Psalms 88:13-18

Brenton(i) 13 (87:13) But I cried to thee, O Lord; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. 14 (87:14) Wherefore, O Lord, dost thou reject my prayer, and turn thy face away from me? 15 (87:15) I am poor and in troubles from my youth; and having been exalted, I was brought low and into despair. 16 (87:16) Thy wrath has passed over me; and thy terrors have greatly disquieted me. 17 (87:17) They compassed me like water; all the day they beset me together. 18 (87:18) Thou hast put far from me every friend, and mine acquaintances because of my wretchedness.
