nothing
and jto the Lord I plead for mercy:
9 “What profit is there in my death,1
if I go down to the pit?2
Will kthe dust praise you?
Will it tell of your faithfulness?
10 lHear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!
11 You have turned for me my mourning into mdancing;
12 that my nglory may sing your praise and not be silent.
