16 |My Lord is against them, yet they live, and among all of them who live is his spirit. Now you have restored me to health, so let me live! 17 Yes, it was for my own good that I suffered extreme anguish. But in love you have held back my life from the Pit in which it has been confined; you have tossed all my sins behind your back. 18 For Sheol cannot thank you, death cannot sing your praise; and those who go down to the Pit cannot hope for your faithfulness. 19 The living—yes the living—they thank you, just as I am doing today; fathers will tell their children about your faithfulness. 20 The LORD will save me, and we will play my music on strings all the days of our lives in the LORD's Temple. 21 Now Isaiah had said, |Let them prepare a poultice of figs and apply it to the boil, so that he may recover.| 22 Hezekiah also had asked, |What will be the sign for me to go up to the LORD's Temple?| Isaiah 38:16-22, Intl.
