Berean Standard Bible
1Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, ἐμαλακίσθη Ἐζεκίας ἕως θανάτου· καὶ ἦλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἡσαΐας υἱὸς Ἀμὼς ὁ προφήτης, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, τάδε λέγει Κύριος, τάξαι περὶ τοῦ οἴκου σου, ἀποθνήσκεις γὰρ σὺ, καὶ οὐ ζήσῃ.
1In 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.’”
2Καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν Ἐζεκίας τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸν τεῖχον, καὶ προσηύξατο πρὸς Κύριον,
2Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,
3λέγων, μνήσθητι Κύριε, ὡς ἐπορεύθην ἐνώπιόν σου μετὰ ἀληθείας, ἐν καρδίᾳ ἀληθινῇ, καὶ τὰ ἀρεστὰ ἐνώπιόν σου ἐποίησα· καὶ ἔκλαυσεν Ἐζεκίας κλαυθμῷ μεγάλῳ.
3saying, “Please, O LORD, remember how I have walked before You faithfully and with wholehearted devotion; I have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ἡσαΐαν, λέγων,
4And the word of the LORD came to Isaiah, saying,
5πορεύθητι, καὶ εἰπὸν Ἐζεκίᾳ, τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρός σου, ἤκουσα τῆς προσευχῆς σου, καὶ εἶδον τὰ δάκρυά σου· ἰδοὺ προστίθημι πρὸς τὸν χρόνον σου δεκαπέντε ἔτη,
5“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.
6καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων ῥύσομαί σε καὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην, καὶ ὑπερασπιῶ ὑπὲρ τῆς πόλεως ταύτης.
6And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city.
7Τοῦτο δέ σοι τὸ σημεῖον παρὰ Κυρίου, ὅτι ποιήσει ὁ Θεὸς τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο·
7This will be a sign to you from the LORD that He will do what He has promised:
8Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ στρέφω τὴν σκιὰν τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν οὓς κατέβη τοὺς δέκα ἀναβαθμοὺς τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρός σου ὁ ἥλιος, ἀποστρέψω τὸν ἥλιον τοὺς δέκα ἀναβαθμούς· καὶ ἀνέβη ὁ ἥλιος τοὺς δέκα ἀναβαθμοὺς, οὓς κατέβη ἡ σκιά.
8I 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.
9ΠΡΟΣΕΥΧΗ ἘΖΕΚΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΤΗΣ ἸΟΥΔΑΙΑΣ, ἩΝΙΚΑ ἘΜΑΛΑΚΙΣΘΗ, ΚΑΙ ἈΝΕΣΤΗ ἘΚ ΤΗΣ ΜΑΛΑΚΙΑΣ ΑΥΤΟΥ.
9This is a writing by Hezekiah king of Judah after his illness and recovery:
10Ἐγὼ εἶπα ἐν τῷ ὕψει τῶν ἡμερῶν μου, πορεύσομαι ἐν πύλαις ἅδου, καταλείψω τὰ ἔτη τὰ ἐπίλοιπα.
10I said, “In the prime of my life I must go through the gates of Sheol and be deprived of the remainder of my years.”
11Εἶπα, οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ ἴδω τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπὶ γῆς ζώντων, οὐκέτι μὴ ἴδω τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ γῆς, οὐκέτι μὴ ἴδω ἄνθρωπον.
11I 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.
12Ἐξέλιπεν ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας μου, κατέλιπον τὸ ἐπίλοιπον τῆς ζωῆς μου, ἐξῆλθε καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ὥσπερ ὁ σκηνὴν καταλύων πήξας· ὡς ἱστὸς τὸ πνεῦμά μου παρʼ ἐμοὶ ἐγένετο, ἐρίθου ἐγγιζούσης ἐκτεμεῖν.
12My 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.
13Ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ παρεδόθην ἕως πρωῒ ὡς λέοντι, οὕτως συνέτριψε πάντα τὰ ὀστᾶ μου· ἀπὸ γὰρ τῆς ἡμέρας ἕως νυκτὸς παρεδόθην.
13I composed myself until the morning. Like a lion He breaks all my bones; from day until night You make an end of me.
14Ὡς χελιδὼν, οὕτω φωνήσω, καὶ ὡς περιστερὰ, οὕτω μελετῶ· ἐξέλιπον γάρ μου οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ τοῦ βλέπειν εἰς τὸ ὕψος τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πρὸς τὸν Κύριον, ὃς ἐξείλατό με,
14I 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.”
15καὶ ἀφείλατό μου τὴν ὀδύνην τῆς ψυχῆς.
15What 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.
16Κύριε, περὶ αὐτῆς γὰρ ἀνηγγέλη σοι, καὶ ἐξήγειράς μου τὴν πνοὴν, καὶ παρακληθεὶς ἔζησα.
16O 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.
17Εἵλου γάρ μου τὴν ψυχὴν, ἴνα μὴ ἀπόληται, καὶ ἀπέῤῥιψας ὀπίσω μου πάσας τὰς ἁμαρτίας.
17Surely 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.
18Οὐ γὰρ οἱ ἐν ᾅδου αἰνέσουσί σε, οὐδὲ οἱ ἀποθανόντες εὐλογήσουσί σε, οὐδὲ ἐλπιοῦσιν οἱ ἐν ᾄδου τὴν ἐλεημοσύνην σου.
18For Sheol cannot thank You; Death cannot praise You. Those who descend to the Pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.
19Οἱ ζῶντες εὐλογήσουσί σε ὃν τρόπον κᾀγώ· ἀπὸ γὰρ τῆς σήμερον παιδία ποιήσω, ἅ ἀναγγελοῦσι τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου
19The living, only the living, can thank You, as I do today; fathers will tell their children about Your faithfulness.
20Θεὲ τῆς σωτηρίας μου, καὶ οὐ παύσομαι εὐλογῶν σε μετὰ ψαλτηρίου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς μου, κατέναντι τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ Θεοῦ.
20The LORD will save me; we will play songs on stringed instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the LORD.
21Καὶ εἶπεν Ἡσαΐας πρὸς Ἐζεκίαν, λάβε παλάθην ἐκ σύκων, καὶ τρίψον, καὶ κατάπλασαι, καὶ ὑγιὴς ἔσῃ.
21Now Isaiah had said, “Prepare a lump of pressed figs and apply it to the boil, and he will recover.”
22Καὶ εἶπεν Ἐζεκίας, τοῦτο σημεῖον πρὸς Ἐζεκίαν, ὅτι ἀναβήσομαι εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ.
22And Hezekiah had asked, “What will be the sign that I will go up to the house of the LORD?”
