17 Now my bitter experience turns into peace.You have saved me and kept me from the rotting pit.You have thrown all my sins behind you.
18 Sheol doesn’t thank you!Death doesn’t praise you!Those who go down to the pit cannot expect you to be faithful.
19 Those who are living praise you as I do today.Fathers make your faithfulness known to their children.
20 The Lord is going to rescue me,so let us play stringed instruments.We live our lives in the Lord’s temple.
