2 Tawarikh 32:24

Hezekiah’s Shortcomings and Accomplishments

32:24 In those days Hezekiah was stricken with a terminal illness. ¹  He prayed to the Lord, who answered him and gave him a sign confirming that he would be healed. ² 

Yesaya 38:7

38:7 Isaiah replied, ³  “This is your sign from the Lord confirming that the Lord will do what he has said:

[32:24]  ¹ tn Heb “was sick to the point of dying.”

[32:24]  ² tn Heb “and he spoke to him and a sign he gave to him.”

[38:7]  ³ tn The words “Isaiah replied” are supplied in the translation for clarification. In the present form of the Hebrew text v. 7 is joined directly to v. 6, but vv. 21-22, if original to Isaiah 38, must be inserted here. See 2 Kgs 20:7-8.
