Psalms 88:3-13

³I have experienced many troubles/difficulties, and I am about to die MTY and go where dead people are.

⁴Because I have no more strength, other people also consider that I will soon die.

⁵I am like a corpse that has been abandoned; I am like dead people who lie in their graves, people who have been completely forgotten, because you do not take care of them anymore.

⁶It is as though you have thrown me into a deep, dark pit, into a place where they throw corpses.

⁷It seems like you are very angry with me, and it is as though you have crushed me like ocean waves crash down on people MET.

⁸You have caused my friends to ◄avoid/stay away from► me; I have become repulsive to them. It is as though I am in a prison and cannot escape.

⁹My eyes cannot see well because I cry very much. Yahweh, every day I call out to you to help me; I lift up my hands to you while I pray.

¹⁰You certainly do not RHQ perform miracles for dead people! Their spirits do not RHQ arise to praise you!

¹¹Corpses in the grave certainly do not tell about your faithfully loving us RHQ, and in the place where people are finally destroyed, no one tells about what you faithfully do for us RHQ.

¹²No one in the deep dark pit ever sees the miracles that you perform RHQ, and no one in the place where people have been completely forgotten tells about your being good to us.

¹³But as for me, Yahweh, I cry out to you to help me; each morning I pray to you.
