Uzziah was the one who rebuilt Eloth and restored it to Judah after King Amaziah rested with his fathers.

And Uzziah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in a field of burial that belonged to the kings, for the people said, “He was a leper.” And his son Jotham reigned in his place.

And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.

And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of Jerusalem, but he was not placed in the tombs of the kings of Israel. And his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.

And Hezekiah rested with his fathers and was buried in the upper tombs of David’s descendants. All Judah and the people of Jerusalem paid him honor at his death. And his son Manasseh reigned in his place.

And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried at his palace. And his son Amon reigned in his place.

For now I would be lying down in peace; I would be asleep and at rest

When I lie down I think: ‘When will I get up?’ But the night drags on, and I toss and turn until dawn.

Why do You not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For soon I will lie down in the dust; You will seek me, but I will be no more.”

You will be secure, because there is hope, and you will look around and lie down in safety.

…so a man lies down and does not rise. Until the heavens are no more, he will not be awakened or roused from sleep.

The youthful vigor that fills his bones will lie down with him in the dust.

But together they lie down in the dust, and worms cover them both.

He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more; when he opens his eyes, all is gone.

Night pierces my bones, and my gnawing pains never rest.

Who has the wisdom to count the clouds? Or who can tilt the water jars of the heavens

He lies under the lotus plants, hidden among the reeds of the marsh.

I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.

I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.

“A vile disease has been poured into him; he will never get up from where he lies!”

My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts—with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.

Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.”

I am forsaken among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom You remember no more, who are cut off from Your care.

When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you rest, your sleep will be sweet.

How long will you lie there, O slacker? When will you get up from your sleep?

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,

When you walk, they will guide you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak to you.

You will be like one sleeping on the high seas or lying on the top of a mast:

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,

Indeed, all his days are filled with grief, and his task is sorrowful; even at night, his mind does not rest. This too is futile.

Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; but how can one keep warm alone?

Even the cypresses and cedars of Lebanon exult over you: “Since you have been laid low, no woodcutter comes against us.”

All the kings of the nations lie in state, each in his own tomb.

…who brings out the chariots and horses, the armies and warriors together, to lie down, never to rise again; to be extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:

Behold, all you who kindle a fire, who array yourselves with firebrands, walk in the light of your fire and of the firebrands you have lit! This is what you will receive from My hand: You will lie down in a place of torment.

Your sons have fainted; they lie at the head of every street, like an antelope in a net. They are full of the wrath of the LORD, the rebuke of your God.

Israel’s watchmen are blind, they are all oblivious; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they are dreamers lying around, loving to slumber.

Let us lie down in our shame; let our disgrace cover us. We have sinned against the LORD our God, both we and our fathers; from our youth even to this day we have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.”

Both young and old lie together in the dust of the streets. My young men and maidens have fallen by the sword. You have slain them in the day of Your anger; You have slaughtered them without compassion.

Then lie down on your left side and place the iniquity of the house of Israel upon yourself. You are to bear their iniquity for the number of days you lie on your side.

When you have completed these days, lie down again, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have assigned to you 40 days, a day for each year.

But take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt; put them in a single container and make them into bread for yourself. This is what you are to eat during the 390 days you lie on your side.

Who then is like you in glory and greatness among the trees of Eden? You also will be brought down to the depths of the earth to be with the trees of Eden. You will lie among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord GOD.’”

Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be placed with the uncircumcised!

Mighty chiefs will speak from the midst of Sheol about Egypt and her allies: ‘They have come down and lie with the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.’

They do not lie down with the fallen warriors of old, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were placed under their heads, whose shields rested on their bones, although the terror of the mighty was once in the land of the living.
