Melachim Bet (II Kings) — Perek 20

Chizkiyahu is miraculously healed from terminal illness and granted 15 more years, but foolishly displays his wealth to Babylonian envoys.

Chizkiyahu falls terminally ill and is told by Yeshayahu that he will die, but his tearful prayers prompt Hashem to grant him fifteen additional years of life. As a miraculous sign, the shadow on the sun dial moves backward ten degrees. Later, Chizkiyahu proudly displays all his royal treasures to envoys from Babylon, leading Yeshayahu to prophesy that everything will one day be carried off to Babylon.

• Chizkiyahu falls ill and Yeshayahu promises fifteen more years
