“Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction?”
The reach of death: "Is your steadfast love declared in the grave, or your faithfulness in Abaddon?" The questions imply negative answers: the grave and Abaddon (the abyss, death-realm) are places where God's love and faithfulness cannot be proclaimed. Preservation of life becomes necessary for continuing worship.
