Isaiah 38:18-20

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁸ Sheol doesn’t thank you!
Death doesn’t praise you!
Those who go down to the pit cannot expect you to be faithful.
¹⁹ Those who are living praise you as I do today.
Fathers make your faithfulness known to their children.
²⁰ The Lord is going to rescue me,
so let us play stringed instruments.
We live our lives in the Lord’s temple.
