Isaiah 38:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

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

10 I said, “In the prime of my life I must go through the gates of Sheol and be deprived of the remainder of my years.”

11 I said, “I will never again see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living; I will no longer look on mankind with those who dwell in this world.

12 My dwelling has been picked up and removed from me like 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.

13 I composed myself until the morning. Like a lion He breaks all my bones; from day until night You make an end of me.
