Psalms 88

1 LORD, you are the God who saves me; day and night I cry out to you.

1 O Yahweh, God of my salvation, I cry out by day [and] through the night before you.

2 May my prayer come before you; turn your ear to my cry.

2 Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.

3 I am overwhelmed with troubles and my life draws near to death.

3 For my soul is full with troubles, and my life approaches Sheol.

4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am like one without strength.

4 I am reckoned with [those] descending to [the] pit. I am like a man without strength,

5 I am set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care.

5 set free among the dead, like [the] slain lying in [the] grave, whom you no longer remember, even those cut off from your hand.

6 You have put me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.

6 You have set me in [the] pit below, in dark places, in [the] depths.

7 Your wrath lies heavily on me; you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.

7 Your wrath presses upon me, and you afflict [me with] all your waves. Selah

8 You have taken from me my closest friends and have made me repulsive to them. I am confined and cannot escape;

8 You have removed my acquaintances far from me. You have made me detestable to them. [I am] confined and cannot go out.

9 my eyes are dim with grief. I call to you, LORD, every day; I spread out my hands to you.

9 My eye languishes from misery. I call on you, O Yahweh, every day; I spread out my hands to you.

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

10 Do you work wonders for the dead? Or do [the] departed spirits rise up [to] praise you? Selah

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

11 Is your loyal love told in the grave, [or] your faithfulness in the underworld?

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

12 Are your wonders known in the darkness, [or] your righteousness in [the] land of forgetfulness?

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

13 But as for me, I cry for help to you, O Yahweh, and in the morning my prayer comes before you.

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

14 Why do you reject my soul, O Yahweh? [Why] do you hide your face from me?

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

15 I [am] afflicted and perishing from [my] youth. I bear your terrors. I am distraught.

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

16 Your burning anger has passed over me; your sudden fears have destroyed me.

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

17 They surround me like water all the day; they circle about me altogether.

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

18 You have removed loved one and friend far from me, my acquaintances [far from my] darkness.
