Psalms 88
1 “A song or psalm of the sons of Korach, to the chief musician upon Machalath-le'annoth, a Maskil of Heman the Ezrachite.” O Lord the God of my salvation, by day do I cry, [and] at night I am before thee.
[Psalm Lun Tulik Natul Korah; Ac Heman, Mwet Ezra] O LEUM GOD su langoeyu, nga wowoyak ac tung len fon, Ac ke fong nga tuku nu ye motom.
2 Let my prayer come unto thy presence; incline thy ear unto my entreaty.
Lohng pre luk, Lipsre tung luk in suk kasru!
Tuh mwe keok puspis putati nu fuk Ac nga apkuran in misa. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am counted with those that descend into the pit; I am become as a man without vigor:
Nga oana elos nukewa su apkuran in misa; Wanginla ku luk.
5 Free among the dead, like the slain that dwell in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more; and those that are cut off by thy hand.
Sisila nga inmasrlon mwet misa, Nga oana mwet su anwuki ac pukpuki in kulyuk uh — Oana elos su kom tiana sifil esam, Su kom fah tia ku in sifilpa kasru.
6 Thou hast laid me in the pit of the lower world, in darkness, in the depths.
Kom sisyula nu in lufin mas loallana, Nu in luf se su arulana lohsr ac loal.
7 Upon me lieth heavily thy fury, and with all thy billows hast thou afflicted me. (Selah)
Mulat lom putati toasr nu fuk Ac nga itungyuki ye noa in kasrkusrak lom.
8 Thou hast removed my acquaintances far from me; thou hast rendered me an abomination unto them: I am imprisoned, and I cannot go forth.
Kom oru tuh mwet kawuk luk in sisyula, Ac oru tuh nga in oana mwe srungayuk selos. Nga kauli ac tia ku in kaingkunla.
9 My eye languisheth by reason of affliction: I call on thee, O Lord, every day, I stretch out unto thee my hands.
Mutuk losrla ke keok luk, LEUM GOD, nga sralak pouk Ac pre nu sum len nukewa.
10 Wilt thou display wonders to the dead? shall the departed arise [and] thank thee? (Selah)
Ya kom ac oru ma sakirik usrnguk nu sin mwet misa? Ya elos ac tukakek ac kaksakin kom?
11 Shall thy kindness be related in the grave? thy faithfulness in the place of corruption?
Ya lungse kawil lom srumunyuk in kulyuk uh? Ya oaru lom srumunyuk ke acn in kunausten?
12 Shall thy wonders be acknowledged in the darkness? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Ya mwenmen lom liyeyuk in acn lohsr uh, Ku wo lom liyeyuk ke acn sin mwet mulkinyukla uh?
13 Yet I cry indeed aloud unto thee, O Lord; and in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.
LEUM GOD, nga pre nu sum in kasreyu. Nga pre nu sum ke lotutang nukewa.
14 Why, O Lord, wilt thou cast off my soul? [why] wilt thou hide thy face from me?
Efu ku kom sisyula, LEUM GOD? Efu ku kom ngetla likiyu?
15 I am afflicted and perishing from my youth up: I bear thy terrors, I am distracted.
Nga nuna keok ac apkuran nu ke misa e ke nga srikyak, Nga totola ke ma toasr su kom kaiyu kac.
16 Over me have the fires of thy wrath passed; thy terrors have destroyed me;
Mulat upa lom itungyuwi — Mwe aksangeng lom kunausyula.
17 They encompass me like water all the time; they have closed in round about me together.
Ma inge apinyula oana sronot ke len nufon, Ac kuhlusyuwi ke siska nukewa.
18 Thou hast removed far from me lover and friend, my acquaintances [are in] darkness.
Finne kawuk fototo luk, kom oru elos sisyula, Ac lohsr mukena pa nga liye uh.
