Chapter 88 | |
1 | O lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: |
2 | Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; |
3 | For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. |
4 | I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength: |
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. |
6 | Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. |
7 | Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah. |
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. |
9 | Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. |
10 | Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah. |
11 | Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction? |
12 | Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
13 | But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. |
14 | LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? |
15 | I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. |
16 | Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off. |
17 | They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together. |
18 | Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness. |
