nsb - 2Chronicles:32:24-33

nsb@2Chronicles:32:24 @ Hezekiah became sick and was about to die. He prayed to Jehovah, who answered him and gave him a miraculous sign.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:25 @ But Hezekiah was conceited. So he did not repay Jehovah for his kindness. Jehovah became angry with him, with Judah, and with Jerusalem.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:26 @ Hezekiah and the people living in Jerusalem humbled themselves when they realized they had become conceited. Thus Jehovah did not vent his anger on them during Hezekiahs time.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:27 @ Hezekiah became richer and was highly honored. He prepared storehouses for himself to hold silver, gold, precious stones, spices, shields, and all kinds of valuables.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:28 @ He built storehouses for the produce of grain and wine and oil; and buildings for all sorts of beasts and flocks.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:29 @ He made towns for himself. He gathered much property in flocks and herds: for God had given him great wealth.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:30 @ It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. Hezekiah did well in everything he tried.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:31 @ When the leaders of Babylon sent ambassadors to ask him about the miraculous sign that had happened in the land, God left him. God did this to test him, to find out everything that was in Hezekiahs heart.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:32 @ Everything else about Hezekiah, including his devotion to God, is written in the vision of the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, and in the records of the kings of Judah and Israel.

nsb@2Chronicles:32:33 @ Hezekiah slept in death with his ancestors. He was buried in the upper tombs of Davids descendants. When Hezekiah died, all of Judah and the people in Jerusalem honored him. His son Manasseh succeeded him as king.
