Psalms 88
88:1

O Yahweh3068 Elohim430 of my salvation,3444 I have cried6817 day3117 and night3915 before thee:

88:2

Let my prayer8605 come935 before6440 thee: incline5186 thine ear241 unto my cry;7440

88:3

For my soul5315 is full7646 of troubles:7451 and my life2416 draweth nigh5060 unto the grave.7585

88:4

I am counted2803 with them that go down3381 into the pit:953 I am as a man1397 that hath no strength:353

88:5

Free2670 among the dead,4191 like the slain2491 that lie7901 in the grave,6913 whom thou rememberest2142 no more: and they are cut off1504 from thy hand.3027

88:6

Thou hast laid7896 me in the lowest8482 pit,953 in darkness,4285 in the deeps.4688

88:7

Thy wrath2534 lieth hard5564 upon me, and thou hast afflicted6031 me with all thy waves.4867 Selah.5542

88:8

Thou hast put away mine acquaintance3045 far7368 from me; thou hast made7896 me an abomination8441 unto them: I am shut up,3607 and I cannot come forth.3318

88:9

Mine eye5869 mourneth1669 by reason of affliction:6040 Yahweh,3068 I have called7121 daily3117 upon thee, I have stretched out7849 my hands3709 unto thee.

88:10

Wilt thou shew6213 wonders6382 to the dead?4191 shall the dead7496 arise6965 and praise3034 thee? Selah.5542

88:11

Shall thy lovingkindness2617 be declared5608 in the grave?6913 or thy faithfulness530 in destruction?11

88:12

Shall thy wonders6382 be known3045 in the dark?2822 and thy righteousness6666 in the land776 of forgetfulness?5388

88:13

But unto thee have I cried,7768 O Yahweh;3068 and in the morning1242 shall my prayer8605 prevent6923 thee.

88:14

Yahweh,3068 why castest thou off2186 my soul?5315 why hidest5641 thou thy face6440 from me?

88:15

I am afflicted6041 and ready to die1478 from my youth5290 up: while I suffer5375 thy terrors367 I am distracted.6323

88:16

Thy fierce wrath2740 goeth over5674 me; thy terrors1161 have cut me off.6789

88:17

They came round about5437 me daily3117 like water;4325 they compassed5362 me about together.3162

88:18

Lover157 and friend7453 hast thou put far7368 from me, and mine acquaintance3045 into darkness.4285
