⁵ For the living know that they die, and the dead know not anything, and there is no more to them a reward, for their remembrance hath been forgotten.

¹⁴ Dead -- they live not, Rephaim, they rise not, Therefore Thou hast inspected and dost destroy them, Yea, thou destroyest all their memory.

²¹ Honoured are his sons, and he knoweth not; And they are little, and he attendeth not to them.

¹⁰ And so I have seen the wicked buried, and they went in, even from the Holy Place they go, and they are forgotten in the city whether they had so done. This also `is' vanity.

¹⁶ That there is no remembrance to the wise -- with the fool -- to the age, for that which `is' already, `in' the days that are coming is all forgotten, and how dieth the wise? with the fool!

⁵ For there is not in death Thy memorial, In Sheol, who doth give thanks to Thee?

²⁷ and as it is laid up to men once to die, and after this -- judgment,

¹¹ There is not a remembrance of former `generations'; and also of the latter that are, there is no remembrance of them with those that are at the last.

¹⁶ For Thou `art' our Father, For Abraham hath not known us, And Israel doth not acknowledge us, Thou, O Jehovah, `art' our Father, Our redeemer from the age, `is' Thy name.

² Better to go unto a house of mourning, Than to go unto a house of banqueting, For that is the end of all men, And the living layeth `it' unto his heart.

¹⁵ They are before Jehovah continually, And He cutteth off from earth their memorial.

¹⁰ To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they thank Thee? Selah.

¹¹ Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction?

¹² Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

²³ For I have known To death Thou dost bring me back, And `to' the house appointed for all living.

⁸ The eye of my beholder beholdeth me not. Thine eyes `are' upon me -- and I am not.

⁹ Consumed hath been a cloud, and it goeth, So he who is going down to Sheol cometh not up.

¹⁰ He turneth not again to his house, Nor doth his place discern him again.
