Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 88:7

"Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, And thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah" — Psalms 88:7 (ASV)

And you have afflicted. —Literally, And you have pressed (me) down with all your breakers, supplying the object, and taking the accusative in the text as the instrument, as in Psalms 102:23, where the same verb is used (Authorised Version, “weakened”).
