Psalms 88-Recovery Version

【RCV】Psalms 88

1
O Jehovah, the God of my salvation, I have cried out by day and in the night before You.
2
May my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry.
3
For my soul is full of troubles, And my life draws near to Sheol.
4
I am accounted among those who go down into the pit; I am like a man without any help,
5
Abandoned among the dead, Like the slain that lie in the grave, Whom You remember no more, And they are cut off from Your hand.
6
You have put me in the lowest pit, In the dark places, in the depths.
7
Your wrath lies heavily upon me, And You have afflicted me with all Your waves. Selah
8
You have put my acquaintances far from me; You have made me an abomination to them. I am shut in and cannot go out.
9
My eye wastes away at the affliction; I have called out to You, O Jehovah, every day; I have spread out my hands to You.
10
Will You perform wonders for the dead? Will the deceased rise up and praise You? Selah
11
Will Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave, Or Your faithfulness in Abaddon?
12
Will Your wonders be made known in the darkness, Or Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
13
But I, O Jehovah, have cried out to You; And in the morning my prayer comes before You.
14
Why, O Jehovah, have You rejected my soul? Why do You hide Your face from me?
15
I have been afflicted and about to die since my youth; I bear Your terrors; I am overwhelmed.
16
Your fierce wrath has gone over me; Your terrors have cut me off.
17
They surrounded me like water all day long; They altogether encompassed me.
18
You have put far from me Lover and friend; My acquaintances are in darkness.
