Psalms 88
1 A Song, a Psalm for the sons of Korah. To the chief Musician. Upon Mahalath Leannoth. An instruction. Of Heman the Ezrahite. Jehovah, God of my salvation, I have cried by day [and] in the night before thee.
Yon Chan. Yon Sòm a fis Koré yo Pou direktè Koral la; selon melodi “Soufrans Afliksyon An”. Yon refleksyon pa Héman, Ezrachit la O SENYÈ, Bondye sali mwen an, Mwen te kriye fò lajounen kon lannwit devan Ou.
2 Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry.
Kite priyè mwen vini devan Ou. Panche zòrèy Ou vè kri mwen an!
Paske nanm mwen gen kont twoub li. Lavi m vin toupre sejou lanmò a. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no strength:
Mwen vin konte pami (sila) ki desann nan fòs yo. Mwen parèt tankou yon nonm san fòs,
5 Prostrate among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave; whom thou rememberest no more, and who are cut off from thy hand.
abandone pami mò yo, tankou (sila) ki te touye e kouche nan tonm lan. (Sila) a nou pa sonje ankò menm, ki koupe retire nan men Ou.
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
Ou te mete m nan fòs pi ba a, nan plas fènwa yo, nan fon yo.
7 Thy fury lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all thy waves. (Selah)
Kòlè Ou vin poze sou mwen. Ou te aflije m ak tout vag lanmè Ou yo. Tan
8 Thou hast put my familiar friends far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
Ou te retire tout moun mwen konnen byen lwen m. Ou te fè m yon objè abominab devan yo. Mwen fèmen anndan nèt e mwen pa kab sòti.
9 Mine eye consumeth by reason of affliction. Upon thee, Jehovah, have I called every day; I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
Zye m gen tan pouri akoz afliksyon. Mwen te rele Ou chak jou, O SENYÈ. Mwen te lonje men m yo vè Ou menm.
10 Wilt thou do wonders to the dead? shall the shades arise and praise thee? (Selah)
Èske Ou va fè mirak pou mò yo? Èske lespri ki fin pati yo va leve pou bay Ou lwanj? Tan
11 Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? thy faithfulness in Destruction?
Èske lanmò dous Ou a va deklare nan tonbo a? Fidelite Ou nan labim nan?
12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Èske mirak Ou yo va fèt parèt nan tenèb la? Oswa ladwati Ou nan peyi kote tout bagay bliye yo?
13 But as for me, Jehovah, I cry unto thee, and in the morning my prayer cometh before thee.
Men anvè Ou, O SENYÈ, mwen te kriye. Nan maten, lapriyè mwen vini devan Ou.
14 Why, O Jehovah, castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from me?
O SENYÈ, poukisa Ou rejte nanm mwen? Poukisa Ou kache figi Ou kont mwen?
15 I am afflicted and expiring from my youth up; I suffer thy terrors, [and] I am distracted.
Mwen te aflije e prèt pou mouri depi nan jenès mwen. Pandan mwen soufri gwo laperèz Ou yo, mwen distrè nèt.
16 Thy fierce anger hath gone over me; thy terrors have brought me to nought:
Kòlè Ou ki brile, fin pase sou mwen. Gwo laperèz Ou yo te koupe retire m.
17 They have surrounded me all the day like water; they have compassed me about together.
Yo fin antoure mwen tankou dlo tout lajounen. Yo ansèkle m nèt.
18 Lover and associate hast thou put far from me: my familiar friends are darkness.
Ou te retire renmen mwen ak zanmi m nan lwen m nèt, ak zanmi m yo, nan tenèb.
