Psalms 88 Cross References - ASV

¹ A Song, a Psalm of the sons of Korah; for the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath Leannoth. Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite.

O Jehovah, the God of my salvation,
I have cried day and night before thee. ² Let my prayer enter into thy presence;
Incline thine ear unto my cry. ³ For my soul is full of troubles,
And my life draweth nigh unto Sheol. ⁴ I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit;
I am as a man that hath no help, ⁵ Cast off among the dead,
Like the slain that lie in the grave,
Whom thou rememberest no more,
And they are cut off from thy hand. ⁶ Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit,
In dark places, in the deeps. ⁷ Thy wrath lieth hard upon me,
And thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. [Selah ⁸ Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me;
Thou hast made me an abomination unto them:
I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. ⁹ Mine eye wasteth away by reason of affliction:
I have called daily upon thee, O Jehovah;
I have spread forth my hands unto thee. ¹⁰ Wilt thou show wonders to the dead?
Shall they that are deceased arise and praise thee? [Selah ¹¹ Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave?
Or thy faithfulness in Destruction? ¹² Shall thy wonders be known in the dark?
And thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? ¹³ But unto thee, O Jehovah, have I cried;
And in the morning shall my prayer come before thee. ¹⁴ Jehovah, why castest thou off my soul?
Why hidest thou thy face from me? ¹⁵ I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up:
While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. ¹⁶ Thy fierce wrath is gone over me;
Thy terrors have cut me off. ¹⁷ They came round about me like water all the day long;
They compassed me about together. ¹⁸ Lover and friend hast thou put far from me,
And mine acquaintance into darkness.

¹⁸ I have waited for thy salvation, O Jehovah.

³¹ For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all the nations round about.

Even the God who is our salvation. [Selah

And all my calamity laid in the balances! ³ For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas:

And his life to the destroyers.

¹¹ Be not far from me; for trouble is near;
For there is none to help. ¹² Many bulls have compassed me;
Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. ¹³ They gape upon me with their mouth,
[As] a ravening and a roaring lion. ¹⁴ I am poured out like water,
And all my bones are out of joint:
My heart is like wax;
It is melted within me. ¹⁵ My strength is dried up like a potsherd;
And my tongue cleaveth to my jaws;
And thou hast brought me into the dust of death. ¹⁶ For dogs have compassed me:
A company of evil-doers have inclosed me;
They pierced my hands and my feet. ¹⁷ I may count all my bones.
They look and stare upon me; ¹⁸ They part my garments among them,
And upon my vesture do they cast lots. ¹⁹ But be not thou far off, O Jehovah:
O thou my succor, haste thee to help me. ²⁰ Deliver my soul from the sword,
My darling from the power of the dog. ²¹ Save me from the lion's mouth;
Yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.

¹⁷ And hide not thy face from thy servant;
For I am in distress; answer me speedily. ¹⁸ Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it:
Ransom me because of mine enemies. ¹⁹ Thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor:
Mine adversaries are all before thee. ²⁰ Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness:
And I looked for some to take pity, but there was none;
And for comforters, but I found none. ²¹ They gave me also gall for my food;
And in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

² In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord:
My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not;
My soul refused to be comforted.

¹⁴ Jehovah, why castest thou off my soul?
Why hidest thou thy face from me? ¹⁵ I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up:
While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

¹⁸ Their soul abhorreth all manner of food;
And they draw near unto the gates of death.

Their soul melteth away because of trouble.

³ For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;
He hath smitten my life down to the ground:
He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead. ⁴ Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me;
My heart within me is desolate.

³ He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.

¹⁰ Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand. ¹¹ He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.

¹⁵ He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath sated me with wormwood. ¹⁶ He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones; he hath covered me with ashes. ¹⁷ And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace; I forgat prosperity. ¹⁸ And I said, My strength is perished, and mine expectation from Jehovah.
¹⁹ Remember mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

³⁷ And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and sore troubled. ³⁸ Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: abide ye here, and watch with me. ³⁹ And he went forward a little, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass away from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.

³³ And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly amazed, and sore troubled. ³⁴ And he saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful even unto death: abide ye here, and watch.

¹ My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct,
The grave is [ready] for me.

¹ [A Psalm] of David.

Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call:
My rock, be not thou deaf unto me;
Lest, if thou be silent unto me,
I become like them that go down into the pit.

⁹ What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit?
Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

¹² I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind:
I am like a broken vessel.

²² For I am poor and needy,
And my heart is wounded within me. ²³ I am gone like the shadow when it declineth:
I am tossed up and down as the locust. ²⁴ My knees are weak through fasting;
And my flesh faileth of fatness.

⁷ Make haste to answer me, O Jehovah; my spirit faileth:
Hide not thy face from me,
Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.

¹⁷ Behold, [it was] for [my] peace [that] I had great bitterness:
But thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption;
For thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back. ¹⁸ For Sheol cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee:
They that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.

²⁰ then will I bring thee down with them that descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make thee to dwell in the nether parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living:

⁶ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains;
The earth with its bars [closed] upon me for ever:
Yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.

⁶ For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.

⁹ yea, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead:

⁴ for he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you.

¹ And God remembered Noah, and all the beasts, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged;

²⁹ And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the Plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.

⁹ Even that it would please God to crush me;
That he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!

¹⁰ If he pass through, and shut up,
And call unto judgment, then who can hinder him?

²² As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes:
Nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications,
When I cried unto thee.

¹⁶ Thy fierce wrath is gone over me;
Thy terrors have cut me off.

²³ Who remembered us in our low estate;
For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever;

⁹ Sheol from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming; it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. ¹⁰ All they shall answer and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us? ¹¹ Thy pomp is brought down to Sheol, [and] the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and worms cover thee.
¹² How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, that didst lay low the nations!

¹⁰ I said, In the noontide of my days I shall go into the gates of Sheol:
I am deprived of the residue of my years. ¹¹ I said, I shall not see Jehovah, [even] Jehovah in the land of the living:
I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world. ¹² My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me as a shepherd's tent:
I have rolled up, like a weaver, my life; he will cut me off from the loom:
From day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.

⁸ By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who [among them] considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke [was due]?

¹⁸ Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit. ¹⁹ Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised. ²⁰ They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword; draw her away and all her multitudes. ²¹ The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of Sheol with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie still, even the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.
²² Asshur is there and all her company; her graves are round about her; all of them slain, fallen by the sword; ²³ whose graves are set in the uttermost parts of the pit, and her company is round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who caused terror in the land of the living.
²⁴ There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living, and have borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. ²⁵ They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude; her graves are round about her; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for their terror was caused in the land of the living, and they have borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of them that are slain.
²⁶ There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude; their graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for they caused their terror in the land of the living. ²⁷ And they shall not lie with the mighty that are fallen of the uncircumcised, that are gone down to Sheol with their weapons of war, and have laid their swords under their heads, and their iniquities are upon their bones; for [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. ²⁸ But thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with them that are slain by the sword.
²⁹ There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who in their might are laid with them that are slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit. ³⁰ There are the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Sidonians, who are gone down with the slain; in the terror which they caused by their might they are put to shame; and they lie uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
³¹ Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword, saith the Lord Jehovah. ³² For I have put his terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord Jehovah.

²² For a fire is kindled in mine anger,
And burneth unto the lowest Sheol,
And devoureth the earth with its increase,
And setteth on fire the foundations of the mountains.

² He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay;
And he set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

¹⁵ Let not the waterflood overwhelm me,
Neither let the deep swallow me up;
And let not the pit shut its mouth upon me.

¹³ For great is thy lovingkindness toward me;
And thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.

¹ A Song of Ascents.

Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.

³ For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;
He hath smitten my life down to the ground:
He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.

¹⁹ The way of the wicked is as darkness:
They know not at what they stumble.

² He hath led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.

⁵⁵ I called upon thy name, O Jehovah, out of the lowest dungeon.

⁴⁶ I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me may not abide in the darkness.

⁶ And angels that kept not their own principality, but left their proper habitation, he hath kept in everlasting bonds under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

¹³ wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness hath been reserved for ever.

⁴ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me,
The poison whereof my spirit drinketh up:
The terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

¹⁶ And if [my head] exalt itself, thou huntest me as a lion;
And again thou showest thyself marvellous upon me.

⁴ For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me:
My moisture was changed [as] with the drought of summer. [Selah

¹ A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.

O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thy wrath;
Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

⁷ Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterfalls:
All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.

⁷ For we are consumed in thine anger,
And in thy wrath are we troubled.

¹⁰ Because of thine indignation and thy wrath:
For thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.

³ For thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas,
And the flood was round about me;
All thy waves and thy billows passed over me.

³⁶ He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.

⁵ but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶ who will render to every man according to his works: ⁷ to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life: ⁸ but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, [shall be] wrath and indignation, ⁹ tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek;

²⁴ who his own self bare our sins in his body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.

¹⁶ and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: ¹⁷ for the great day of their wrath is come; and who is able to stand?

¹⁸ And they two made a covenant before Jehovah: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
¹⁹ Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert? ²⁰ Now therefore, O king, come down, according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him up into the king's hand.

¹⁴ Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again;
He shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

⁸ He hath walled up my way that I cannot pass,
And hath set darkness in my paths.

¹³ He hath put my brethren far from me,
And mine acquaintance are wholly estranged from me. ¹⁴ My kinsfolk have failed,
And my familiar friends have forgotten me. ¹⁵ They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger;
I am an alien in their sight. ¹⁶ I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer,
[Though] I entreat him with my mouth. ¹⁷ My breath is strange to my wife,
And my supplication to the children of mine own mother. ¹⁸ Even young children despise me;
If I arise, they speak against me. ¹⁹ All my familiar friends abhor me,
And they whom I loved are turned against me.

¹⁰ They abhor me, they stand aloof from me,
And spare not to spit in my face.

¹¹ Because of all mine adversaries I am become a reproach,
Yea, unto my neighbors exceedingly,
And a fear to mine acquaintance:
They that did see me without fled from me.

¹⁸ Lover and friend hast thou put far from me,
And mine acquaintance into darkness.

⁴ Look on [my] right hand, and see;
For there is no man that knoweth me:
Refuge hath failed me;
No man careth for my soul.

⁴ Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me;
My heart within me is desolate.

⁷ Thus saith Jehovah, the Redeemer of Israel, [and] his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers: Kings shall see and arise; princes, and they shall worship; because of Jehovah that is faithful, [even] the Holy One of Israel, who hath chosen thee.

³ I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment.

² Now at that time the king of Babylon's army was besieging Jerusalem; and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judah's house.

⁷ He hath walled me about, that I cannot go forth; he hath made my chain heavy. ⁸ Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shutteth out my prayer. ⁹ He hath walled up my ways with hewn stone; he hath made my paths crooked.

⁸ And I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.

²¹ But the governor answered and said unto them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas. ²² Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do unto Jesus who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified. ²³ And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be crucified.
²⁴ So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye [to it]. ²⁵ And all the people answered and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that, if any man knew where he was, he should show it, that they might take him.

²³ He that hateth me hateth my Father also. ²⁴ If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

¹³ If thou set thy heart aright,
And stretch out thy hands toward him;

²⁰ My friends scoff at me:
[But] mine eye poureth out tears unto God,

⁷ Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow,
And all my members are as a shadow.

⁷ Mine eye wasteth away because of grief;
It waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.

¹⁰ My heart throbbeth, my strength faileth me:
As for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

³ My tears have been my food day and night,
While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

²⁰ If we have forgotten the name of our God,
Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;

¹⁷ Evening, and morning, and at noonday, will I complain, and moan;
And he will hear my voice.

³¹ Princes shall come out of Egypt;
Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.

¹ A Song, a Psalm of the sons of Korah; for the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath Leannoth. Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite.

O Jehovah, the God of my salvation,
I have cried day and night before thee.

⁹ For I have eaten ashes like bread,
And mingled my drink with weeping,

⁶ I spread forth my hands unto thee:
My soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a weary land. [Selah

⁴⁸ Mine eye runneth down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people. ⁴⁹ Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,

¹¹ Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

³⁵ Jesus wept.

⁷ For there is hope of a tree,
If it be cut down, that it will sprout again,
And that the tender branch thereof will not cease. ⁸ Though the root thereof wax old in the earth,
And the stock thereof die in the ground; ⁹ Yet through the scent of water it will bud,
And put forth boughs like a plant. ¹⁰ But man dieth, and is laid low:
Yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? ¹¹ [As] the waters fail from the sea,
And the river wasteth and drieth up; ¹² So man lieth down and riseth not:
Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake,
Nor be roused out of their sleep.

⁵ For in death there is no remembrance of thee:
In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?

¹⁷ The dead praise not Jehovah,
Neither any that go down into silence;

¹⁷ I shall not die, but live,
And declare the works of Jehovah.

¹⁹ Thy dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust; for thy dew is [as] the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast forth the dead.

¹⁸ For Sheol cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee:
They that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. ¹⁹ The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day:
The father to the children shall make known thy truth.

¹ The hand of Jehovah was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Jehovah, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. ² And he caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. ³ And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord Jehovah, thou knowest. ⁴ Again he said unto me, Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of Jehovah. ⁵ Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. ⁶ And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
⁷ So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and, behold, an earthquake; and the bones came together, bone to its bone. ⁸ And I beheld, and, lo, there were sinews upon them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them. ⁹ Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. ¹⁰ So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
¹¹ Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. ¹² Therefore prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel. ¹³ And ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, O my people. ¹⁴ And I will put my Spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and ye shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken it and performed it, saith Jehovah.

³⁵ While he yet spake, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's [house] saying, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Teacher any further? ³⁶ But Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.

¹² Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, there was carried out one that was dead, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her. ¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. ¹⁴ And he came nigh and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise. ¹⁵ And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother. ¹⁶ And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is arisen among us: and, God hath visited his people.

⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. ⁵³ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. ⁵⁴ But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. ⁵⁵ O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? ⁵⁶ The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law: ⁵⁷ but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

³⁰ That the evil man is reserved to the day of calamity?
That they are led forth to the day of wrath?

⁶ Sheol is naked before [God],
And Abaddon hath no covering.

²³ But thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction:
Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days;
But I will trust in thee.

¹⁸ Surely thou settest them in slippery places:
Thou castest them down to destruction.

¹¹ Sheol and Abaddon are before Jehovah:
How much more then the hearts of the children of men!

¹³ Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby.

²² What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction:

¹ But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

²¹ Before I go whence I shall not return,
[Even] to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death; ²² The land dark as midnight,
[The land] of the shadow of death, without any order,
And where the light is as midnight.

⁵ Cast off among the dead,
Like the slain that lie in the grave,
Whom thou rememberest no more,
And they are cut off from thy hand.

¹⁶ For of the wise man, even as of the fool, there is no remembrance for ever; seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. And how doth the wise man die even as the fool!

¹⁰ So I saw the wicked buried, and they came [to the grave]; and they that had done right went away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city: this also is vanity.

⁵ For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

²² and they shall look unto the earth, and behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish; and into thick darkness [they shall be] driven away.

¹² but the sons of the kingdom shall be cast forth into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.}

³ O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice;
In the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep watch.

² O Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

¹⁴⁷ I anticipated the dawning of the morning, and cried:
I hoped in thy words. ¹⁴⁸ Mine eyes anticipated the night-watches,
That I might meditate on thy word.

³⁵ And in the morning, a great while before day, he rose up and went out, and departed into a desert place, and there prayed.

²⁴ Wherefore hidest thou thy face,
And holdest me for thine enemy?

¹ For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever?
How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

² For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off?
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

⁹ But now thou hast cast [us] off, and brought us to dishonor,
And goest not forth with our hosts.

²⁴ Wherefore hidest thou thy face,
And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

¹⁷ And hide not thy face from thy servant;
For I am in distress; answer me speedily.

⁷ Will the Lord cast off for ever?
And will he be favorable no more? ⁸ Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever?
Doth his promise fail for evermore? ⁹ Hath God forgotten to be gracious?
Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? [Selah

⁴⁶ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

¹¹ Therefore I will not refrain my mouth;
I will speak in the anguish of my spirit;
I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. ¹² Am I a sea, or a sea-monster,
That thou settest a watch over me? ¹³ When I say, My bed shall comfort me,
My couch shall ease my complaint; ¹⁴ Then thou scarest me with dreams,
And terrifiest me through visions: ¹⁵ So that my soul chooseth strangling,
And death rather than [these] my bones. ¹⁶ I loathe [my life]; I would not live alway:
Let me alone; for my days are vanity.

¹¹ My days are past, my purposes are broken off,
Even the thoughts of my heart. ¹² They change the night into day:
The light, [say they], is near unto the darkness. ¹³ If I look for Sheol as my house;
If I have spread my couch in the darkness; ¹⁴ If I have said to corruption, Thou art my father;
To the worm, [Thou art] my mother, and my sister; ¹⁵ Where then is my hope?
And as for my hope, who shall see it? ¹⁶ It shall go down to the bars of Sheol,
When once there is rest in the dust.

¹⁴ I am poured out like water,
And all my bones are out of joint:
My heart is like wax;
It is melted within me. ¹⁵ My strength is dried up like a potsherd;
And my tongue cleaveth to my jaws;
And thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued,
And chastened every morning.

¹⁰ Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.

⁷ Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith Jehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn my hand upon the little ones.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.

¹ A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.

O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thy wrath;
Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. ² For thine arrows stick fast in me,
And thy hand presseth me sore.

⁴⁶ How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou hide thyself for ever?
[How long] shall thy wrath burn like fire?

¹¹ Who knoweth the power of thine anger,
And thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto thee?

⁴ Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. ⁵ But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. ⁶ All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

²⁶ And after the threescore and two weeks shall the anointed one be cut off, and shall have nothing: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and even unto the end shall be war; desolations are determined.

³² He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?

¹³ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

¹⁷ for the great day of their wrath is come; and who is able to stand?

¹² I was at ease, and he brake me asunder;
Yea, he hath taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces:
He hath also set me up for his mark. ¹³ His archers compass me round about;
He cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare;
He poureth out my gall upon the ground.

¹⁴ As through a wide breach they come:
In the midst of the ruin they roll themselves [upon me]. ¹⁵ Terrors are turned upon me;
They chase mine honor as the wind;
And my welfare is passed away as a cloud.

¹⁶ For dogs have compassed me:
A company of evil-doers have inclosed me;
They pierced my hands and my feet.

¹ For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim. [A Psalm] of David.

Save me, O God;
For the waters are come in unto my soul. ² I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing:
I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

³ The cords of death compassed me,
And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me:
I found trouble and sorrow.

¹⁰ All nations compassed me about:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off. ¹¹ They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off. ¹² They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.

⁴ Then the waters had overwhelmed us,
The stream had gone over our soul;

⁵ He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail. ⁶ He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead. ⁷ He hath walled me about, that I cannot go forth; he hath made my chain heavy.

³⁹ And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, ⁴⁰ and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross. ⁴¹ In like manner also the chief priests mocking [him], with the scribes and elders, said, ⁴² He saved others; himself he cannot save. He is the King of Israel; let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him. ⁴³ He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God. ⁴⁴ And the robbers also that were crucified with him cast upon him the same reproach.

¹² His troops come on together,
And cast up their way against me,
And encamp round about my tent.
¹³ He hath put my brethren far from me,
And mine acquaintance are wholly estranged from me. ¹⁴ My kinsfolk have failed,
And my familiar friends have forgotten me. ¹⁵ They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger;
I am an alien in their sight.

¹¹ My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague;
And my kinsmen stand afar off.

⁸ Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me;
Thou hast made me an abomination unto them:
I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
