Psalm 107:18

New English Translation

They lost their appetite for all food, and they drew near the gates of death.

See the chapter Copy

Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Have you seen the gates of deepest darkness?

For my life is filled with troubles and I am ready to enter Sheol.

when they prayed: “Have mercy on me, Lord! See how I am oppressed by those who hate me, O one who can snatch me away from the gates of death!

“I thought, ‘In the middle of my life I must walk through the gates of Sheol, I am deprived of the rest of my years.’
