Hezekiah's Pride and Achievements
24
1In those days Hezekiah became sick and was at the point of death, and he prayed to the LORD, and he answered him and gave him a sign.
25
But Hezekiah 2did not make return according to the benefit done to him, for 3his heart was proud. Therefore 4wrath came upon him and Judah and Jerusalem.
26
But Hezekiah 5humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD did not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
27
And Hezekiah had very great riches and honor, and he made for himself treasuries for silver, for gold, for precious stones, for spices, for shields, and for all kinds of 6costly vessels;
28
storehouses also for the yield of grain, wine, and oil; and stalls for all kinds of cattle, and sheepfolds.
29
He likewise provided cities for himself, and flocks and herds in abundance, for God had given him very great possessions.
30
This same Hezekiah 7closed the upper outlet of the waters of 8Gihon and directed them down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
31
And so in the matter of the envoys of the princes of Babylon, 9who had been sent to him to inquire about 10the sign that had been done in the land, God left him to himself, 11in order to test him and to know all that was in his heart.
32
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah and his good deeds, behold, they are written 12in the vision of Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, 13in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
33
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the 14upper part of the tombs of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honor at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
