Isaiah 38:14-19

Isaiah 38:14-19 CSB

I chirp like a swallow or a crane; I moan like a dove.  My eyes grow weak looking upward. Lord, I am oppressed; support me.  What can I say? He has spoken to me, and he himself has done it. I walk along slowly all my years  because of the bitterness of my soul.  Lord, by such things people live,  and in every one of them my spirit finds life; you have restored me to health  and let me live.  Indeed, it was for my own well-being that I had such intense bitterness;  but your love has delivered me from the Pit of destruction,  for you have thrown all my sins behind your back.  For Sheol cannot thank you; Death cannot praise you.  Those who go down to the Pit cannot hope for your faithfulness. The living, only the living can thank you, as I do today; a father will make your faithfulness known to children.
