Isa. 38:9‑22• 9The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:
 10I 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.
 11I 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.
 12Mine 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.
 13I 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.
 14Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail with looking upward: O Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me.
 15What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.
 16O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.
 17Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
 18For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
 19The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
 20The Lord was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
 21For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover.
