Psalm 88:17

God's Word

They swirl around me all day long like water. They surround me on all sides.

See the chapter Copy

The ropes of death became tangled around me. The horrors of the grave took hold of me. I experienced pain and agony.

Then the floodwaters would have swept us away. An ⌞overflowing⌟ stream would have washed us away.

Dogs have surrounded me. A mob has encircled me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

One deep sea calls to another at the roar of your waterspouts. All the whitecaps on your waves have swept over me.

The leaders of Judah are like those who move boundary markers. I will pour my fury on them like water.
