Psalm 88:6 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 88.

2 May my prayer come before You; incline Your ear to my cry.

3 For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol.

4 I am counted among those descending to the Pit. I am like a man without strength.

5 I am forsaken among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom You remember no more, who are cut off from Your care.

6 You have laid me in the lowest Pit, in the darkest of the depths.

7 Your wrath weighs heavily upon me; all Your waves have submerged me. Selah

8 You have removed my friends from me; You have made me repulsive to them; I am confined and cannot escape.

9 My eyes grow dim with grief. I call to You daily, O LORD; I spread out my hands to You.

10 Do You work wonders for the dead? Do departed spirits rise up to praise You? Selah
