Psalms 88:1-10 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. O Lord God, my savior,I cry out to you during the day and at night.

2. Let my prayer come into your presence.Turn your ear to hear my cries.

3. My soul is filled with troubles,and my life comes closer to the grave.

4. I am numbered with those who go into the pit.I am like a man without any strength—

5. abandoned with the dead,like those who have been killed and lie in graves,like those whom you no longer remember,who are cut off from your power.

6. You have put me in the bottom of the pit—in deep, dark places.

7. Your rage lies heavily on me.You make all your waves pound on me. Selah

8. You have taken my friends far away from me.You made me disgusting to them.I’m shut in, and I can’t get out.

9. My eyes grow weak because of my suffering.All day long I call out to you, O Lord.I stretch out my hands to you ⌊in prayer⌋.

10. Will you perform miracles for those who are dead?Will the spirits of the dead rise and give thanks to you? Selah
