Isaiah 38:9-14

9This is a writing by Hezekiah king of Judah after his illness and recovery:

10I said, “In the prime1 of my lifeI must go through the gates of Sheoland be deprived of the remainder of my years.”11I said, “I will never again see the LORD,even the LORD, in the land of the living;I will no longer look on mankindwith those who dwell in this world.12My dwelling has been picked up and removed from melike a shepherd’s tent.I have rolled up my life like a weaver;He cuts me off from the loom;from day until night You make an end of me.13I composed myself2 until the morning.Like a lion He breaks all my bones;from day until night You make an end of me.14I chirp like a swallow or crane;I moan like a dove.My eyes grow weak as I look upward.O Lord, I am oppressed; be my security.”
