7 Your wrath lies heavy upon me,
And You have afflicted me with all aYour waves. Selah 
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; 
9 My eye wastes away because of affliction.
aLord, I have called daily upon You;
I have stretched out my hands to You. 
10 Will You work wonders for the dead?
Shall1 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?
