“What gain is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Would dust praise You? Would it declare Your truth?
Let me not die, but live, And declare the works of Yah.
For in death there is no remembrance of You; Who gives You thanks in the grave?
I called to Him with my mouth, And praise was in my tongue.
All that your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.
“For the grave does not thank You, nor death praise You; those who go down to the pit do not watch for Your truth.
