Isaiah38:18
Ver. 18. For the grave cannot praiſe thee] i. e. Palam & cum aliis, openly and exemplarily. See Pſal. 6.5. with the Notes: David deſires to live for no other end (and ſo Hezekiah) then to be glorifying of God.
They that go down into the pit] Of the grave: ſo, of deſpair. It is a ſin for any man to ſay I am a reprobate: for it keeps him in ſin, and cuts the ſinews of endeavour.
