Isaiah 38:17-20
English Standard Version
Isaiah 38:17-20
English Standard Version
17 (A)Behold, it was for my welfare
that I had great bitterness;
(B)but in love you have delivered my life
from the pit of destruction,
(C)for you have cast all my sins
behind your back.
18 (D)For Sheol does not thank you;
death does not praise you;
those who go down to the pit do not hope
for your faithfulness.
19 The living, the living, he thanks you,
as I do this day;
(E)the father makes known to the children
your faithfulness.
20 The Lord will save me,
and we will play my music on stringed instruments
all the days of our lives,
(F)at the house of the Lord.
