Selah.\n \n8\u00a0Thou 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.\n \n9\u00a0Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.\n \n10\u00a0Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.\n \n11\u00a0Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction?\n \n12\u00a0Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?\n \n13\u00a0But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.\n \n14\u00a0LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?\n \n15\u00a0I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.\n \n16\u00a0Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.\n \n17\u00a0They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together.\n \n18\u00a0Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.","title":"King James Version: Psalms: Psalms Chapter 88","type":"page"}
