Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

15“What shall I say?
For He has spoken to me, and He Himself has done it;
I will walk quietly all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.
16“Lord, by these things people live,
And in all these is the life of my spirit;
Restore me to health and let me live!
17“Behold, for my own welfare I had great bitterness;
But You have kept my soul from the pit of nothingness,
For You have hurled all my sins behind Your back.
18“For Sheol cannot thank You,
Death cannot praise You;
Those who go down to the pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.
19“It is the living who give thanks to You, as I do today;
A father tells his sons about Your faithfulness.
20“The Lord is certain to save me;
So we will play my songs on stringed instruments
All the days of our life at the house of the Lord.”
