'Life' in the Bible

So they called out to the Lord: “Please, Yahweh, don’t let us perish because of this man’s life, and don’t charge us with innocent blood! For You, Yahweh, have done just as You pleased.”

I sank to the foundations of the mountains;the earth with its prison bars closed behind me forever!But You raised my life from the Pit, Lord my God!

As my life was fading away,I remembered Yahweh.My prayer came to You,to Your holy temple.

And now, Lord, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
