And Hezekiah wept bitterly. 4 Before Isaiah had gone out of the middle courtyard, the word of the LORD came to him: 5 "Go back and tell Hezekiah, the leader of My people: This is what the LORD, the God of your ancestor David, says: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day, you will go up to the house of the LORD. 6 I will add fifteen years to your life. I will rescue you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for My sake and for the sake of My servant David." 7 Then Isaiah said, "Prepare a lump of figs." So they took it and placed it on the boil, and he recovered. 8 Hezekiah asked Isaiah, "What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me and that I will go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?" 9 Isaiah answered, "This is the sign from the LORD to you that He will do what He has promised: Shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or shall it go back ten steps?" 10 Hezekiah answered, "It is an easy thing for the shadow to move forward ten steps; rather, let it go back ten steps." 11 Then the prophet Isaiah called out to the LORD, and He made the shadow go back ten steps on the stairway of Ahaz, the steps it had descended. 12 At that time, Merodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah because he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
