Isaiah 38:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶ Lord, people live in spite of such things,
and I have the will to live in spite of them.
You give me health and keep me alive.
¹⁷ Now my bitter experience turns into peace.
You have saved me and kept me from the rotting pit.
You have thrown all my sins behind you.
¹⁸ Sheol doesn’t thank you!
Death doesn’t praise you!
Those who go down to the pit cannot expect you to be faithful.
