88:16 Your anger overwhelms me; 1
your terrors destroy me.
88:17 They surround me like water all day long;
they join forces and encircle me. 2
88:18 You cause my friends and neighbors to keep their distance; 3
those who know me leave me alone in the darkness. 4
1 tn Heb “passes over me.”
2 tn Heb “they encircle me together.”
3 tn Heb “you cause to be far from me friend and neighbor.”
4 tn Heb “those known by me, darkness.”
