Psalm 88:15-18

New International Version

¹⁵ From my youth^(A) I have suffered^(B) and been close to death;
    I have borne your terrors^(C) and am in despair.^(D)
16 Your wrath^(E) has swept over me;
    your terrors^(F) have destroyed me.
¹⁷ All day long they surround me like a flood;^(G)
    they have completely engulfed me.
¹⁸ You have taken from me friend^(H) and neighbor—
    darkness is my closest friend.
