Psalm 6:5

Modern King James Version

For in death there is no memory of You; in the grave who shall give You thanks?

See the chapter Copy

The dead do not praise Jehovah, nor do any who go down into silence.

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for there is no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave where you go.

What profit is in my blood, in going down to the pit? Shall the dust praise You? Shall it tell of Your truth?

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

I must work the works of Him who sent Me, while it is day. Night comes when no man can work.

Return, O Jehovah! How long? And give pity to Your servants.

Then I called on the name of Jehovah; O Jehovah, I beseech You, deliver my soul.
