Isaiah 38:17-19
Revised Standard Version
17 Lo, it was for my welfare
that I had great bitterness;
but thou hast held back[a] my life
from the pit of destruction,
for thou hast cast all my sins
behind thy back.
18 For Sheol cannot thank thee,
death cannot praise thee;
those who go down to the pit cannot hope
for thy faithfulness.
19 The living, the living, he thanks thee,
as I do this day;
the father makes known to the children
thy faithfulness.
