Psalm 88:1-18
  • 1[A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite.] O LORD, God of my salvation; I cry out day and night before you.
  • 2Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry!
  • 3For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol.
  • 4I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am a man who has no strength,
  • 5like one set loose among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, like those whom you remember no more, for they are cut off from your hand.
  • 6You have put me in the depths of the pit, in the regions dark and deep.
  • 7Your wrath lies heavy upon me, and you overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah
  • 8You have caused my companions to shun me; you have made me a horror to them. I am shut in so that I cannot escape;
  • 9my eye grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call upon you, O LORD; I spread out my hands to you.
  • 10Do you work wonders for the dead? Do the departed rise up to praise you? Selah
  • 11Is your steadfast love declared in the grave, or your faithfulness in Abaddon?
  • 12Are your wonders known in the darkness, or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
  • 13But I, O LORD, cry to you; in the morning my prayer comes before you.
  • 14O LORD, why do you cast my soul away? Why do you hide your face from me?
  • 15Afflicted and close to death from my youth up, I suffer your terrors; I am helpless.
  • 16Your wrath has swept over me; your dreadful assaults destroy me.
  • 17They surround me like a flood all day long; they close in on me together.
  • 18You have caused my beloved and my friend to shun me; my companions have become darkness.
