Psalm 115:17

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition 2021

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

See the chapter Copy

For in death there is no remembrance of you; in Sheol who can give you praise?

Do not let me be put to shame, O Lord, for I call on you; let the wicked be put to shame; let them go dumbfounded to Sheol.

“What profit is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness?

He will guard the feet of his faithful ones, but the wicked will perish in darkness, for not by might does one prevail.

I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping.
