Isaiah 38:17-19

17Lo, for my own welfare I had great bitterness; It is You who has 12kept my soul from the pit of 3nothingness, For You have 4cast all my sins behind Your back.18For 5Sheol cannot thank You, Death cannot praise You; Those who go down 6to the pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.19It is the 7living who give thanks to You, as I do today; A 8father tells his sons about Your faithfulness.
