The wicked shall be
turned into hell
(Sheol), and all
the nations that forget God. Ps 9:17
For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world
(Sheol);
neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. Ps 16:10
JPS
For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the
lowest hell
(Sheol). Ps 86:13
Hell
(Sheol)
from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the
dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from
their thrones all the kings of the nations. Isa 14:9
(Vulgata; Infernus)
They also shall go down to Sheol with it
(Egypt),
to those who are slain by the sword
(as in; Valhalla). Eze 31:17
Though they dig into hell
(Sheol),
thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I
bring them down. Am 9:2
And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me;
out of the belly of hell
(Sheol)
cried I, and thou heardest my voice. Jon 2:2
In the Latin Vulgata, the Old Testamentical Sheol and the New Testamentical Hades are translated with Infernus (being underneath) or Inferus (Those below), a word that usually is translated to English with underworld or Hell. Hell calls up images of blazing fires, but these are more related to Gehenna, the fiery lake where the unconvertible evil souls are destroyed.
