Isaiah 38:16-18
Common English Bible
16 The Lord Most High is the one who gives life to every heart,
who gives life to the spirit![a]
17 Look, he indeed exchanged my bitterness for wholeness.[b]
You yourself have spared[c] my whole being
from the pit of destruction,
because you have cast all my sins
behind your back.
18 The underworld[d] can’t thank you,
nor can death[e] praise you;
those who go down to the pit
can’t hope for your faithfulness.
