2 Kings 20:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And Isaiah the Prophet called unto the Lord, and he brought again the shadow ten degrees back by the degrees whereby it had gone down in the [a]dial of Ahaz.
12 (A)The same season Berodach-Baladan the son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a [b]present to Hezekiah: for he had heard how that Hezekiah was sick.
13 And Hezekiah heard them, and showed them all his treasure house, to wit, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, and in all his [c]realm, that Hezekiah showed them not.
