Isaiah 38:4. Then the word of the LORD* came to Isaiah saying, 5. Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD*, the God of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears. Behold, I shall add fifteen years to your days. 6. And I shall deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria and I shall defend this city. 7. And this will be a sign to you from the LORD*, that the LORD* will do this thing that He has spoken; 8. Behold, I shall again bring the shadow of the degrees, which has gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it had gone down. (2 Ki. 20:8,9)
