Psalms 88:4


← Psalms 88:3 Psalms 88:4 (KJV) Psalms 88:5 →
For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.
I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength:
Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.
