NETBible

Are your amazing deeds experienced in the dark region, or your deliverance in the land of oblivion?

NET Notes

tn Heb “known.”

tn Heb “darkness,” here a title for Sheol.

tn Heb “forgetfulness.” The noun, which occurs only here in the OT, is derived from a verbal root meaning “to forget.”

sn The rhetorical questions in vv. 10-12 expect the answer, “Of course not!”
