# 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." AT: "For those in Sheol do not thank you; dead people do not praise you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/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/translate/figs-you]])
# The living person, the living person
Hezekiah repeats this phrase to emphasize that only a living person, not a dead person, can give thanks to Yahweh. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])
