Psalms 88:1--89:52

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>_.

88:7

Thy wrath
<02534>

lieth hard
<05564> (8804)

upon me, and thou hast afflicted
<06031> (8765)

[me] with all thy waves
<04867>_.

Selah
<05542>_.

88:8

Thou hast put away
<07368> (0)

mine acquaintance
<03045> (8794)

far
<07368> (8689)

from me; thou hast made
<07896> (8804)

me an abomination
<08441>

unto them: [I am] shut up
<03607> (8803)_,

and I cannot come forth
<03318> (8799)_.

88:9

Mine eye
<05869>

mourneth
<01669> (8804)

by reason of affliction
<06040>_:

LORD
<03068>_,

I have called
<07121> (8804)

daily
<03117>

upon thee, I have stretched out
<07849> (8765)

my hands
<03709>

unto thee.

88:10

Wilt thou shew
<06213> (8799)

wonders
<06382>

to the dead
<04191> (8801)_?

shall the dead
<07496>

arise
<06965> (8799)

[and] praise
<03034> (8686)

thee? Selah
<05542>_.

88:11

Shall thy lovingkindness
<02617>

be declared
<05608> (8792)

in the grave
<06913>_?

[or] thy faithfulness
<0530>

in destruction
<011>_?

88:12

Shall thy wonders
<06382>

be known
<03045> (8735)

in the dark
<02822>_?

and thy righteousness
<06666>

in the land
<0776>

of forgetfulness
<05388>_?

88:13

But unto thee have I cried
<07768> (8765)_,

O LORD
<03068>_;

and in the morning
<01242>

shall my prayer
<08605>

prevent
<06923> (8762)

thee.

88:14

LORD
<03068>_,

why castest thou off
<02186> (8799)

my soul
<05315>_?

[why] hidest
<05641> (8686)

thou thy face
<06440>

from me?

88:15

I [am] afflicted
<06041>

and ready to die
<01478> (8802)

from [my] youth
<05290>

up: [while] I suffer
<05375> (8804)

thy terrors
<0367>

I am distracted
<06323> (8799)_.

88:16

Thy fierce wrath
<02740>

goeth over
<05674> (8804)

me; thy terrors
<01161>

have cut me off
<06789> (8768)_.

88:17

They came round about
<05437> (8804)

me daily
<03117>

like water
<04325>_;

they compassed
<05362> (8689)

me about together
<03162>_.

{daily: or, all the day}

88:18

Lover
<0157> (8802)

and friend
<07453>

hast thou put far
<07368> (8689)

from me, [and] mine acquaintance
<03045> (8794)

into darkness
<04285>_.

89:1

<
<Maschil <04905> (8688)

of Ethan
<0387>

the Ezrahite
<0250>.>>

I will sing
<07891> (8799)

of the mercies
<02617>

of the LORD
<03068>

for ever
<05769>_:

with my mouth
<06310>

will I make known
<03045> (8686)

thy faithfulness
<0530>

to all
<01755>

generations
<01755>_.

{Maschil...: or, A Psalm for Ethan the Ezrahite, to give instruction} {to all...: Heb. to generation and generation}

89:2

For I have said
<0559> (8804)_,

Mercy
<02617>

shall be built up
<01129> (8735)

for ever
<05769>_:

thy faithfulness
<0530>

shalt thou establish
<03559> (8686)

in the very heavens
<08064>_.

89:3

I have made
<03772> (8804)

a covenant
<01285>

with my chosen
<0972>_,

I have sworn
<07650> (8738)

unto David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>_,

89:4

Thy seed
<02233>

will I establish
<03559> (8686)

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_,

and build up
<01129> (8804)

thy throne
<03678>

to all
<01755>

generations
<01755>_.

Selah
<05542>_.

89:5

And the heavens
<08064>

shall praise
<03034> (8686)

thy wonders
<06382>_,

O LORD
<03068>_:

thy faithfulness
<0530>

also in the congregation
<06951>

of the saints
<06918>_.

89:6

For who in the heaven
<07834>

can be compared
<06186> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_?

[who] among the sons
<01121>

of the mighty
<0410>

can be likened
<01819> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_?

89:7

God
<0410>

is greatly
<07227>

to be feared
<06206> (8737)

in the assembly
<05475>

of the saints
<06918>_,

and to be had in reverence
<03372> (8737)

of all [them that are] about
<05439>

him.

89:8

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

who [is] a strong
<02626>

LORD
<03050>

like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness
<0530>

round about
<05439>

thee?

89:9

Thou rulest
<04910> (8802)

the raging
<01348>

of the sea
<03220>_:

when the waves
<01530>

thereof arise
<07721> (8800)_,

thou stillest
<07623> (8762)

them.

89:10

Thou hast broken
<01792> (0)

Rahab
<07294>

in pieces
<01792> (8765)_,

as one that is slain
<02491>_;

thou hast scattered
<06340> (8765)

thine enemies
<0341> (8802)

with thy strong
<05797>

arm
<02220>_.

{Rahab: or, Egypt} {thy...: Heb. the arm of thy strength}

89:11

The heavens
<08064>

[are] thine, the earth
<0776>

also [is] thine: [as for] the world
<08398>

and the fulness
<04393>

thereof, thou hast founded
<03245> (8804)

them. {the fulness...: or, all it containeth}

89:12

The north
<06828>

and the south
<03225>

thou hast created
<01254> (8804)

them: Tabor
<08396>

and Hermon
<02768>

shall rejoice
<07442> (8762)

in thy name
<08034>_.

89:13

Thou hast a mighty
<01369>

arm
<02220>_:

strong
<05810> (8799)

is thy hand
<03027>_,

[and] high
<07311> (8799)

is thy right hand
<03225>_.

{a...: Heb. an arm with might}

89:14

Justice
<06664>

and judgment
<04941>

[are] the habitation
<04349>

of thy throne
<03678>_:

mercy
<02617>

and truth
<0571>

shall go
<06923> (8762)

before thy face
<06440>_.

{habitation: or, establishment}

89:15

Blessed
<0835>

[is] the people
<05971>

that know
<03045> (8802)

the joyful sound
<08643>_:

they shall walk
<01980> (8762)_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

in the light
<0216>

of thy countenance
<06440>_.

89:16

In thy name
<08034>

shall they rejoice
<01523> (8799)

all the day
<03117>_:

and in thy righteousness
<06666>

shall they be exalted
<07311> (8799)_.

89:17

For thou [art] the glory
<08597>

of their strength
<05797>_:

and in thy favour
<07522>

our horn
<07161>

shall be exalted
<07311> (8799) (8675) <07311> (8686)_.

89:18

For the LORD
<03068>

[is] our defence
<04043>_;

and the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>

[is] our king
<04428>_.

{the LORD...: or, our shield is of the LORD, and our king is of the Holy One of Israel}

89:19

Then thou spakest
<01696> (8765)

in vision
<02377>

to thy holy one
<02623>_,

and saidst
<0559> (8799)_,

I have laid
<07737> (8765)

help
<05828>

upon [one that is] mighty
<01368>_;

I have exalted
<07311> (8689)

[one] chosen
<0977> (8803)

out of the people
<05971>_.

89:20

I have found
<04672> (8804)

David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>_;

with my holy
<06944>

oil
<08081>

have I anointed
<04886> (8804)

him:

89:21

With whom my hand
<03027>

shall be established
<03559> (8735)_:

mine arm
<02220>

also shall strengthen
<0553> (8762)

him.

89:22

The enemy
<0341> (8802)

shall not exact
<05378> (8686)

upon him; nor the son
<01121>

of wickedness
<05766>

afflict
<06031> (8762)

him.

89:23

And I will beat down
<03807> (8804)

his foes
<06862>

before his face
<06440>_,

and plague
<05062> (8799)

them that hate
<08130> (8764)

him.
