37:3052 “This will be your reminder that I have spoken the truth:53 This year you will eat what grows wild,54 and next year55 what grows on its own. But the year after that56 you will plant seed and harvest crops; you will plant vines and consume their produce.57
Footnotes
- 52 At this point the word concerning the king of Assyria (vv. 22–29) ends and the Lord again addresses Hezekiah and the people directly (see v. 21).
- 53 Heb “and this is your sign.” In this case the אוֹת (’ot, “sign”) is a future reminder of God’s intervention designated before the actual intervention takes place. For similar “signs” see Exod 3:12 and Isa 7:14–25.
- 54 This refers to crops that grew up on their own (that is, without cultivation) from the seed planted in past years.
- 55 Heb “and in the second year” (so ).
- 56 Heb “in the third year” (so , ).
- 57 The four plural imperatival verb forms in v. 30b are used rhetorically. The Lord commands the people to plant, harvest, etc. to emphasize the certainty of restored peace and prosperity.

Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Here is the proof that what I say is true:
“This year you will eat only what grows up by itself,
and next year you will eat what springs up from that.
But in the third year you will plant crops and harvest them;
you will tend vineyards and eat their fruit.
