O death, where is thy sting? — Which once was full of hellish poison. O hades, the receptacle of separate souls, where is thy victory — Thou art now robbed of all thy spoils; all thy captives are set at liberty. Hades literally means the invisible world, and relates to the soul; death, to the body. The Greek words are found in the Septuagint translation of Hosea 13:14. Isaiah 25:8
