“In the prime of my life
I shall go to the gates of Sheol;
I am deprived of the remainder of my years.”
“I shall not see1 Yah,
The Lord ain the land of the living;
I shall observe man no more1 among the inhabitants of the world.
Taken from me like a shepherd’s tent;
I have cut off my life like a weaver.
He cuts me off from the loom;
From day until night You make an end of me.
Like a lion,
So He breaks all my bones;
From day until night You make an end of me.
aI mourned like a dove;
My eyes fail from looking upward.
O Lord, I am oppressed;
1Undertake for me!
| << Isaiah 38:10 | Isaiah 38:12 >> |
