Psalm 88:8 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 88.

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

11 Can Your loving devotion be proclaimed in the grave, Your faithfulness in Abaddon?

12 Will Your wonders be known in the darkness, or Your righteousness in the land of oblivion?
