Isaiah 38:17-19
Young's Literal Translation
17 Lo, to peace He changed for me bitterness, And Thou hast delighted in my soul without corruption, For Thou hast cast behind Thy back all my sins.
18 For Sheol doth not confess Thee, Death doth not praise Thee, Those going down to the pit hope not for Thy truth.
19 The living, the living, he doth confess Thee.

Isaiah 38:17-19
New International Version
17 Surely it was for my benefit(A)
that I suffered such anguish.(B)
In your love you kept me
from the pit(C) of destruction;
you have put all my sins(D)
behind your back.(E)
18 For the grave(F) cannot praise you,
death cannot sing your praise;(G)
those who go down to the pit(H)
cannot hope for your faithfulness.
19 The living, the living—they praise(I) you,
as I am doing today;
parents tell their children(J)
about your faithfulness.
