88:1

<
<A Song <07892>

[or] Psalm
<04210>

for the sons
<01121>

of Korah
<07141>_,

to the chief Musician
<05329> (8764)

upon Mahalath
<04257>

Leannoth
<06031> (8763)_,

Maschil
<04905> (8688)

of Heman
<01968>

the Ezrahite
<0250>.>>

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my salvation
<03444>_,

I have cried
<06817> (8804)

day
<03117>

[and] night
<03915>

before thee: {for the sons: or, of the sons} {Maschil...: or, A Psalm of Heman the Ezrahite, giving instruction}

88:2

Let my prayer
<08605>

come
<0935> (8799)

before
<06440>

thee: incline
<05186> (8685)

thine ear
<0241>

unto my cry
<07440>_;

88:3

For my soul
<05315>

is full
<07646> (8804)

of troubles
<07451>_:

and my life
<02416>

draweth nigh
<05060> (8689)

unto the grave
<07585>_.

88:4

I am counted
<02803> (8738)

with them that go down
<03381> (8802)

into the pit
<0953>_:

I am as a man
<01397>

[that hath] no strength
<0353>_:

88:5

Free
<02670>

among the dead
<04191> (8801)_,

like the slain
<02491>

that lie
<07901> (8802)

in the grave
<06913>_,

whom thou rememberest
<02142> (8804)

no more: and they are cut off
<01504> (8738)

from thy hand
<03027>_.

{from: or, by}

88:6

Thou hast laid
<07896> (8804)

me in the lowest
<08482>

pit
<0953>_,

in darkness
<04285>_,

in the deeps
<04688>_.
