Psalms 88:8-12

8You have removed 1my acquaintances far from me; You have made me an 23object of loathing to them; I am 4shut up and cannot go out.9My 5eye has wasted away because of affliction; I have 6called upon You every day, O Lord; I have 7spread out my 8hands to You.

10Will You perform wonders for the dead? Will 9the 10departed spirits rise and praise You? Selah.11Will Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave, Your faithfulness in 11Abaddon?12Will Your wonders be made known in the 12darkness? And Your 13righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
