Psalms 88:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 You have laid me in the lowest Pit, in the darkest of the depths.

7 Your wrath weighs heavily upon me; all Your waves have submerged me. Selah

8 You have removed my friends from me; You have made me repulsive to them; I am confined and cannot escape.

9 My eyes grow dim with grief. I call to You daily, O LORD; I spread out my hands to You.

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