2 Chronicles 32:25

The Rest Of Hezekiah's Reign

²⁴ Hezekiah became sick and was about to die. He prayed to Jehovah, who answered him and gave him a miraculous sign. ²⁵ But Hezekiah gave no return for the benefit he received, because his heart was proud; therefore wrath came on him and on Judah and Jerusalem. 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 Hezekiah's time.
