26Turne againe to the most High, and turne away from iniquitie: for he will leade thee out of darkenesse into the light of health, and hate thou abomination vehemently. 27Who shall praise the most High in the graue, in stead of them which liue and giue thanks? 28Thankesgiuing perisheth from the dead, as from one that is not: the liuing and sound in heart, shall praise the Lord. 29How great is the louing kindnes of the Lord our God, and his compassion vnto such as turne vnto him in holinesse? 30For all things cannot bee in men, because þe sonne of man is not immortal.
