Psalms 88:1-9

1O LORD, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night beforeH5921 thee:

2Let my prayer enter intoH3915 thy presenceH5048; incline thine ear unto my cryH6817:

3For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draweth nigh unto Sheol.

4I am counted with them that go downH5060 into the pit; I am as a manH5315 that hath no help:

5Cast offH3381 among the dead, like the slain that lieH1961 in the grave, whom thou rememberest noH369 moreH369; and they are cut offH3381 from thy hand.

6Thou hast laidH7901 meH4191 in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.

7Thy wrath lieth hard upon meH7896, and thou hast afflicted meH7896 with allH7896 thy waves. Selah

8Thou hast put mine acquaintance farH5921 from meH5921; thou hast madeH3605 meH5921 an abomination unto them: I am shut upH5921, and I cannot come forth.

9MineH4480 eye wasteth awayH4480 by reason of affliction: I have called daily upon thee, O LORD, I have spreadH3318 forthH3318 my hands unto thee.
