Psalm 30:9 argues that the dead cannot praise God, matching the logic in Psalm 6:5 about Sheol.

Psalm 88:10-12 echoes the same question: can the dead praise God? Both lament that Sheol is a place of silence and forgetfulness.

Psalm 115:17 directly states that the dead do not praise the LORD, reinforcing the same idea that death ends worship.

Psalm 118:17 contrasts by declaring the psalmist will live to recount God's deeds, unlike the dead who cannot praise.

Isaiah 38:18 similarly says Sheol cannot thank or praise God, matching the lament that death silences worship.

Isaiah 38:19 contrasts by emphasizing that the living thank God, while the dead cannot—highlighting the urgency of praise.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 states the dead know nothing and are forgotten, directly paralleling the idea of no remembrance or praise.

Isaiah 38:11 laments not seeing the LORD in the land of the living, echoing the separation from God in death.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 expands on Sheol's inactivity—no work or thought—paralleling the idea that death ends all activity, including praise.

John 9:4 uses 'night coming when no one can work' as a metaphor for death ending labor, similar to the cessation of praise in Sheol.
