[a]Abandoned (A)among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You no longer remember,
And they are (B)cut off from Your hand.
You have put me in (C)the lowest pit,
In (D)dark places, in the (E)depths.
Your wrath (F)has rested upon me,
And You have afflicted me with (G)all Your waves. Selah

  1. Psalm 88:5 Lit A freed one among the dead

I am set apart with the dead,
    like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
    who are cut off(A) from your care.

You have put me in the lowest pit,
    in the darkest depths.(B)
Your wrath(C) lies heavily on me;
    you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[a](D)
