Psalm 115:17

King James Version (Oxford) 1769

The dead praise not the LORD, Neither any that go down into silence.

See the chapter Copy

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

Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

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

He will keep the feet of his saints, And the wicked shall be silent in darkness; For by strength shall no man prevail.

I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
