# General Information:
Hezekiah continues his written prayer.
# For Sheol does not thank you; death does not praise you
Here "Sheol" and "death" refer to "dead people." Alternate translation: "For those in Sheol do not thank you; dead people do not praise you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# those who go down into the pit
"those who go down to the grave"
# do not hope in your trustworthiness
"do not have hope in your faithfulness." Here "your" is singular and refers to Yahweh. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])
