^5 (A)For in death there is no remembrance of You;
In the grave who will give You thanks?

⁹ “What profit is there in my blood,
When I go down to the pit?
^(A)Will the dust praise You?
Will it declare Your truth?

¹¹ Shall Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave?
Or Your faithfulness in the place of destruction?

^17 (A)The dead do not praise the Lord,
Nor any who go down into silence.
