Psalm 88

A Song [or] Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:1} O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day [and] night before thee: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:2} Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:3} For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:4} I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man [that hath] no strength: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:5} Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:6} Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:7} Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all thy waves. Selah. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:8} Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: [I am] shut up, and I cannot come forth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:9} Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:10} Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise [and] praise thee? Selah. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:11} Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? [or] thy faithfulness in destruction? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:12} Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:13} But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:14} LORD, why castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from me? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:15} I [am] afflicted and ready to die from [my] youth up: [while] I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:16} Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:17} They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 88:18} Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, [and] mine acquaintance into darkness.
