¹³ If I hope for ^(A)Sheol as ^(B)my house,
    if I make my bed in darkness,
¹⁴ if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’
    and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
¹⁵ where then is my hope?
    Who will see my hope?
¹⁶ Will it go down to the bars of ^(C)Sheol?
    Shall we ^(D)descend together ^(E)into the dust?”^[a]
