Chapter 88
Psal Webster 88:1  A Song [or] Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day [and] night before thee:
Psal Webster 88:2  Let my prayer come before thee: incline thy ear to my cry;
Psal Webster 88:3  For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh to the grave.
Psal Webster 88:4  I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man [that hath] no strength:
Psal Webster 88:5  Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.
Psal Webster 88:6  Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
Psal Webster 88:7  Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all thy waves. Selah.
Psal Webster 88:8  Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination to them: [I am] shut up, and I cannot come forth.
Psal Webster 88:9  My eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands to thee.
Psal Webster 88:10  Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise [and] praise thee? Selah.
Psal Webster 88:11  Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? [or] thy faithfulness in destruction?
Psal Webster 88:12  Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Psal Webster 88:13  But to thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.
Psal Webster 88:14  LORD, why castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from me?
Psal Webster 88:15  I [am] afflicted and ready to die from [my] youth up: [while] I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
Psal Webster 88:16  Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
Psal Webster 88:17  They came around me daily like water; they encompassed me together.
Psal Webster 88:18  Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, [and] my acquaintance into darkness.
