“ What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness?

I said,“ What good will come if I become silent in death? What good will come if I go down into the grave? Can the dust of my dead body praise you? Can it tell how faithful you are?

“ What profit is there in my death, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness?

“ What will you gain if I die, if I sink into the grave? Can my dust praise you? Can it tell of your faithfulness?

“ What gain is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your truth?

“ What gain is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?

“ What profit is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

“ What gain is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your truth?

What profit[ is there] in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

“ What profit is there in taking my life, in my descending into the Pit? Can the dust of the grave praise you? Can it declare your loyalty?

“ What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth?

因為在死地沒有人記念你，在陰間有誰會稱謝你呢？

死人不能讚美耶和華，所有下到寂靜之地的都不能。至於我們，我們要頌讚耶和華，從今直到永遠。哈利路亞！

陰間不會稱頌你，死亡不會讚美你，下陰坑的人也不會盼望你的信實；

我必不至於死，卻要存活，並要述說耶和華的作為。

難道你要為死人行奇妙的事嗎？難道陰魂會起來稱謝你嗎？細拉難道有人會在墳墓裡述說你的慈愛，在地獄裡述說你的信實嗎？難道你的奇妙之事要顯明在黑暗中，你的公義要顯明在被遺忘之地嗎？

凡是你手當做的，你都當極力去做；因為在你必去的陰間沒有工作，沒有籌劃，沒有知識，也沒有智慧。
