Psalms 88
1 A song of a Psalm for the sons of Core for the end, upon Maeleth for responsive [strains], of instruction for Aeman the Israelite. O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried by day and in the night before thee.
Orin. Saamu ti àwọn ọmọ Kora. Fún adarí orin. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti mahalati leannoti. Maskili ti Hemani ará Esra. Olúwa, Ọlọ́run tí ó gbà mí là, ní ọ̀sán àti ní òru, mo kígbe sókè sí Ọ.
2 Let my prayer come in before thee; incline thine ear to my supplication, O Lord.
Jẹ́ kí àdúrà mi kí ó wá sí iwájú rẹ; dẹ etí rẹ sí igbe mi.
Nítorí ọkàn mi kún fún ìpọ́njú ọkàn mi sì súnmọ́ isà òkú. (Sheol h7585)
4 I have been reckoned with them that go down to the pit; I became as a man without help;
A kà mí mọ́ àwọn tí wọ́n lọ sí ọ̀gbun ilẹ̀ èmi dàbí ọkùnrin tí kò ni agbára.
5 free among the dead, as the slain ones cast out, who sleep in the tomb; whom thou rememberest no more; and they are rejected from thy hand.
A yà mí sọ́tọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn òkú bí ẹni tí a pa tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ ní ipò ikú, ẹni tí ìwọ kò rántí mọ́, ẹni tí a gé kúrò lára àwọn tí ìwọ ń tọ́jú.
6 They laid me in the lowest pit, in dark [places], and in the shadow of death.
Ìwọ tí ó fi mí sí kòtò jíjìn, ní ibi ọ̀gbun tó ṣókùnkùn.
7 Thy wrath has pressed heavily upon me, and thou hast brought upon me all thy billows. (Pause)
Ìbínú rẹ ṣubú lé mi gidigidi; ìwọ ti fi àwọn ìjì rẹ borí mi.
8 Thou hast removed my acquaintance far from me; they have made me an abomination to themselves; I have been delivered up, and have not gone forth.
Ìwọ tí gba ọ̀rẹ́ mi tí ó súnmọ́ mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi ìwọ sì sọ mi di ìríra sí wọn. A há mi mọ́, èmi kò sì le è jáde;
9 Mine eyes are dimmed from poverty; but I cried to thee, O Lord, all the day; I spread forth my hands to thee.
ojú mi káàánú nítorí ìpọ́njú. Mo kígbe pè ọ́, Olúwa, ní gbogbo ọjọ́; mo na ọwọ́ mi jáde sí ọ.
10 Wilt thou work wonders for the dead? or shall physicians raise [them] up, that they shall praise thee?
Ìwọ ó fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ hàn fún òkú bi? Àwọn òkú yóò ha dìde láti yìn ọ́ bí?
11 Shall any one declare thy mercy in the tomb? and thy truth in destruction?
A ó ha fi ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ hàn ní ibojì bí, tàbí òtítọ́ rẹ ní ipò ìparun?
12 Shall thy wonders be known in darkness? and thy righteousness in a forgotten land?
A ha lè mọ iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ ní òkùnkùn bí àti òdodo rẹ ní ilẹ̀ ìgbàgbé?
13 But I cried to thee, O Lord; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.
Ṣùgbọ́n mo kígbe sí ọ fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, Olúwa; ní òwúrọ̀ ni àdúrà mí wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ.
14 Wherefore, O Lord, dost thou reject my prayer, [and] turn thy face away from me?
Olúwa, èéṣe tí ìwọ fi kọ̀ mí tí ìwọ fi ojú rẹ pamọ́ fún mi?
15 I am poor and in troubles from my youth; and having been exalted, I was brought low and into despair.
Láti ìgbà èwe mi, ìṣẹ́ ń ṣẹ́ mi, èmi múra àti kú; nígbà tí ẹ̀rù rẹ bá ń bà mí, èmi di gbére-gbère.
16 Thy wrath has passed over me; and thy terrors have greatly disquieted me.
Ìbínú rẹ ti kọjá lára mi; ìbẹ̀rù rẹ ti gé mi kúrò.
17 They compassed me like water; all the day they beset me together.
Ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ni wọn yí mi ká bí ìkún omi; wọ́n mù mí pátápátá.
18 Thou hast put far from me [every] friend, and mine acquaintances because of [my] wretchedness.
Ìwọ ti mú ọ̀rẹ́ àti olùfẹ́ mi kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi; òkùnkùn sì jẹ́ ọ̀rẹ́ tímọ́tímọ́ mi.
