16 O Lord, by these things people live,
    and in all these is the life of my spirit.[a]
    Oh, restore me to health and make me live!
17 Surely it was for my welfare
    that I had great bitterness,
but you have held back[b] my life
    from the pit of destruction,
for you have cast all my sins
    behind your back.(A)
18 For Sheol cannot thank you;
    death cannot praise you;
those who go down to the Pit cannot hope
    for your faithfulness.(B)
19 The living, the living, they thank you,
    as I do this day;
fathers make known to children
    your faithfulness.(C)

20 The Lord will save me,
    and we will sing to stringed instruments[c]
all the days of our lives,
    at the house of the Lord.(D)
