O LORD, I cry out to you. I will keep on pleading day by day.
O LORD, why do you reject me? Why do you turn your face away from me?
I have been sickly and close to death since my youth.
I stand helpless and desperate before your terrors.
Your fierce anger has overwhelmed me. Your terrors have cut me off.
They swirl around me like floodwaters all day long.
They have encircled me completely.
You have taken away my companions and loved ones; only darkness remains.
Psalms 88 (New Living Translation)
