13 It might be that the only home I hope for is where the dead are.I might spread out my bed in darkness.
14 I might say to the grave, ‘You are my father.’And I might say to the worm, ‘You are my mother’ or ‘You are my sister.’
15 If these things are true, I have no hope.No one can see any hope for me.
16 Hope will go down to the gates of death.We will go down together into the dust.”
