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.
Nkunga bana ba Kole kuidi pfumu minyimbidi; bayimbidila mu flute. Nkunga Hemani muisi Ezilakite. A Yave, Nzambi yoyi yeti kuphukisa, muini ayi builu ndieti yamikina va ntualꞌaku.
2 Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry.
Bika lusambulu luama lutula va ntualꞌaku; balula dikutu diaku bu ndilembo yamikina.
Bila muelꞌama wufulukidi mu ziphasi ayi luzingu luama lufikimini tsi yi bafua. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no strength:
Ndidi mu ntanda wu batu bobo bankuenda ku diyilu ndieka banga mutu kambulu zingolo.
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.
Ndidi wuvuanda va ndambu lufua, banga batu bavondo; bobo badi baleka mu ku tsi bafua; bobo wunkambu buela tebukilanga moyo, bobo wusia buela bela mayindu ko.
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
Ngeyo wuthula mu dibulu dinneni, mu tombi kinkobo.
7 Thy fury lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all thy waves. (Selah)
Miangu miaku mimbuila ayi zitu midi Minu ndidiamusu kuidi ngeyo mu mayo maku moso.
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.
Ngeyo wuphambisa mu bakundi bama bakiluzolo ngeyo wukhitula kima ki khemi kuidi bawu. Ndidi wukangama ayi ndilendi baka bu tinina ko.
9 Mine eye consumeth by reason of affliction. Upon thee, Jehovah, have I called every day; I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
Meso mama meka mbumbuluka mu diambu di ziphasi; ngeyo ndintela; a Yave, kadika lumbu kuidi ngeyo ndinonuna mioko miama.
10 Wilt thou do wonders to the dead? shall the shades arise and praise thee? (Selah)
Wulenda kuaku monisa matsiminanga maku kuidi mutu wufua e? Bafua balenda fuluka ayi kuzitisa e?
11 Shall thy loving-kindness be declared in the grave? thy faithfulness in Destruction?
Balenda yolukila luzolo luaku mu tsi bafua ayi kikhuikizi kiaku mu mbivusu e?
12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Matsiminanga maku malenda zabakanga mu bibuangu bidi tombi voti mavanga maku masonga mu ntoto wowo batu bazimbakana mambu moso e?
13 But as for me, Jehovah, I cry unto thee, and in the morning my prayer cometh before thee.
Vayi minu kuidi ngeyo ndinyamikina mu tomba lusadusu, mu nsuka lusambulu luama lunkuiza va ntualꞌaku.
14 Why, O Jehovah, castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from me?
Bila mbi ngeyo Yave wundozidi e? Ayi bila mbi wulembo tsuekila zizi kiaku e?
15 I am afflicted and expiring from my youth up; I suffer thy terrors, [and] I am distracted.
Tona mu bumuana buama minu ndidi mu phasi ndidi wukangama mu lufua Ndimona ziphasi mu tsisi aku ayi ndieka wukambu diana.
16 Thy fierce anger hath gone over me; thy terrors have brought me to nought:
Miangu miaku mingolo mimbuididi tsisi aku yimbunga.
17 They have surrounded me all the day like water; they have compassed me about together.
Mu lumbu kimvimba yawu yinzungidila banga khuka nlangu yawu yitungu kumbina mvimba.
18 Lover and associate hast thou put far from me: my familiar friends are darkness.
Ngeyo mu bandiatanga yama ayi mu bakiluzolo bama tombi kiawu nkundi ama wukuikama.
