PSALM 88
Incline Your Ear to My Cry
A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. For the choir director. According to Mahalath Leannoth. A [fn]Maskil of Heman [fn]the Ezrahite.
1 O Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of my salvation H3444,
I have cried H6817 out H6817 by day H3117 and throughout the night H3915 before H5048 You.
2 Let my prayer H8605 come H935 before H6440 You;
Incline H5186 Your ear H241 to my cry H7440 of lamentation H7440!
3 For my soul H5315 has been saturated H7646 with calamities H7451,
And my life H2416 has reached H5060 Sheol H7585.
4 I am counted H2803 among H5973 those who go H3381 down H3381 to the pit H953;
I am H1961 like a man H1397 without H369 strength H353,
5 Released H2670 among the dead H4191,
Like H3644 the slain H2491 who lie H7901 in the grave H6913,
Whom H834 You remember H2142 no H3808 more H5750,
And they are cut H1504 off H1504 from Your hand H3027.
6 You have put H7896 me in the pit H953 far H8482 below H8482,
In dark H4285 places H4285, in the depths H4688.
7 Your wrath H2534 lies H5564 upon me,
And You afflict H6031 me with all H3605 Your breaking H4867 waves H4867. [fn]Selah H5542.
8 You have removed H7368 my acquaintances H3045 far H7368 from me;
You have set H7896 me as [fn]an abomination H8441 to them;
I am shut H3607 up H3607 and cannot H3808 go H3318 out H3318.
9 My eye H5869 has wasted H1669 away H1669 because H4480 of affliction H6040;
I have called H7121 upon You every H3605 day H3117, O Yahweh H3068;
I have spread H7849 out H7849 my [fn]hands H3709 to You.
10 Will You do H6213 wonders H6382 for the dead H4191?
Will the [fn]departed H7496 spirits H7496 rise H6965 and praise H3034 You? Selah H5542.
11 Will Your lovingkindness H2617 be recounted H5608 in the grave H6913,
Your faithfulness H530 in [fn]Abaddon H11?
12 Will Your wonders H6382 be known H3045 in the darkness H2822?
And Your righteousness H6666 in the land H776 of forgetfulness H5388?
13 But as for me, O Yahweh H3068, I have cried H7768 out H7768 to You for H7768 help H7768,
And in the morning H1242 my prayer H8605 comes H6923 before H6923 You.
14 O Yahweh H3068, why H4100 do You reject H2186 my soul H5315?
Why do You hide H5641 Your face H6440 from me?
15 I have been afflicted H6041 and about to breathe H1478 my last H1478 from my youth H5290 on;
I bear H5375 Your terrors H367; I am [fn]overcome H6323.
16 Your burning H2740 anger H2740 has passed H5674 over H5921 me;
Your horrors H1161 have [fn]destroyed H6789 me.
17 They have surrounded H5437 me like water H4325 all H3605 day H3117 long;
They have encompassed H5362 me altogether H3162.
18 You have removed H7368 lover H157 and friend H7453 far H7368 from me;
