Isaiah 38:11
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.”
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.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
