¹³ It devours patches of his skin;
The firstborn of death devours his ^[a]limbs.

³⁰ The firstborn of the poor will feed,
And the needy will lie down in safety;
I will kill your roots with famine,
And it will slay your remnant.

⁶ I went down to the ^[a]moorings of the mountains;
The earth with its bars closed behind me forever;
Yet You have brought up my ^(A)life from the pit,
O Lord, my God.

¹⁶ Will they go down ^(A)to the gates of ^[a]Sheol?
Shall we have ^(B)rest together in the dust?”
