Psalm 30:9

American Standard Version (1901)

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

See the chapter Copy

For in death there is no remembrance of thee: In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?

For Sheol cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: They that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, whither thou goest.

I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of Jehovah.

I cried unto him with my mouth, And he was extolled with my tongue.
