2 Kings20:19
Good is the word of the Lord - He has spoken right, I have done foolishly. I submit to his judgments.
Is it not good if peace and truth be in my days? - I believe Hezekiah inquires whether there shall be peace and truth in his days. And the question seems to be rather of an interested nature. He does not appear to deplore the calamities that were coming on the land, provided peace and truth might prevail in his days.
