Psalms 88:7
Thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves - The figures in this verse seem to be taken from a tempest at sea. The storm is fierce, and the waves cover the ship.
5 1Adrift among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You remember no more,
And who are cut off from Your hand.
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You remember no more,
And who are cut off from Your hand.
8 aYou have1 put away my acquaintances far from me;
You have made me an abomination to them;
bI am shut up, and I cannot get out;
You have made me an abomination to them;
bI am shut up, and I cannot get out;
9 My eye wastes away because of affliction.
aLord, I have called daily upon You;
I have stretched out my hands to You.
aLord, I have called daily upon You;
I have stretched out my hands to You.
