< 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.
Ry Iehovà, Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañe ahiko, itoreovako handro an-kaleñe añatrefa’o,
2 Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry.
Ehe te hiatrek’ azo ty halaliko; atokilaño mb’amy fikaihakoy ty ravembia’o;
3 For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draweth nigh to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Fa losotse ty hasosoram-piaiko, vaho manòto-kibory ty haveloko. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no strength:
Volilieñe amo migodoñe mb’an-davak’ ao iraho; hoe ondaty nipitso-pañimba.
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.
Mihoriñe amo vilasio iraho, manahake o vinono mitsalalampatse an-kiborio, o tsy tiahi’o kañeo, o naito am-pità’oo.
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
Navotra’o ami’ty loho herakerak’ ao an-toe’e mimoromoroñe an-dalek’ ao.
7 Thy fury lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all thy waves. (Selah)
Napok’ amako o fifombo’oo, naho naniloke ahy o kinera’oo. Selà
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.
Fa naveve’o lavitse ahy o rañekoo, nampirihie’o ahiko. migoboñe atoan-draho tsy mahafiakatse;
9 Mine eye consumeth by reason of affliction. Upon thee, Jehovah, have I called every day; I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
Mitike amy hasotriakoy o masokoo. fa nikanjieko boak’andro, ry Iehovà; fa namelarako tañañe.
10 Wilt thou do wonders to the dead? shall the shades arise and praise thee? (Selah)
Hanoa’o raha tsitantane hao o loloo? Hitroatse hañandriañ’ Azo hao o angatseo? Selà
11 Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? thy faithfulness in Destruction?
Ho talilieñe an-donak’ ao hao ty fiferenaiña’o? an-tsikeokeok’ ao hao ty figahiña’o?
12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Hampahafohineñe am-pimoromoroñañe ao hao o halatsà’oo, naho an-tanem-pandikofañe ao hao ty havañona’o?
13 But as for me, Jehovah, I cry unto thee, and in the morning my prayer cometh before thee.
Aa naho izaho, ihe ry Iehovà ty itoreovako; mifanalaka ama’o boak’andro o halalikoo.
14 Why, O Jehovah, castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from me?
Ry Iehovà akore te farie’o ty fiaiko? Ino ty añetaha’o laharañ’ amako?
15 I am afflicted and expiring from my youth up; I suffer thy terrors, [and] I am distracted.
Nalovilovy ho nikenkan-draho ampara’ ty nahajalahy ahiko, fa nivavèko ty hetraketra’o, vaho voretra.
16 Thy fierce anger hath gone over me; thy terrors have brought me to nought:
Fa nandipotse ahy ty fifombo’o miforoforo; vaho fa nañito ahy ty firevendreveñañe ama’o.
17 They have surrounded me all the day like water; they have compassed me about together.
Niropak’ amako lomoñandro hoe rano, le nanaron-kohok’ ahy.
18 Lover and associate hast thou put far from me: my familiar friends are darkness.
Toe nampihankàñe’o amako ty mpikoko naho rañetse; atehenako ty hamoromoroñañe.
