Psalms 30:3

Grave. — Sheôl (See Note to Psalms 6:5.)

That I should not go down to the pit. — This follows a reading which is considered by modern scholars ungrammatical. The ordinary reading, rightly kept by the LXX. and Vulg., means from these going down to the pit, i.e., from the dead. (Comp. Psalms 28:1.)
