[A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite.] Help Me O Lord!. Psalm 88(v87)שִׁיר מִזְמֹור לִבְנֵי קֹרַח לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־מָחֲלַת לְעַנֹּות מַשְׂכִּיל לְהֵימָן הָאֶזְרָחִי׃
1 O LORD, my God, I call for help by day;
I cry out in the night before thee.
 יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יְשׁוּעָתִי יֹום־צָעַקְתִּי בַלַּיְלָה נֶגְדֶּךָ׃
2 Let my prayer come before thee,
incline thy ear to my cry!
 תָּבֹוא לְפָנֶיךָ תְּפִלָּתִי הַטֵּה־אָזְנְךָ לְרִנָּתִי׃
3 For my soul is full of troubles,
and my life draws near to Sheol.
 כִּי־שָׂבְעָה בְרָעֹות נַפְשִׁי וְחַיַּי לִשְׁאֹול הִגִּיעוּ׃
4 I am reckoned among those who go down to the Pit;
I am a man who has no strength,
 נֶחְשַׁבְתִּי עִם־יֹורְדֵי בֹור הָיִיתִי כְּגֶבֶר אֵין־אֱיָל׃
5 like one forsaken among the dead,
like the slain that lie in the grave,
like those whom thou dost remember no more,
for they are cut off from thy hand.
 בַּמֵּתִים חָפְשִׁי כְּמֹו חֲלָלִים שֹׁכְבֵי קֶבֶר אֲשֶׁר לֹא זְכַרְתָּם עֹוד וְהֵמָּה מִיָּדְךָ נִגְזָרוּ׃
6 Thou hast put me in the depths of the Pit,
in the regions dark and deep.
 שַׁתַּנִי בְּבֹור תַּחְתִּיֹּות בְּמַחֲשַׁכִּים בִּמְצֹלֹות׃
7 Thy wrath lies heavy upon me,
and thou dost overwhelm me with all thy waves. [Selah]
 עָלַי סָמְכָה חֲמָתֶךָ וְכָל־מִשְׁבָּרֶיךָ עִנִּיתָ סֶּלָה׃
8 Thou hast caused my companions to shun me;
thou hast made me a thing of horror to them.
I am shut in so that I cannot escape;
 הִרְחַקְתָּ מְיֻדָּעַי מִמֶּנִּי שַׁתַּנִי תֹועֵבֹות לָמֹו כָּלֻא וְלֹא אֵצֵא׃
9 my eye grows dim through sorrow.
Every day I call upon thee, O LORD;
I spread out my hands to thee.
 עֵינִי דָאֲבָה מִנִּי עֹנִי קְרָאתִיךָ יְהוָה בְּכָל־יֹום שִׁטַּחְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ כַפָּי׃
10 Dost thou work wonders for the dead?
Do the shades rise up to praise thee? [Selah]
 הֲלַמֵּתִים תַּעֲשֶׂה־פֶּלֶא אִם־רְפָאִים יָקוּמוּ יֹודוּךָ סֶּלָה׃
11 Is thy steadfast love declared in the grave,
or thy faithfulness in Abaddon?
 הַיְסֻפַּר בַּקֶּבֶר חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמוּנָתְךָ בָּאֲבַדֹּון׃
12 Are thy wonders known in the darkness,
or thy saving help in the land of forgetfulness?
 הֲיִוָּדַע בַּחֹשֶׁךְ פִּלְאֶךָ וְצִדְקָתְךָ בְּאֶרֶץ נְשִׁיָּה׃
13 But I, O LORD, cry to thee;
in the morning my prayer comes before thee.
 וַאֲנִי אֵלֶיךָ יְהוָה שִׁוַּעְתִּי וּבַבֹּקֶר תְּפִלָּתִי תְקַדְּמֶךָּ׃
14 O LORD, why dost thou cast me off?
Why dost thou hide thy face from me?
 לָמָה יְהוָה תִּזְנַח נַפְשִׁי תַּסְתִּיר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי׃
15 Afflicted and close to death
from my youth up, I suffer thy terrors;
I am helpless.
 עָנִי אֲנִי וְגֹוֵעַ מִנֹּעַר נָשָׂאתִי אֵמֶיךָ אָפוּנָה׃
16 Thy wrath has swept over me;
thy dread assaults destroy me.
 עָלַי עָבְרוּ חֲרֹונֶיךָ בִּעוּתֶיךָ צִמְּתוּתֻנִי׃
17 They surround me like a flood all day long;
they close in upon me together.
 סַבּוּנִי כַמַּיִם כָּל־הַיֹּום הִקִּיפוּ עָלַי יָחַד׃
18 Thou hast caused lover and friend to shun me;
my companions are in darkness.
 הִרְחַקְתָּ מִמֶּנִּי אֹהֵב וָרֵעַ מְיֻדָּעַי מַחְשָׁךְ׃
