Psalms 88
1 A Song, a Psalm of the sons of Korah; for the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath Leannoth. Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:
E IEHOVA, ke Akua o ko'u ola, Ua kahea aku no au imua ou i ke ao a me ka po.
2 Let my prayer enter into thy presence; incline thine ear unto my cry:
E hookomo aku i ka'u pule imua ou; E haliu mai hoi kou pepeiao i ka'u kahea ana.
No ka mea, ua ana ko'u uhane i na popilikia; Ke hookokoke nei ko'u ola i ka luapo. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no help:
Ua helu pu ia no wau me ka poe iho ilalo i ka lua; Ua like hoi au me ke kanaka, aohe ona ikaika:
5 Cast off among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more; and they are cut off from thy hand.
Ua waiho wale ia iwaena o ka poe make, Ua like hoi me ka poe i houia e moe ana ma ka lua, Aole oe e hoomanao hou ia lakou; Ua hookiia lakou, mai kou lima aku.
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
Ua hoomoe oe ia'u iloko o ka lua hohonu loa, Maloko o ka pouli, a me ua hohonu.
7 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. (Selah)
Ua kaumaha mai kou huhu maluna o'u, Ua hoopilikia mai oe ia'u i kou mau ale a pau. (Sila)
8 Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
Ua hookaawale loa aku oe i ko'u makamaka mai o'u aku, Ua hoolilo mai oe ia'u i mea hoopailua no lakou: Ua paa no hoi au, aole e hiki ia'u ke hele aku.
9 Mine eye wasteth away by reason of affliction: I have called daily upon thee, O LORD, I have spread forth my hands unto thee.
Ua hokii ko'u mau maka no ka popilikia; Ua kahea aku no wau ia oe, e Iehova, i na la a pau, Ua kikoo aku no hoi au i ko'u lima ia oe.
10 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall they that are deceased arise and praise thee? (Selah)
E hoike anei oe i na hana mana no ka poe i make? E ala mai anei na lapu e hoolea aku ia oe? (Sila)
11 Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in Destruction?
E haiia anei kou lokomaikai ma ka luakupapau? A me kou oiaio hoi maloko o ka po?
12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
E ikea anei kau hana mana maloko o ka pouli? A me kou pono hoi maloko o ka aina meki?
13 But unto thee, O LORD, have I cried, and in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.
E kahea aku nae au ia oe, e Iehova; I ke kakahiaka hoi e halawai no ka'u pule me oe.
14 LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?
E Iehova, no ke aha la oe e hoopailua mai i ko'u uhane? A huna hoi i kou maka ia'u?
15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
Ua pilikia au, a kokoke no i ka make, mai ko'u wa uuku mai; Ia'u i loohia'i i kou mea makau, ua kupikipikio au.
16 Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
Ua hele ae maluna o'u kou huhu wela; Ua hooki loa hoi kou mau mea makau ia'u.
17 They came round about me like water all the day long; they compassed me about together.
Hele poai mai la lakou ia'u, me he wai la; Hoopuni mai la lakou ia'u.
18 Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.
Ua hookaawale loa oe i ko'u mea aloha, a me ko'u makamaka, mai o'u aku, Aia hoi ko'u hoalauna ma ka pouli.
