13
Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest conceal me until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14
If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my service I would wait, till my release should come.
15
Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee; thou wouldest long for the work of thy hands.
16
For then thou wouldest number my steps, thou wouldest not keep watch over my sin;
17
my transgression would be sealed up in a bag, and thou wouldest cover over my iniquity.
