Isaiah 38:9
<< Isaiah 38:9 >>
A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah after his illness and recovery: (NASB ©1995)

Isaiah 38:8 "Behold, I will cause the shadow on the stairway, which has gone down with the sun on the stairway of Ahaz, to go back ten steps." So the sun's shadow went back ten steps on the stairway on which it had gone down.

Isaiah 38:10 I said, "In the middle of my life I am to enter the gates of Sheol; I am to be deprived of the rest of my years." (NASB ©1995)


The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:

writing Isa 12:1 Ex 15:1 Jud 5:1 1Sa 2:1-10 Ps 18:1 30:11,12 107:17-22 116:1-4 118:18,19 Jon 2:1-9

he had De 32:39 1Sa 2:6 Job 5:18 Ho 6:1,2

We have here Hezekiah's thanksgiving song, which he penned by Divine direction, after his recovery. He might have used some of the Psalms of David his father, as he had appointed the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, but the occasion here was extraordinary. His heart being full of devout affections, he would not confine himself to the compositions he had, though of Divine inspiration, but offered up his praises in his own words. The Lord put a new song into his mouth. He put his thanksgiving into writing, that he might review it himself afterwards for the reviving of the good impressions made upon him by the providential interference, and that it might be recommended to others also for their use upon the like occasion. 2Ch 29:30
