Psalms 88

6 Ref You have put me in the lowest deep, even in dark places.

7 Ref The weight of your wrath is crushing me, all your waves have overcome me. (Selah.)

8 Ref You have sent my friends far away from me; you have made me a disgusting thing in their eyes: I am shut up, and not able to come out.

9 Ref My eyes are wasting away because of my trouble: Lord, my cry has gone up to you every day, my hands are stretched out to you.

10 Ref Will you do works of wonder for the dead? will the shades come back to give you praise? (Selah.)

11 Ref Will the story of your mercy be given in the house of the dead? will news of your faith come to the place of destruction?

12 Ref May there be knowledge of your wonders in the dark? or of your righteousness where memory is dead?

13 Ref But to you did I send up my cry, O Lord; in the morning my prayer came before you.

14 Ref Lord, why have you sent away my soul? why is your face covered from me?

15 Ref I have been troubled and in fear of death from the time when I was young; your wrath is hard on me, and I have no strength.

16 Ref The heat of your wrath has gone over me; I am broken by your cruel punishments.

17 Ref They are round me all the day like water; they have made a circle about me.

18 Ref You have sent my friends and lovers far from me; I am gone from the memory of those who are dear to me.
