Psalm 88:3-9
New International Version
3 I am overwhelmed with troubles(A)
and my life draws near to death.(B)
4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit;(C)
I am like one without strength.(D)
5 I am set apart with the dead,
like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
who are cut off(E) from your care.
6 You have put me in the lowest pit,
in the darkest depths.(F)
7 Your wrath(G) lies heavily on me;
you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[a](H)
8 You have taken from me my closest friends(I)
and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined(J) and cannot escape;(K)
9 my eyes(L) are dim with grief.
