Psalm 88:4

4 Já estou contado com os que descem � cova; estou como homem sem forças,

Psalm 88:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 88:4

I am counted with them that go down into the pit
With the dead, with them that are worthy of death, with malefactors that are judicially put to death, and are not laid in a common grave, but put into a pit together: thus Christ was reckoned and accounted of by the Jews; the sanhedrim counted him worthy of death; and the common people cried out Crucify him; and they did crucify him between two malefactors; and so he was numbered or counted with transgressors, and as one of them, ( Isaiah 53:3 Isaiah 53:4 Isaiah 53:12 ) .

I am as a man that hath no strength;
for his "strength" was "dried up like a potsherd", ( Psalms 22:15 ) , though he was the mighty God, and, as man, was made strong by the Lord for himself.

Psalm 88:4 In-Context

2 Chegue � tua presença a minha oração, inclina os teus ouvidos ao meu clamor;

3 porque a minha alma está cheia de angústias, e a minha vida se aproxima do Seol.

4 Já estou contado com os que descem � cova; estou como homem sem forças,

5 atirado entre os finados; como os mortos que jazem na sepultura, dos quais já não te lembras, e que são desamparados da tua mão.

6 Puseste-me na cova mais profunda, em lugares escuros, nas profundezas.
