Psalm 18:5-6
New American Standard Bible
5 The (A)ropes of [a]Sheol surrounded me;
The snares of death confronted me.
6 In my (B)distress I called upon the Lord,
And cried to my God for help;
He heard my voice (C)from His temple,
And my (D)cry for help before Him came into His ears.

88 Lord, the (A)God of my salvation,
I have (B)cried out by day and in the night before You.

(D)Incline Your ear to my cry!
3 For my (E)soul has [c]had enough troubles,

I have become like a man (H)without strength,
5 [e]Abandoned (I)among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You no longer remember,
And they are (J)cut off from Your hand.
6 You have put me in (K)the lowest pit,
In (L)dark places, in the (M)depths.
7 Your wrath (N)has rested upon me,
And You have afflicted me with (O)all Your waves. Selah
