Psalm 87
Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song.
His foundation is in the mountains of holiness. Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion more than all the habitations of Jacob. Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon among them that know me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: this man was born there. 5And of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her. 6Jehovah will count, when he inscribeth the peoples, This man was born there. Selah. 7As well the singers as the dancers shall say, All my springs are in thee.
Psalm 88
A Song, a Psalm for the sons of Korah. To the chief Musician. Upon Mahalath Leannoth. An instruction. Of Heman the Ezrahite.
Jehovah, God of my salvation, I have cried by day and in the night before thee. Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry. For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draweth nigh to Sheol. I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no strength: Prostrate among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave; whom thou rememberest no more, and who are cut off from thy hand. Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps. Thy fury lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah. Thou hast put my familiar friends far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. Mine eye consumeth by reason of affliction. Upon thee, Jehovah, have I called every day; I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
10Wilt thou do wonders to the dead? shall the shades arise and praise thee? Selah. 11Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? thy faithfulness in Destruction? 12Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? 13But as for me, Jehovah, I cry unto thee, and in the morning my prayer cometh before thee. 14Why, O Jehovah, castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? 15I am afflicted and expiring from my youth up; I suffer thy terrors, and I am distracted. 16Thy fierce anger hath gone over me; thy terrors have brought me to nought: 17They have surrounded me all the day like water; they have compassed me about together. 18Lover and associate hast thou put far from me: my familiar friends are darkness.
