Psalms 88:10-18

10Do you show your wonders to the dead? Do their spirits rise up and praise you?

11Is your love declared in the grave, your faithfulness in Destruction?

12Are your wonders known in the place of darkness, or your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?

13But I cry to you for help, Lord; in the morning my prayer comes before you.

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

15From my youth I have suffered and been close to death; I have borne your terrors and am in despair.

16Your wrath has swept over me; your terrors have destroyed me.

17All day long they surround me like a flood; they have completely engulfed me.

18You have taken from me friend and neighbor— darkness is my closest friend.
