Salmos 88
Nueva Versión Internacional
Cántico. Salmo de los hijos de Coré. Al director musical. Según majalat leannot. Masquil de Hemán el ezraíta.
88 Señor, Dios de mi salvación,
día y noche clamo ante ti.
2 Que llegue hasta ti mi oración;
presta oído a mi súplica.
3 Tan colmado estoy de calamidades
que mi vida está al borde de la muerte.[a]
4 Ya me cuentan entre los que bajan a la fosa;
parezco un hombre que se quedó sin fuerzas.
5 Me han puesto aparte, entre los muertos;
parezco un cadáver que yace en el sepulcro,
de esos que tú ya no recuerdas,
porque fueron arrebatados de tu mano.
6 Me has echado en la fosa más profunda,
en el más tenebroso de los abismos.
7 El peso de tu enojo ha recaído sobre mí;
me has abrumado con tus olas. Selah
8 Me has quitado a todos mis amigos
y ante ellos me has hecho aborrecible.
Estoy aprisionado y no puedo librarme;
9 los ojos se me nublan de tristeza.
Yo, Señor, te invoco cada día
y hacia ti extiendo las manos.
10 ¿Acaso entre los muertos haces maravillas?
¿Pueden los muertos levantarse a darte gracias? Selah
11 ¿Acaso en el sepulcro se habla de tu gran amor
y de tu fidelidad en el abismo destructor?[b]
12 ¿Acaso en las tinieblas se conocen tus maravillas
o tu justicia en la tierra del olvido?
13 Yo, Señor, te ruego que me ayudes;
por la mañana mi oración llega ante tu presencia.
14 ¿Por qué me rechazas, Señor?
¿Por qué escondes de mí tu rostro?
15 Yo he sufrido desde mi juventud;
muy cerca he estado de la muerte.
Me has enviado terribles sufrimientos
y ya no puedo más.
16 Tu ira se ha descargado sobre mí;
tus violentos ataques han acabado conmigo.
17 Todo el día me rodean como un océano;
me han cercado por completo.
18 Me has quitado amigos y seres queridos;
ahora solo tengo amistad con las tinieblas.

88 En sång, en psalm av Koras söner; för sångmästaren, till Mahalat-leannót; en sång av esraiten Heman.
2 HERRE, min frälsnings Gud, dag och natt ropar jag inför dig.
3 Låt min bön komma inför ditt ansikte, böj ditt öra till mitt rop.
4 Ty min själ är mättad med lidanden, och mitt liv har kommit nära dödsriket.
5 Jag är aktad lik dem som hava farit ned i graven, jag är såsom en man utan livskraft.
6 Jag är övergiven bland de döda, lik de slagna som ligga i graven, dem på vilka du icke mer tänker, och som äro avskilda från din hand.
7 Ja, du har sänkt mig ned underst i graven, ned i mörkret, ned i djupet.
8 Den vrede vilar tung på mig, och alla dina böljors svall låter du gå över mig. Sela.
9 Du har drivit mina förtrogna långt bort ifrån mig; du har gjort mig till en styggelse för dem; jag ligger fången och kan icke komma ut.
10 Mitt öga förtvinar av lidande; HERRE, jag åkallar dig dagligen, jag uträcker mina händer till dig.
11 Gör du väl under för de döda, eller kunna skuggorna stå upp och tacka dig? Sela.
12 Förtäljer man i graven om din nåd, i avgrunden om din trofasthet?
13 Känner man i mörkret dina under, och din rättfärdighet i glömskans land?
14 Men jag ropar till dig, HERRE, och bittida kommer min bön dig till mötes.
15 Varför förkastar du, HERRE, min själ, varför döljer du ditt ansikte för mig?
16 Betryckt är jag och döende allt ifrån min ungdom; jag måste bära dina förskräckelser, så att jag är nära att förtvivla.
17 Din vredes lågor gå över mig, dina fasor förgöra mig.
18 De omgiva mig beständigt såsom vatten, de kringränna mig allasammans.
19 Du har drivit vän och frände långt bort ifrån mig; i mina förtrognas ställe har jag nu mörkret.

Psalm 88
New King James Version
A Prayer for Help in Despondency
A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. To the Chief Musician. Set to “Mahalath Leannoth.” A [a]Contemplation of (A)Heman the Ezrahite.
88 O Lord, (B)God of my salvation,
I have cried out day and night before You.
2 Let my prayer come before You;
[b]Incline Your ear to my cry.
3 For my soul is full of troubles,
And my life (C)draws near to the grave.
4 I am counted with those who (D)go[c] down to the pit;
(E)I am like a man who has no strength,
5 [d]Adrift among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You remember no more,
And who are cut off from Your hand.
6 You have laid me in the lowest pit,
In darkness, in the depths.
7 Your wrath lies heavy upon me,
And You have afflicted me with all (F)Your waves. Selah
8 (G)You have [e]put away my acquaintances far from me;
You have made me an abomination to them;
(H)I am shut up, and I cannot get out;
9 My eye wastes away because of affliction.
(I)Lord, I have called daily upon You;
I have stretched out my hands to You.
10 Will You work wonders for the dead?
Shall [f]the dead arise and praise You? Selah
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 [g]cut me off.
17 They came around me all day long like water;
They engulfed me altogether.
18 (J)Loved one and friend You have put far from me,
And my acquaintances into darkness.

Psalm 88[a]
A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. For the director of music. According to mahalath leannoth.[b] A maskil[c] of Heman the Ezrahite.
1 Lord, you are the God who saves me;(A)
day and night I cry out(B) to you.
2 May my prayer come before you;
turn your ear to my cry.
3 I am overwhelmed with troubles(C)
and my life draws near to death.(D)
4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit;(E)
I am like one without strength.(F)
5 I am set apart with the dead,
like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
who are cut off(G) from your care.
6 You have put me in the lowest pit,
in the darkest depths.(H)
7 Your wrath(I) lies heavily on me;
you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[d](J)
8 You have taken from me my closest friends(K)
and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined(L) and cannot escape;(M)
9 my eyes(N) are dim with grief.
I call(O) to you, Lord, every day;
I spread out my hands(P) to you.
10 Do you show your wonders to the dead?
Do their spirits rise up and praise you?(Q)
11 Is your love declared in the grave,
your faithfulness(R) in Destruction[e]?
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,(S) Lord;
in the morning(T) my prayer comes before you.(U)
14 Why, Lord, do you reject(V) me
and hide your face(W) from me?
15 From my youth(X) I have suffered(Y) and been close to death;
I have borne your terrors(Z) and am in despair.(AA)
16 Your wrath(AB) has swept over me;
your terrors(AC) have destroyed me.
17 All day long they surround me like a flood;(AD)
they have completely engulfed me.
18 You have taken from me friend(AE) and neighbor—
darkness is my closest friend.
