Psalm 88:5-7
New English Translation
5 adrift[a] among the dead,
like corpses lying in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
and who are cut off from your power.[b]
6 You place me in the lowest regions of the Pit,[c]
in the dark places, in the watery depths.
7 Your anger bears down on me,
and you overwhelm me with all your waves. (Selah)
