Isaiah 38:18-20
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 38:18-20
Contemporary English Version
18 (A) No one in the world of the dead
can thank you or praise you;
none of those in the deep pit
can hope for you
to show them
how faithful you are.
19 Only the living can thank you,
as I am doing today.
Each generation tells the next
about your faithfulness.[a]
20 You, Lord, will save me,
and every day that we live
we will sing in your temple
to the music
of stringed instruments.
