Psalms 88:10-18

10Do you work wonders for the dead? Do departed spirits rise up to praise you?Selah

11Will your faithful love be declared in the grave, your faithfulness in Abaddon?

12Will your wonders be known in the darkness or your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

13But I call to you for help, Lord; in the morning my prayer meets you.

14Lord, why do you reject me? Why do you hide your face from me?

15From my youth, I have been suffering and near death. I suffer your horrors; I am desperate.

16Your wrath sweeps over me; your terrors destroy me.

17They surround me like water all day long; they close in on me from every side.

18You have distanced loved one and neighbor from me; darkness is my only friend.
