gani naakig ang Ginoo sa iya kag sa mga taga-Juda kag taga-Jerusalem. 26 Dayon naghinulsol si Hezekia sa iya nga pagpabugal, kag amo man ang katawhan sang Jerusalem. Gani wala ginpaagom sang Ginoo ang iya kaakig sa ila samtang buhi pa si Hezekia.

Hezekiah’s Pride, Success and Death(A)

24 In those days Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death. He prayed to the Lord, who answered him and gave him a miraculous sign.(B) 25 But Hezekiah’s heart was proud(C) and he did not respond to the kindness shown him; therefore the Lord’s wrath(D) was on him and on Judah and Jerusalem. 26 Then Hezekiah repented(E) of the pride of his heart, as did the people of Jerusalem; therefore the Lord’s wrath did not come on them during the days of Hezekiah.(F)

24 In those days Hezekiah was sick to the death, and prayed unto the Lord: and he spake unto him, and he gave him a sign.

25 But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.

26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
