Isaiah 38:10

²⁴I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.

⁹Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,

¹⁸Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.

⁷Oh remember that my life is a breath. My eye will no more see good.

¹¹My days are past. My plans are broken off, as are the thoughts of my heart. ¹²They change the night into day, saying ‘The light is near’ in the presence of darkness. ¹³If I look for Sheol^[+] as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness, ¹⁴if I have said to corruption, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ and ‘My sister,’ ¹⁵where then is my hope? As for my hope, who will see it? ¹⁶Shall it go down with me to the gates of Sheol,or ^[+] descend together into the dust?”

¹¹What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient?

¹In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, “The LORD^[+] says, ‘Set your house in order, for you will die, and not live.’”
