Psalms [Praises] 88:7-12

⁷Your wrath lies heavily on me. You have afflicted me with all your waves. Selah ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

⁸You have taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can’t escape.

⁹My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, Adonai . I have spread out my hands to you.

¹⁰Do you show wonders to the dead? Do the departed spirits rise up and yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you? Selah ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

¹¹Is your cheshed ·loving-kindness· declared in the grave? Or your faithfulness in Abaddon ·Destruction, Unrighteous side of Sheol·?

¹²Are your wonders made known in the dark? Or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
