Isaiah 38:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷ Surely it was for my benefit^(A)
    that I suffered such anguish.^(B)
In your love you kept me
    from the pit^(C) of destruction;
you have put all my sins^(D)
    behind your back.^(E)
18 For the grave^(F) cannot praise you,
    death cannot sing your praise;^(G)
those who go down to the pit^(H)
    cannot hope for your faithfulness.
¹⁹ The living, the living—they praise^(I) you,
    as I am doing today;
parents tell their children^(J)
    about your faithfulness.
