Isaiah 38:1-3

New Catholic Bible

Chapter 38

Hezekiah’s Sickness and Recovery. ¹ During that period, Hezekiah fell ill and was at the point of death. The prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, came to him and said, “Thus says the Lord: Put your affairs in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.”

² Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, ³ “I beg you, O Lord, to remember how I have conducted myself faithfully in your presence and have always done what was pleasing to you.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
