Sheol is naked before Him; Abaddon has no covering.
Sheol and Abaddon are before Adonai— how much more the hearts of people!
If I go up to heaven, You are there, and if I make my bed in Sheol, look, You are there too.
If they should dig down to Sheol, from there My hand will take them. If they should go up to heaven, from there will I bring them down.
Abaddon and Death say, ‘With our ears we have heard a rumor of it.’
No creature is hidden from Him, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
Sheol from below is excited about you, to meet you at your coming! He stirs up the dead spirits for you, even the chief ones of the earth. He makes all the kings of the nations rise up from their thrones.
If I say: “Surely darkness covers me, night keeps light at a distance from me,”
My eye fails from affliction. I call upon You every day, Adonai. I spread out my hands to You.
Out of his mouth go flames, sparks of fire shoot out.
They are higher than the heavens —what can you do? They are deeper than Sheol —what can you know?
They have as king over them the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he has the name Apollyon.
For now I would be lying down and quiet; I would be asleep and at rest
“He who moves mountains, yet they do not know it, who overthrows them in His anger;
For it is a fire that devours to destruction, and uproots all my harvest.
Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?
Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied, and neither are the eyes of man.
He reveals deep and hidden things. He knows what lies in darkness and light dwells with Him.
