3 'I beg you, O Lord, I beseech you, remember how I have walked before you in truth, and with a perfect heart, and how I have done what is pleasing before you.' And then Hezekiah wept with a great weeping.
4 And before Isaiah departed from the middle part of the atrium, the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
5 'Return and tell Hezekiah, the leader of my people: Thus says the Lord, the God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, and I have seen your tears. And behold, I have healed you. On the third day, you shall ascend to the temple of the Lord.
6 And I will add fifteen years to your days. Then too, I will free you and this city from the hand of the king of the Assyrians. And I will protect this city for my own sake, and for the sake of my servant David.'
7 And Isaiah said, 'Bring me a mass of figs.' And when they had brought it, and they had placed it on his sore, he was healed.
