CHAPTER 88
Psalms 88:1
1 A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon
Mahalath
Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my salvation, I
have
cried day and night before thee:
Psalms 88:2
2 Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;
Psalms 88:3
3 For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the
grave.
Psalms 88:4
4 I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that
hath
no strength:
Psalms 88:5
5 Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou
rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.
Psalms 88:6
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
Psalms 88:7
7 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy
waves. Selah.
Psalms 88:8
8 Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an
abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
Psalms 88:9
9 Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily
upon
thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
Psalms 88:10
10 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise
thee?
Selah.
Psalms 88:11
11 Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness
in
destruction?
Psalms 88:12
12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the
land
of forgetfulness?
Psalms 88:13
13 But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer
prevent thee.
Psalms 88:14
14 LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?
Psalms 88:15
15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy
terrors I am distracted.
Psalms 88:16
16 Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
Psalms 88:17
17 They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about
together.
Psalms 88:18
18 Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into
darkness.

shalt
thou establish in the very heavens.

servant,

generations. Selah.
Psalms 89:5
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also
in
the congregation of the saints.
Psalms 89:6
6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons
of
the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

in reverence of all them that are about him.
Psalms 89:8

faithfulness round about thee?

stillest them.

shall they be exalted.

shall be exalted.
Psalms 89:18
18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
Psalms 89:19
19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid
help
upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
Psalms 89:20
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
Psalms 89:21
21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen
him.
Psalms 89:22
22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict
him.
Psalms 89:23
23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that
hate
him.
Psalms 89:24
24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name
shall
his horn be exalted.
Psalms 89:25
25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
Psalms 89:26

salvation.

fast with him.

29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the
days
of heaven.
Psalms 89:30
30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
Psalms 89:31
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
Psalms 89:32
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity
with stripes.
Psalms 89:33
33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor
suffer my faithfulness to fail.

my
lips.

in heaven. Selah.

anointed.

holds
to ruin.

stand in the battle.

ground.

shame. Selah.

like fire?
Psalms 89:47
47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in
vain?
Psalms 89:48
48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver
his
soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

David in thy truth?
Psalms 89:50

4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past,
and as a watch in the night.
