'Go Down to the Pit' in the Bible

A Psalm of David.To You, O Lord, I call;My rock, do not be deaf to me,For if You are silent to me,I will become like those who go down to the pit.

O Lord, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.

“What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?

I am reckoned among those who go down to the pit;I have become like a man without strength,

Answer me quickly, O Lord, my spirit fails;Do not hide Your face from me,Or I will become like those who go down to the pit.
