Isaiah 38:18-20

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁸ “Sh’ol cannot thank you, death cannot praise you;
those descending to the pit cannot hope for your truth.
¹⁹ The living, the living — they can thank you,
as I do today;
fathers will make their children know
about your faithfulness.
²⁰ Adonai is ready to save me;
hence we will make our stringed instruments sound
all the days of our life
in the house of Adonai.”
