All his sons and all his daughters sought to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted and said, “No, I shall go down to Sheol to my son, mourning.” Thus his father bewailed him.

But he said, “My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left. If harm should come to him on the journey that you are to make, you would bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.”

If you take this one also from me and harm comes to him, you will bring down my gray hairs in sorrow to Sheol.’

when he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die, and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.

But if the Lord creates something new and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them up, with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall know that these men have despised the Lord.”

So they with all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol; the earth closed over them, and they perished from the midst of the assembly.

For a fire is kindled by my anger and burns to the depths of Sheol; it devours the earth and its increase and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

The Lord kills and brings to life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up.

the cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.

Act, therefore, according to your wisdom, but do not let his gray head go down to Sheol in peace.

Therefore do not hold him guiltless, for you are a wise man; you will know what you ought to do to him, and you must bring his gray head down with blood to Sheol.”

As the cloud fades and vanishes, so those who go down to Sheol do not come up;

It is higher than heaven—what can you do? Deeper than Sheol—what can you know?

O that you would hide me in Sheol, that you would conceal me until your wrath is past, that you would appoint me a set time and remember me!

If I look for Sheol as my house, if I spread my couch in darkness,

Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?”

They spend their days in prosperity, and in peace they go down to Sheol.

Drought and heat snatch away the snow waters; so does Sheol those who have sinned.

Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

For in death there is no remembrance of you; in Sheol who can give you praise?

The wicked shall depart to Sheol, all the nations that forget God.

For you do not give me up to Sheol or let your faithful one see the Pit.

the cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.

O Lord, you brought up my soul from Sheol, restored me to life from among those gone down to the Pit.

Do not let me be put to shame, O Lord, for I call on you; let the wicked be put to shame; let them go dumbfounded to Sheol.
