Read in context

Psalms 88:10–14 · Berean Standard Bible

10 Do You work wonders for the dead? Do departed spirits rise up to praise You? Selah

11 Can Your loving devotion be proclaimed in the grave, Your faithfulness in Abaddon ?

12 Will Your wonders be known in the darkness, or Your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

13 But to You, O LORD, I cry for help; in the morning my prayer comes before You.

14 Why, O LORD, do You reject me? Why do You hide Your face from me?
