Psalms 88:8-12

8You have caused my best friends to keep away from me. They do not even want to look at me. A trap has caught me and I cannot escape.

9My eyes have become weak because I am so sad. Lord, every day I call to you for help. I lift my hands up to you as I pray.

10Your great miracles do not help dead people! Dead people cannot get up and praise you! Selah.

11People in their graves cannot talk about your faithful love! In the world of death, they cannot say how faithful you are.

12In those dark places, they do not see your miracles. In that place where people forget everything, they cannot know about the good things that you do.
