Psalm 88 is the 88th psalm of the Book of Psalms, beginning in English in the King James Version: "O L ORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee". In the slightly different numbering system used in the Greek Septuagint and Latin Vulgate translations of the Bible, this psalm is Psalm 87 .
Heman the Ezrahite (Hebrew: הֵימָן הָאֶזְרָחִי Hēmān hā’Ezrāḥī) is the author of Psalm 88 in the Hebrew Bible, according to the Psalm's colophon. B. Bava Batra connects the name Heman to the semitic root אמנ ( ʔ-m-n ) meaning "trusted," [ 1 ] while CYDA speculates it is from נתן ( n-t-n ) and means "given."

Psalms 1, 2, 6, 8, 12, and 14 have concluding formulae (e.g., on the victorious return of Light) that are similar to the Mandaean ʿniana ("response") prayers, which are Qulasta prayers 78–103. Psalm 2 has parallels with Hymn 15 in Book 3 of the Left Ginza (both have "trembling demons" that were defeated).
