Psalms 88:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 A song, a psalm written by the Korahites; for the music director; according to the machalath-leannoth style; a well-written song by Heman the Ezrachite. O LORD God who delivers me! By day I cry out and at night I pray before you.
2 Listen to my prayer! Pay attention to my cry for help!
3 For my life is filled with troubles and I am ready to enter Sheol.
4 They treat me like those who descend into the grave. I am like a helpless man,
5 adrift among the dead, like corpses lying in the grave, whom you remember no more, and who are cut off from your power.
6 You place me in the lowest regions of the pit, in the dark places, in the watery depths.
7 Your anger bears down on me, and you overwhelm me with all your waves. (Selah)
8 You cause those who know me to keep their distance; you make me an appalling sight to them. I am trapped and cannot get free.
9 My eyes grow weak because of oppression. I call out to you, O LORD, all day long; I spread out my hands in prayer to you.
10 Do you accomplish amazing things for the dead? Do the departed spirits rise up and give you thanks? (Selah)
11 Is your loyal love proclaimed in the grave, or your faithfulness in the place of the dead?
12 Are your amazing deeds experienced in the dark region, or your deliverance in the land of oblivion?
13 As for me, I cry out to you, O LORD; in the morning my prayer confronts you.
14 O LORD, why do you reject me, and pay no attention to me?
15 I am oppressed and have been on the verge of death since my youth. I have been subjected to your horrors and am numb with pain.
16 Your anger overwhelms me; your terrors destroy me.
17 They surround me like water all day long; they join forces and encircle me.
18 You cause my friends and neighbors to keep their distance; those who know me leave me alone in the darkness.
1 A Song H7892 or Psalm H4210 for the sons H1121 of Korah, H7141 to the chief Musician H5329 upon H5921 Mahalath H4257 Leannoth, H6031 Maschil H4905 of Heman H1968 the Ezrahite. H250 O LORD H3068 God H430 of my salvation, H3444 I have cried H6817 day H3117 and night H3915 before H5048 thee:
2 Let my prayer H8605 come H935 before H6440 thee: incline H5186 thine ear H241 unto my cry; H7440
3 For H3588 my soul H5315 is full H7646 of troubles: H7451 and my life H2416 draweth nigh H5060 unto the grave. H7585
4 I am counted H2803 with H5973 them that go down H3381 into the pit: H953 I am H1961 as a man H1397 that hath no H369 strength: H353
5 Free H2670 among the dead, H4191 like H3644 the slain H2491 that lie H7901 in the grave, H6913 whom H834 thou rememberest H2142 no H3808 more: H5750 and they H1992 are cut off H1504 from thy hand H4480 H3027 .
6 Thou hast laid H7896 me in the lowest H8482 pit, H953 in darkness, H4285 in the deeps. H4688
7 Thy wrath H2534 lieth hard H5564 upon H5921 me , and thou hast afflicted H6031 me with all H3605 thy waves. H4867 Selah. H5542
8 Thou hast put away H7368 mine acquaintance H3045 far from H4480 me ; thou hast made H7896 me an abomination H8441 unto them: I am shut up, H3607 and I cannot H3808 come forth. H3318
9 Mine eye H5869 mourneth H1669 by reason of H4480 affliction: H6040 LORD, H3068 I have called H7121 daily H3605 H3117 upon thee , I have stretched out H7849 my hands H3709 unto thee. H413
10 Wilt thou show H6213 wonders H6382 to the dead H4191 ? shall the dead H7496 arise H6965 and praise H3034 thee? Selah. H5542
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 H413 thee have I H589 cried, H7768 O LORD; H3068 and in the morning H1242 shall my prayer H8605 prevent H6923 thee.
14 LORD H3068 , why H4100 castest thou off H2186 my soul H5315 ? why hidest H5641 thou thy face H6440 from H4480 me?
15 I H589 am afflicted H6041 and ready to die H1478 from my youth up H4480 H5290 : while I suffer H5375 thy terrors H367 I am distracted. H6323
16 Thy fierce wrath H2740 goeth H5674 over H5921 me ; thy terrors H1161 have cut me off. H6789
17 They came round about H5437 me daily H3605 H3117 like water; H4325 they compassed me about H5362 H5921 together. H3162
18 Lover H157 and friend H7453 hast thou put far H7368 from H4480 me, and mine acquaintance H3045 into darkness. H4285
