Job 17:13-16
13If I hope for 12Sheol as my home, I 3make my bed in the darkness;14If I call to the 4grave, ‘You are my father’; To the 5maggot, ‘my mother and my sister’;15Where then is 6my hope? And who looks at my hope?167Will it go down with me to Sheol? Shall we together 8go down into the dust?”
