- the graves:
- "If¹ I wait,ª° the graveª [is] mine house:ª I have madeª° my bedª in the darkness.ª ... I have saidª° to corruption,ª Thou¹ [art] my father:ª to the worm,ª [Thou art] my mother,ª and my sister.ª" {Job 17:13-14} + "For¹ my soulª is fullª° of troubles:ª and my lifeª draweth nighª° unto the grave.ª ... Freeª among the dead,ª° like¹ the slainª that lieª° in the grave,ª whom¹ thou rememberestª° no¹ more:¹ and they¹ are cut offª° from thy hand.ª¹" {Psa 88:3-5} + "I¹ saidª° in the cutting offª of my days,ª I shall go²°¹ to the gatesª of the grave:ª I am deprivedª° of the residueª of my years.ª ... Like a craneª [or] a swallow,ª so¹ did I chatter:ª° I did mournª° as a dove:ª mine eyesª failª° [with looking] upward:ª O LORD,²¹ I am oppressed;ª undertake²°¹ for me." {Isa 38:10-14}
