Isaiah 38:9-22
The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and had recovered of his sickness.I said,“ In the middle of my life I go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years.”I said,“ I won’t see Yah, Yah in the land of the living. I will see man no more with the inhabitants of the world.My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me like a shepherd’s tent. I have rolled up my life like a weaver. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night you will make an end of me.I waited patiently until morning. He breaks all my bones like a lion. From day even to night you will make an end of me.I chattered like a swallow or a crane. I moaned like a dove. My eyes weaken looking upward. Lord, I am oppressed. Be my security.”What will I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I will walk carefully all my years because of the anguish of my soul.Lord, men live by these things; and my spirit finds life in all of them: you restore me, and cause me to live.Behold, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.For Sheol can’t praise you. Death can’t celebrate you. Those who go down into the pit can’t hope for your truth.The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do today. The father shall make known your truth to the children.Yahweh will save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in Yahweh’s house.Now Isaiah had said,“ Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a poultice on the boil, and he shall recover.”Hezekiah also had said,“ What is the sign that I will go up to Yahweh’s house?”

1 Samuel 25 33-1 Samuel 25 36
Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, who have kept me today from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.For indeed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from harming you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”So David received from her hand that which she had brought him. Then he said to her,“ Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request.”Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.

Therefore the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.
