Isaiah 38:16-20

Rotherham(i) 16 O My Lord! on those things do men live,––And, altogether in them, is the life of my spirit, When thou hast strengthened me, and made me live. 17 Lo! for well–being, I had bitterness––bitterness,––But, thou, cleaving unto my soul, hast raised me from the pit of corruption, For thou hast cast, behind thy back, all my sins. 18 For, hades, cannot praise thee, Nor, death, celebrate thee,––They who go down to the pit cannot wait for thy faithfulness. 19 The living, the living, he, can praise thee, As I, do this day,––A father, to his children, can make known thy faithfulness. 20 Yahweh, [was willing] to save me,––Therefore, on my stringed instruments, will we play––All the days of our life, By the house of Yahweh.
