Isaiah 38:15 Context
13I reckoned till morning, that as a Lyon so will hee breake all my bones: from day euen to night wilt thou make an end of me. 14Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter; I did mourne as a doue: mine eyes faile with looking vpward: O Lord, I am oppressed, vndertake for me. 15What shall I say? hee hath both spoken vnto mee, and himselfe hath done it: I shall goe softly, all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule. 16O Lord, by these things men liue: and in all these things is the life of my spirit, so wilt thou recouer me, and make me to liue. 17Behold, for peace I had great bitternesse, but thou hast in loue to my soule deliuered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
