Isaiah 38:10-12

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁰ I thought that I might die in the middle of my life.
I thought that I would go into the deep hole of death,
    before I had lived all the years of my life.
¹¹ I thought, ‘I will not see the Lord again,
    while I live in this world.
I will no longer see the people who live in the world.
    I will no longer live among them.’
¹² My home here has gone,
    as easily as they pull down a shepherd's tent.
God has cut off my life,
    like a piece of cloth that they have just made.
    They cut it off and they roll it up.
As quickly as day becomes night,
    God brings my life to an end.
