11 Shall Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave?
Or Your faithfulness in the place of destruction?
12 Shall Your wonders be known in the dark?
And Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

13 But to You I have cried out, O Lord,
And in the morning my prayer comes before You.
14 Lord, why do You cast off my soul?
Why do You hide Your face from me?
15 I have been afflicted and ready to die from my youth;
I suffer Your terrors;
I am distraught.
16 Your fierce wrath has gone over me;
Your terrors have [a]cut me off.
17 They came around me all day long like water;
They engulfed me altogether.
18 (A)Loved one and friend You have put far from me,
And my acquaintances into darkness.

  1. Psalm 88:16 destroyed me

11 Is your love declared in the grave,
    your faithfulness(A) in Destruction[a]?
12 Are your wonders known in the place of darkness,
    or your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?

13 But I cry to you for help,(B) Lord;
    in the morning(C) my prayer comes before you.(D)
14 Why, Lord, do you reject(E) me
    and hide your face(F) from me?

15 From my youth(G) I have suffered(H) and been close to death;
    I have borne your terrors(I) and am in despair.(J)
16 Your wrath(K) has swept over me;
    your terrors(L) have destroyed me.
17 All day long they surround me like a flood;(M)
    they have completely engulfed me.
18 You have taken from me friend(N) and neighbor—
    darkness is my closest friend.
