וַיֹּאמַ֗ר אָנָּ֤ה יְהוָה֙ זְכָר־נָ֞א אֵ֣ת אֲשֶׁ֧ר הִתְהַלַּ֣כְתִּי לְפָנֶ֗יךָ בֶּֽאֱמֶת֙ וּבְלֵ֣ב שָׁלֵ֔ם וְהַטּ֥וֹב בְּעֵינֶ֖יךָ עָשִׂ֑יתִי וַיֵּ֥בְךְּ חִזְקִיָּ֖הוּ בְּכִ֥י גָדֽוֹל׃ (ס)
說：«永恆者啊，我懇求你，求你記念我在你面前怎樣以誠實和完全的心行事，又做你眼中看為善的事。»希西家就放聲大哭。

R. Levi declared : [He prayed] in connection with the "wall," saying before Him, "Lord of the Universe, if Thou didst bring back to life the child of the Shunammite woman who but made 'a little chamber on the roof,' how much more so [shouldest Thou spare my life], seeing that my forefather Solomon overlaid the whole Temple with silver and gold!" "Remember now, O Lord, I beseech Thee, how I have walked before Thee in truth and with a whole heart, and have done that which is good in Thy sight" (Is. xxxviii. 3). What means "I have done that which is good in Thy sight"?

Hezekiah referred to his own merit; as it is written, "Remember now, O Lord, I beseech Thee, how I have walked before Thee" (Is. xxxviii. 3), and the merit of others was referred to ; as it is said, "For I will defend this city, for Mine own sake, and for My servant David's sake" (ibid, xxxvii. 35). This agrees with the statement of R. Joshua b. Levi who said : What means that which is written, "Behold, for my peace I had great bitterness" (Is. xxxviii. 17)? Even when the Holy One, blessed be He, sent him peace, it was bitter for him.
