1那时希西家病得要死，亚摩斯的儿子先知以赛亚去见他，对他说：“耶和华如此说：你当与你的家，因为你必死不能活了。”In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz came to him and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Put your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’”
2希西家就转脸朝墙，祷告耶和华说：Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,
3“耶和华啊，求你记念我在你面前怎样存完全的心，按诚实行事，又做你眼中所看为善的。”希西家就痛哭了。saying, “Please, O LORD, remember how I have walked before You faithfully and with wholehearted devotion; I have done what is good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4耶和华的话临到以赛亚说：And the word of the LORD came to Isaiah, saying,
5“你去告诉希西家说，耶和华—你祖大卫的 神如此说：我听见了你的祷告，看见了你的眼泪。我必加增你十五年的寿数；“Go and tell Hezekiah that this is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will add fifteen years to your life.
6并且我要救你和这城脱离亚述王的手，也要保护这城。And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city.
7“我—耶和华必成就我所说的。我先给你一个兆头，This will be a sign to you from the LORD that He will do what He has promised:
8就是叫亚哈斯的，向前进的日影往后退十度。”于是，前进的日影果然在日晷上往后退了十度。I will make the sun’s shadow that falls on the stairway of Ahaz go back ten steps.’” So the sunlight went back the ten steps it had descended.
9犹大王希西家患病已经痊愈，就作诗说：This is a writing by Hezekiah king of Judah after his illness and recovery:
10我说：正在我中年（或译：晌午）之日必进入阴间的门；我余剩的年岁不得享受。I said, “In the prime of my life I must go through the gates of Sheol and be deprived of the remainder of my years.”
11我说：我必不得见耶和华，就是在活人之地不见耶和华；我与世上的居民不再见面。I said, “I will never again see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living; I will no longer look on mankind with those who dwell in this world.
12我的住处被迁去离开我，好像牧人的帐棚一样；我将性命卷起，像织布的卷布一样。耶和华必将我从剪断，从早到晚，他要使我完结。My dwelling has been picked up and removed from me like a shepherd’s tent. I have rolled up my life like a weaver; He cuts me off from the loom; from day until night You make an end of me.
13我使自己安静直到天亮；他像狮子折断我一切的骨头，从早到晚，他要使我完结。I composed myself until the morning. Like a lion He breaks all my bones; from day until night You make an end of me.
14我像燕子呢喃，像白鹤鸣叫，又像鸽子哀鸣；我因仰观，眼睛困倦。耶和华啊，我受欺压，求你为我作保。I chirp like a swallow or crane; I moan like a dove. My eyes grow weak as I look upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be my security.”
15我可说什么呢？他应许我的，也给我成就了。我因心里的苦楚，在一生的年日必悄悄而行。What can I say? He has spoken to me, and He Himself has done this. I will walk slowly all my years because of the anguish of my soul.
16主啊，人得存活乃在乎此。我灵存活也全在此。所以求你使我痊愈，仍然存活。O Lord, by such things men live, and in all of them my spirit finds life. You have restored me to health and have let me live.
17看哪，我受大苦，本为使我得平安；你因爱我的灵魂（或译：生命）便救我脱离败坏的坑，因为你将我一切的罪扔在你的背后。Surely for my own welfare I had such great anguish; but Your love has delivered me from the pit of oblivion, for You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
18原来，阴间不能称谢你，死亡不能颂扬你；下坑的人不能盼望你的诚实。For Sheol cannot thank You; Death cannot praise You. Those who descend to the Pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.
19只有活人，活人必称谢你，像我今日称谢你一样。为父的，必使儿女知道你的诚实。The living, only the living, can thank You, as I do today; fathers will tell their children about Your faithfulness.
20耶和华肯救我，所以，我们要一生一世在耶和华殿中用丝弦的乐器唱我的诗歌。The LORD will save me; we will play songs on stringed instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the LORD.
21以赛亚说：“当取一块来，贴在疮上，王必痊愈。”Now Isaiah had said, “Prepare a lump of pressed figs and apply it to the boil, and he will recover.”
22希西家问说：“我能上耶和华的殿，有什么兆头呢？”And Hezekiah had asked, “What will be the sign that I will go up to the house of the LORD?”
