Isaiah 38:12

Hezekiah's Illness

¹¹
I said, “I will not see the Lord
The Lord in the land of the living;
I will no longer see man among the inhabitants of the world.
¹² 
“My dwelling (body) is pulled up and removed from me like a shepherd’s tent;
I have rolled up my life as a weaver [rolls up the finished web].
He cuts me free from the warp [of the loom];
From day to night You bring me to an end.
¹³
“I lay down until morning.
Like a lion, so He breaks all my bones;
From day until night You bring me to an end.
