ASV_Strong : Psalms 88
1.
2. Let my prayer[H8605] enter[H935] into thy presence[H6440]; Incline[H5186] thine ear[H241] unto my cry[H7440].
3. For my soul[H5315] is full[H7646] of troubles[H7451], And my life[H2416] draweth nigh[H5060] unto Sheol[H7585].
4. I am reckoned[H2803] with them that go down[H3381] into the pit[H953]; I am as a man[H1397] that hath no help[H353],
5. Cast[H2670] off among the dead[H4191], Like the slain[H2491] that lie[H7901] in the grave[H6913], Whom thou rememberest[H2142] no more[H1504], And they are cut off from thy hand[H3027].
6. Thou hast laid[H7896] me in the lowest[H8482] pit[H953], In dark[H4285] places[H4688], in the deeps.
7. Thy wrath[H2534] lieth hard[H5564] upon me[H6031], And thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves[H4867]. [H5542][[Selah
8. Thou hast put[H7368] mine acquaintance[H3045] far[H7368] from me[H7896]; Thou hast made me an abomination[H8441] unto them[H3607]: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth[H3318].
9. Mine eye[H5869] wasteth[H1669] away by reason of affliction[H6040]: I have called[H7121] daily[H3117] upon thee[H3068], O Jehovah; I have spread forth[H7849] my hands unto thee[H3709].
10. Wilt thou show[H6213] wonders[H6382] to the dead[H4191]? Shall they that are deceased[H7496] arise[H6965] and praise[H3034] thee[H5542]? Selah
11. Shall thy lovingkindness[H2617] be declared[H5608] in the grave[H6913]? Or thy faithfulness[H530] in Destruction[H11]?
12. Shall thy wonders[H6382] be known[H3045] in the dark[H2822]? And thy righteousness[H6666] in the land[H776] of forgetfulness[H5388]?
13. But unto thee[H3068], O Jehovah, have I cried[H7768]; And in the morning[H1242] shall my prayer[H8605] come before thee[H6923].
14. Jehovah[H3068], why castest thou off[H2186] my soul[H5315]? Why hidest[H5641] thou thy face from me[H6440]?
15. I am afflicted[H6041] and ready to die[H1478] from my youth[H5290] up[H5375]: While I suffer thy terrors[H367] I am distracted[H6323].
16. Thy fierce wrath[H2740] is gone over[H5674] me[H1161]; Thy terrors have cut me off[H6789].
17. They came round about[H5437] me like water[H4325] all the day[H3117] long[H5362]; They compassed me about together[H3162].
18. Lover[H157] and friend[H7453] hast thou put far[H7368] from me[H3045], And mine acquaintance into darkness[H4285].
