| 88:1 | O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: |
| 88:2 | Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; |
| 88:3 | For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. |
| 88:4 | I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength: |
| 88:5 | Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand. |
| 88:6 | Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. |
| 88:7 | Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah. |
| 88:8 | Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. |
| 88:9 | Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. |
| 88:10 | Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah. |
| 88:11 | Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction? |
| 88:12 | Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
| 88:13 | But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. |
| 88:14 | LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? |
| 88:15 | I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. |
| 88:16 | Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off. |
| 88:17 | They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together. |
| 88:18 | Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness. |

| 88:13 | (88:14) ואני אליך יהוה שׁועתי ובבקר תפלתי תקדמך׃ |
| 88:14 | (88:15) למה יהוה תזנח נפשׁי תסתיר פניך ממני׃ |
| 88:15 | (88:16) עני אני וגוע מנער נשׂאתי אמיך אפונה׃ |

| 88:1 | A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer, `Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.' -- An instruction, by Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I have cried, nightly before Thee, |
| 88:2 | My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud cry, |
| 88:3 | For my soul hath been full of evils, And my life hath come to Sheol. |
| 88:4 | I have been reckoned with those going down `to' the pit, I have been as a man without strength. |
| 88:5 | Among the dead -- free, As pierced ones lying in the grave, Whom Thou hast not remembered any more, Yea, they by Thy hand have been cut off. |
| 88:6 | Thou hast put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in depths. |
| 88:7 | Upon me hath Thy fury lain, And `with' all Thy breakers Thou hast afflicted. Selah. |
| 88:8 | Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made me an abomination to them, Shut up -- I go not forth. |
| 88:9 | Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands. |
| 88:10 | To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they thank Thee? Selah. |
| 88:11 | Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction? |
| 88:12 | Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
| 88:13 | And I, unto Thee, O Jehovah, I have cried, And in the morning doth my prayer come before Thee. |
| 88:14 | Why, O Jehovah, castest Thou off my soul? Thou hidest Thy face from me. |
| 88:15 | I `am' afflicted, and expiring from youth, I have borne Thy terrors -- I pine away. |
| 88:16 | Over me hath Thy wrath passed, Thy terrors have cut me off, |
| 88:17 | They have surrounded me as waters all the day, They have gone round against me together, |
| 88:18 | Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine acquaintance `is' the place of darkness! |
