Isaiah 38:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 I thought, ‘I will not see the Lord again,
while I live in this world.
I will no longer see the people who live in the world.
I will no longer live among them.’
12 My home here has gone,
as easily as they pull down a shepherd's tent.
God has cut off my life,
like a piece of cloth that they have just made.
They cut it off and they roll it up.
As quickly as day becomes night,
God brings my life to an end.
13 I waited until morning would come.
It seemed like God was breaking all my bones,
like a lion does.
As quickly as day becomes night,
God brings my life to an end.
Isaiah 38:11-13
New International Version
11 I said, “I will not again see the Lord himself(A)
in the land of the living;(B)
no longer will I look on my fellow man,
or be with those who now dwell in this world.
12 Like a shepherd’s tent(C) my house
has been pulled down(D) and taken from me.
Like a weaver I have rolled(E) up my life,
and he has cut me off from the loom;(F)
day and night(G) you made an end of me.
13 I waited patiently(H) till dawn,
but like a lion he broke(I) all my bones;(J)
day and night(K) you made an end of me.
