2 Kings 20:10

And Hezekiah answered , It is an easy thing for the shadow to lengthen ten steps . Rather let the shadow go back ten steps .

“It is a simple matter for the shadow to go forward ten steps,” said Hezekiah. “Rather, have it go back ten steps.”

And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees : nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.
