14I have said to rottenness: Thou art my father; to worms, my mother and my sister.
15Where is now then my expectation, and who considereth my patience?
16All that I have shall go down into the deepest pit: thinkest thou that there at least I shall have rest?

if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’
and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
where then is my hope?
Who will see my hope?
Will it go down to the bars of Sheol?
Shall we descend together into the dust?”
