Job 11:8

Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above all the earth!

For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.

Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me.

Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’

But who is able to build him a house, since heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain him? Who am I then, that I should build him a house, except just to burn incense before him?

“Isn’t God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!

Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

Yahweh is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.

If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!

Sheol and Abaddon are before Yahweh— how much more then the hearts of the children of men!

Yahweh says, “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build to me? Where will I rest?

he foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul wasn’t left in Hades, and his flesh didn’t see decay.

But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”

Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

that he should live on forever, that he should not see corruption.

In that day you will say, “Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name. Declare his doings among the peoples. Proclaim that his name is exalted!

Though Babylon should mount up to the sky, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet destroyers will come to her from me,” says Yahweh.

Though you mount on high as the eagle, and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there,” says Yahweh.

and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forever and ever. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades.

The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works.

“ ‘You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you. I am Yahweh.

“ ‘All the days that he separates himself to Yahweh he shall not go near a dead body.

Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.

For a fire is kindled in my anger, that burns to the lowest Sheol, devours the earth with its increase, and sets the foundations of the mountains on fire.

About Levi he said, “Your Thummim and your Urim are with your godly one, whom you proved at Massah, with whom you contended at the waters of Meribah.

before I go where I will not return from, to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;

For when a few years have come, I will go the way of no return.

if I have said to corruption, ‘You are my father;’ to the worm, ‘My mother,’ and ‘My sister,’

Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

Destruction and Death say, ‘We have heard a rumor of it with our ears.’

Terrors have turned on me. They chase my honor as the wind. My welfare has passed away as a cloud.

Look to the skies, and see. See the skies, which are higher than you.

The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.

For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?

Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.

For he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, Yahweh saw the earth;

But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,

For his loving kindness is great toward us. Yahweh’s faithfulness endures forever. Praise Yah!

Fulfill your promise to your servant, that you may be feared.

As the heavens for height, and the earth for depth, so the hearts of kings are unsearchable.

Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; and a man’s eyes are never satisfied.

All go to one place. All are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.

Don’t be rash with your mouth, and don’t let your heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven, and you on earth. Therefore let your words be few.

Therefore Sheol has enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, their multitude, their pomp, and he who rejoices among them, descend into it.

Sheol from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

“Seventy weeks are decreed on your people and on your holy city, to finish disobedience, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy.

I will ransom them from the power of Sheol. I will redeem them from death! Death, where are your plagues? Sheol, where is your destruction? “Compassion will be hidden from my eyes.

Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down.

I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever: yet have you brought up my life from the pit, Yahweh my God.

Yahweh is slow to anger, and great in power, and will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. Yahweh has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.

The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.

His mercy is for generations of generations on those who fear him.

saying, “Ah! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”

In Hades, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom.

For as yet they didn’t know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.

The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands.

So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.

may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth,

There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.

“But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain you; how much less this house which I have built!

As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he who goes down to Sheol will come up no more.

for it is a fire that consumes to destruction, and would root out all my increase.

You have ascended on high. You have led away captives. You have received gifts among people, yes, among the rebellious also, that Yah God might dwell there.

Is your loving kindness declared in the grave? Or your faithfulness in Destruction?

For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

even the darkness doesn’t hide from you, but the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.

let them praise Yahweh’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.

As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill, though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says Yahweh.

saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God!”

They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”

He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.

I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.
