¹³ If I look for Sheol as my house; If I have spread my couch in the darkness;

¹³ For now should I have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest,

²¹ Before I go whence I shall not return, `Even' to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;

²² The land dark as midnight, `The land' of the shadow of death, without any order, And where the light is as midnight.

¹⁴ If a man die, shall he live `again'? All the days of my warfare would I wait, Till my release should come.

¹ My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, The grave is `ready' for me.

²³ For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, And to the house appointed for all living.

¹⁴ Wait for Jehovah: Be strong, and let thy heart take courage; Yea, wait thou for Jehovah. Psalm 28 `A Psalm' of David.

⁸ If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou art there.

² He entereth into peace; they rest in their beds, each one that walketh in his uprightness.

²⁵ Jehovah is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.

²⁶ It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Jehovah.
