Psalm 88:16

16 Tu ira se ha descargado sobre mí;tus violentos ataques han acabado conmigo.

Psalm 88:16 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 88:16

Thy fierce wrath goeth over me
Or "wraths" ^F8, burning wrath; the whole of divine wrath, in all its fierceness, due to the sins of his people: these, like the mighty waves of the sea, passed over him, threatening to overwhelm him, ( Psalms 89:38 ) ,

thy terrors have cut me off;
from the presence of God, and out of his sight; as sometimes the Lord's people are ready to imagine, when forsaken by him, ( Psalms 31:22 ) or from the land of the living, as the Messiah was, and in a judicial way, though not for any sin of his own, ( Isaiah 53:8 ) ( Daniel 9:26 ) .

Psalm 88:16 In-Context

14 ¿Por qué me rechazas, SEÑOR?¿Por qué escondes de mí tu rostro?

15 Yo he sufrido desde mi juventud;muy cerca he estado de la muerte.Me has enviado terribles sufrimientosy ya no puedo más.

16 Tu ira se ha descargado sobre mí;tus violentos ataques han acabado conmigo.

17 Todo el día me rodean como un océano;me han cercado por completo.

18 Me has quitado amigos y seres queridos;ahora solo tengo amistad con las tinieblas.
