38:16 O sovereign master, your decrees can give men life;
may years of life be restored to me.
Restore my health
38:9 This is the prayer of King Hezekiah of Judah when he was sick and then recovered from his illness:
57:15 For this is what the high and exalted one says,
the one who rules
“I dwell in an exalted and holy place,
but also with the discouraged and humiliated,
in order to cheer up the humiliated
and to encourage the discouraged.
26:14 The dead do not come back to life,
the spirits of the dead do not rise.
That is because
you wiped out all memory of them.
26:19
your corpses will rise up.
Wake up and shout joyfully, you who live in the ground!
For you will grow like plants drenched with the morning dew,
and the earth will bring forth its dead spirits.
55:3 Pay attention and come to me!
Listen, so you can live!
Then I will make an unconditional covenantal promise to
just like the reliable covenantal promises I made to David.
38:1 In those days Hezekiah was stricken with a terminal illness.
