Psalms 88:3-18

3For my 1soulH5315 has 2hadH7646 enoughH7646 troublesH7463, And 3my lifeH2425 has approachedH5060 4SheolH7585.4I am countedH2803 amongH5973 those who 5goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953; I have becomeH1961 like a manH1397 6withoutH369 strengthH353,57AbandonedH2670 8among the deadH4191, LikeH3644 the slainH2491 who lieH7901 in the graveH6913, WhomH834 You noH3808 longerH5750 rememberH2142, And they are 9cutH1504 offH1504 from Your handH3027.6You have putH7896 me in 10the lowestH8482 pitH953, In 11darkH4285 placesH4285, in the 12depthsH4688.7Your wrathH2534 13has restedH5564 upon me, And You have afflictedH6031 me with 14allH3605 Your wavesH4867. SelahH55428You have removedH7368 15my acquaintancesH3045 farH7368 from me; You have madeH7896 me an 1617objectH8441 ofH8441 loathingH8441 to them; I am 18shutH3607 upH3607 and cannotH3808 goH3318 outH3318.9My 19eyeH5869 growsH1669 dimH1669 from miseryH6040; I have 20calledH7121 upon You everyH3605 dayH3117, LordH3068; I have 21spreadH7849 outH7849 my 22handsH3709 to You.

10Will You performH6213 wondersH6382 for the deadH4191? OrH518 will 23the departedH7496 spiritsH7496 riseH6965 and praiseH3034 You? SelahH554211Will Your graciousnessH2617 be declaredH5608 in the graveH6913, Your faithfulnessH530 in 24AbaddonH11?12Will Your wondersH6382 be madeH3045 knownH3045 in the 25darknessH2822? And Your righteousnessH6666 in the landH776 of forgetfulnessH5388?

13But I, LordH3068, have criedH7768 outH7768 26to You forH7768 helpH7768, And 27in the morningH1242 my prayerH8605 comesH6923 beforeH6923 You.14LordH3068, whyH4100 28do You rejectH2186 my soulH5315? Why do You 29hideH5641 Your faceH6440 from me?15I was miserableH6041 and 30about to dieH1478 from my youthH5290 on; I sufferH5375 31Your terrorsH367; I growH647 wearyH647.16Your 32burningH2740 angerH2740 has passedH5674 overH5921 me; Your terrorsH1161 have 3334destroyedH6789 me.17They have 35surroundedH5437 me 36like waterH4325 allH3605 dayH3117 long; They have 37encircledH5362 me altogetherH3162.18You have removedH7368 38loverH157 and friendH7453 farH7368 from me; My acquaintancesH3045 are in a hidingH4285 placeH4285.
