Psalm 88 :: Webster's Bible (WEB)

Psa 88:1A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:
Psa 88:2Let my prayer come before thee: incline thy ear to my cry;
Psa 88:3For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh to the grave.
Psa 88:4I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength:
Psa 88:5Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.
Psa 88:6Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
Psa 88:7Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.
Psa 88:8Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination to them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
Psa 88:9My eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands to thee.
Psa 88:10Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.
Psa 88:11Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction?
Psa 88:12Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Psa 88:13But to thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.
Psa 88:14LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?
Psa 88:15I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
Psa 88:16Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
Psa 88:17They came around me daily like water; they encompassed me together.
Psa 88:18Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and my acquaintance into darkness.
