2 Chronicles 32:27-31

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁷ And Hezekiah had exceedingly great riches and honour, and he made himself treasures of silver and of gold and of precious stones and of spices and of shields and of all manner of pleasant vessels,

²⁸ storehouses also for the increase of grain and wine and oil and stalls for all manner of beasts and places for cattle.

²⁹ Moreover, he made himself cities and possessions of sheep and cows in abundance, for God had given him great substance.

³⁰ This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon and brought it straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah was prospered in all that he did.

³¹ However, because of the ambassadors {Heb. scorners} of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to enquire of the wonder that had happened in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart.
