Psalms 88:10 Context
8Thou hast put away mine acquaintance farre from mee: thou hast made me an abomination vnto them: I am shut vp, and I cannot come forth. 9Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction, Lord, I haue called daily vpon thee: I haue stretched out my hands vnto thee. 10Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shal the dead arise and praise thee? Selah. 11Shall thy louing kindnesse be declared in the graue? or thy faithfulnesse in destruction? 12Shall thy wonders be knowen in the darke? and thy righteousnesse in the land of forgetfulnesse?
