Psalms 88:12-18 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

12. Will Your wonders be known in the darknessor Your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

13. But I call to You for help, Lord;in the morning my prayer meets You.

14. Lord, why do You reject me? Why do You hide Your face from me?

15. From my youth,I have been afflicted and near death.I suffer Your horrors; I am desperate.

16. Your wrath sweeps over me;Your terrors destroy me.

17. They surround me like water all day long;they close in on me from every side.

18. You have distanced loved one and neighbor from me;darkness is my only friend.
