Isaiah 38
1 In those days was Hezekiah sick and near death. Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Set your house in order, for you will die, and not live.'"
in diebus illis aegrotavit Ezechias usque ad mortem et introivit ad eum Isaias filius Amos propheta et dixit ei haec dicit Dominus dispone domui tuae quia morieris tu et non vives
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,
et convertit Ezechias faciem suam ad parietem et oravit ad Dominum
3 and said, "Remember now, the LORD, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight." Hezekiah wept bitterly.
et dixit obsecro Domine memento quaeso quomodo ambulaverim coram te in veritate et in corde perfecto et quod bonum est in oculis tuis fecerim et flevit Ezechias fletu magno
4 Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini ad Isaiam dicens
5 "Go, and tell Hezekiah, 'Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Look, I will add fifteen years to your life.
vade et dic Ezechiae haec dicit Dominus Deus David patris tui audivi orationem tuam vidi lacrimam tuam ecce ego adiciam super dies tuos quindecim annos
6 I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
et de manu regis Assyriorum eruam te et civitatem istam et protegam eam
7 This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has spoken.
hoc autem tibi erit signum a Domino quia faciet Dominus verbum hoc quod locutus est
8 Look, I will cause the shadow on the steps, which has gone down with the sun on the upper steps of Ahaz, to go backward ten steps. So the sun returned ten steps on the sundial on which it had gone down."'"
ecce ego reverti faciam umbram linearum per quas descenderat in horologio Ahaz in sole retrorsum decem lineis et reversus est sol decem lineis per gradus quos descenderat
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and had recovered of his sickness.
scriptura Ezechiae regis Iuda cum aegrotasset et convaluisset de infirmitate sua
10 I said, "In the middle of my life I go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years." (Sheol h7585)
ego dixi in dimidio dierum meorum vadam ad portas inferi quaesivi residuum annorum meorum (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, "I won't see the LORD in the land of the living. I will not look on humankind any longer with the inhabitants of the world.
dixi non videbo Dominum Dominum in terra viventium non aspiciam hominem ultra et habitatorem quievit
12 My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me like a shepherd's tent. I have rolled up, like a weaver, my life. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
generatio mea ablata est et convoluta est a me quasi tabernaculum pastorum praecisa est velut a texente vita mea dum adhuc ordirer succidit me de mane usque ad vesperam finies me
13 I waited patiently until morning. He breaks all my bones like a lion. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
sperabam usque ad mane quasi leo sic contrivit omnia ossa mea de mane usque ad vesperam finies me
14 I chip like a swallow or a thrush. I moan like a dove. My eyes weaken looking upward. LORD, I am oppressed. Be my security."
sicut pullus hirundinis sic clamabo meditabor ut columba adtenuati sunt oculi mei suspicientes in excelsum Domine vim patior sponde pro me
15 What will I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I will walk carefully all my years because of the anguish of my soul.
quid dicam aut quid respondebit mihi cum ipse fecerit recogitabo omnes annos meos in amaritudine animae meae
16 The LORD is against them, but they live, and all of them who live have his spirit. Restore me to health and let me live.
Domine sic vivitur et in talibus vita spiritus mei corripies me et vivificabis me
17 Look, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.
ecce in pace amaritudo mea amarissima tu autem eruisti animam meam ut non periret proiecisti post tergum tuum omnia peccata mea
18 For Sheol can't praise you. And death can't celebrate you. And those who go down into the pit can't hope for your truth. (Sheol h7585)
quia non infernus confitebitur tibi neque mors laudabit te non expectabunt qui descendunt in lacum veritatem tuam (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do this day. The father shall make known your truth to the children.
vivens vivens ipse confitebitur tibi sicut et ego hodie pater filiis notam faciet veritatem tuam
20 The LORD will save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.
Domine salvum me fac et psalmos nostros cantabimus cunctis diebus vitae nostrae in domo Domini
21 Now Isaiah had said, "Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a poultice on the boil, and he shall recover."
et iussit Isaias ut tollerent massam de ficis et cataplasmarent super vulnus et sanaretur
22 Hezekiah also had said, "What is the sign that I will go up to the house of the LORD?"
et dixit Ezechias quod erit signum quia ascendam in domo Domini
