²¹When Hezekiah was sick, I had said, “Press some figs together. Spread them on a piece of cloth. Apply them to Hezekiah’s boil. Then he’ll get well again.”

²²At that time Hezekiah had asked me, “What will the miraculous sign be to prove I’ll go up to the Lord’s temple?” That’s when the Lord had made the shadow go back ten steps.
