Isaiah 38:11-13
International Standard Version
Isaiah 38:11-13
International Standard Version
11 I said, “I won’t see the Lord[a] in the land of the living;
and[b] I’ll no longer observe human beings
among the denizens of the grave.[c]
12 My house has been plucked up and vanishes[d] from me
like a shepherd’s tent;
like a weaver, I’ve taken account of[e] my life,
and he cuts me off from the loom—
day and night you make an end of me.
13 I’ve been swept bare[f] until morning;
just like a lion, he breaks all my bones—
day and night you make an end of me.
