Isaiah 38:12

Hezekiah's Illness

¹¹ I said: I will never see the Lord,
the Lord in the land of the living;
I will not look on humanity any longer
with the inhabitants of what is passing away.
¹² My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me
like a shepherd’s tent.
I have rolled up my life like a weaver;

You make an end of me from day until night.
¹³ I thought until the morning:
He will break all my bones like a lion;
You make an end of me day and night.
