25 “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild(A) Jerusalem until the Anointed One,[a](B) the ruler,(C) comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.(D) 26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death(E) and will have nothing.[b] The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood:(F) War will continue until the end, and desolations(G) have been decreed.(H) 27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’[c] In the middle of the ‘seven’[d] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple[e] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed(I) is poured out on him.[f]”[g]

Isaiah 38:5-20
New International Version
5 “Go and tell Hezekiah, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your father David,(A) says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears;(B) I will add fifteen years(C) to your life. 6 And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend(D) this city.
7 “‘This is the Lord’s sign(E) to you that the Lord will do what he has promised: 8 I will make the shadow cast by the sun go back the ten steps it has gone down on the stairway of Ahaz.’” So the sunlight went back the ten steps it had gone down.(F)
9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah after his illness and recovery:
10 I said, “In the prime of my life(G)
must I go through the gates of death(H)
and be robbed of the rest of my years?(I)”
11 I said, “I will not again see the Lord himself(J)
in the land of the living;(K)
no longer will I look on my fellow man,
or be with those who now dwell in this world.
12 Like a shepherd’s tent(L) my house
has been pulled down(M) and taken from me.
Like a weaver I have rolled(N) up my life,
and he has cut me off from the loom;(O)
day and night(P) you made an end of me.
13 I waited patiently(Q) till dawn,
but like a lion he broke(R) all my bones;(S)
day and night(T) you made an end of me.
14 I cried like a swift or thrush,
I moaned like a mourning dove.(U)
My eyes grew weak(V) as I looked to the heavens.
I am being threatened; Lord, come to my aid!”(W)
15 But what can I say?(X)
He has spoken to me, and he himself has done this.(Y)
I will walk humbly(Z) all my years
because of this anguish of my soul.(AA)
16 Lord, by such things people live;
and my spirit finds life in them too.
You restored me to health
and let me live.(AB)
17 Surely it was for my benefit(AC)
that I suffered such anguish.(AD)
In your love you kept me
from the pit(AE) of destruction;
you have put all my sins(AF)
behind your back.(AG)
18 For the grave(AH) cannot praise you,
death cannot sing your praise;(AI)
those who go down to the pit(AJ)
cannot hope for your faithfulness.
19 The living, the living—they praise(AK) you,
as I am doing today;
parents tell their children(AL)
about your faithfulness.
Isaiah 38:5-20
King James Version
Isaiah 38:5-20
King James Version
5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.
7 And this shall be a sign unto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken;
8 Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:
10 I said in the cutting off of my days, I shall go to the gates of the grave: I am deprived of the residue of my years.
11 I said, I shall not see the Lord, even the Lord, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
12 Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
13 I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
14 Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail with looking upward: O Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me.
15 What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.
16 O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.
17 Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
18 For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
20 The Lord was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
