¹⁵ Because you have said, “We have made a ^(A)covenant with death,
And with ^[a]Sheol we have made a ^[b]pact.
^(B)The ^[c]gushing flood will not reach us when it passes by,
Because we have made ^(C)falsehood our refuge and we have ^(D)concealed ourselves with deception.”

¹⁸ Your ^(A)covenant with death will be ^[a](B)canceled,
And your pact with Sheol will not stand;
When the ^(C)[b]gushing flood passes through,
Then you will become its ^(D)trampling ground.
