16 Lord, by such things people live;
    and my spirit finds life in them too.
You restored me to health
    and let me live.(A)
17 Surely it was for my benefit(B)
    that I suffered such anguish.(C)
In your love you kept me
    from the pit(D) of destruction;
you have put all my sins(E)
    behind your back.(F)
18 For the grave(G) cannot praise you,
    death cannot sing your praise;(H)
those who go down to the pit(I)
    cannot hope for your faithfulness.
19 The living, the living—they praise(J) you,
    as I am doing today;
parents tell their children(K)
    about your faithfulness.

20 The Lord will save me,
    and we will sing(L) with stringed instruments(M)
all the days of our lives(N)
    in the temple(O) of the Lord.

16 O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.

17 Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

18 For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.

19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

20 The Lord was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.

For none of us lives for ourselves alone,(A) and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.(B) For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life(C) so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.(D)

For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
