Psalms 88:1-10 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. Lord, you are the God who saves me.I cry out to you day and night.

2. Accept my prayer.Listen to my cry.

3. My life is full of troubles.I am nearly dead.

4. They think I am on the way to my grave.I am like a man with no strength.

5. I have been left as dead,like a body lying in a grave.You don’t remember dead people.They are cut off from your care.

6. You have brought me close to death.I am almost in the dark place of the dead.

7. You have been very angry with me.All your waves crush me. Selah

8. You have taken my friends away from me.You have made them hate me.I am trapped and cannot escape.

9. My eyes are weak from crying.Lord, I have prayed to you every day.I have lifted my hands in prayer to you.

10. Do you show your miracles for the dead?Do their spirits rise up and praise you? Selah
