Psalms 88
1 Yahweh God, you who rescues me, all during each day I call out [to you] to help me, and I cry out to you during each night also.
Nyanyian. Mazmur kaum Korah. Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut lagu: Mahalat Leanot. Nyanyian pengajaran Heman, orang Ezrahi. Ya TUHAN, Allah yang menyelamatkan aku, di waktu siang aku berseru kepada-Mu, di waktu malam aku menghadap Engkau.
2 Listen [IDM] to my prayer [DOU], while I cry out to you [for help]!
Semoga doaku sampai kepada-Mu, dengarkanlah seruanku.
3 I have experienced many troubles/difficulties, and I am about to die [MTY] and go where dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Aku ditimpa banyak kesusahan; maut sudah di ambang pintu. (Sheol h7585)
4 Because I have no more strength, [other people also] consider that I will soon die.
Aku seperti orang yang akan turun ke liang kubur, orang yang kehabisan tenaga.
5 I am like a corpse that has been abandoned; I am like dead people who lie in their graves, people who have been completely forgotten, because you do not take care of them any more.
Aku ditinggalkan di antara orang mati, seperti orang terbunuh, terbaring dalam kuburan, seperti orang yang Kaulupakan sama sekali, orang yang tidak Kautolong lagi.
6 [It is as though] you have thrown me into a deep, dark pit, into a place where they throw corpses.
Engkau melemparkan aku ke lubang yang dalam, ke liang kubur yang dalam dan gelap.
7 [It seems like] you are very angry with me, and [it is as though] you have crushed me like [ocean] waves [crash down on people] [MET].
Kemarahan-Mu menekan aku dengan berat, aku hancur tertindas oleh murka-Mu.
8 You have caused my friends to (avoid/stay away from) me; I have become repulsive to them. [It is as though] I am in a prison and cannot escape.
Kaujauhkan kenalan-kenalanku daripadaku, dan Kaubuat aku memuakkan bagi mereka. Aku terkurung dan tak dapat keluar,
9 My eyes cannot see well because I cry very much. Yahweh, every day I call out to you [to help me]; I lift up my hands to you [while I pray].
mataku menjadi redup karena sengsara. Setiap hari aku berseru kepada-Mu, TUHAN, dan berdoa dengan tangan terentang.
10 You certainly do not [RHQ] perform miracles for dead people! Their spirits do not [RHQ] arise to praise you!
Apakah Engkau membuat keajaiban untuk orang mati? Apakah mereka bangkit dan memuji Engkau?
11 Corpses in the grave certainly do not tell about your faithfully loving us [RHQ], and in the place where people are finally destroyed, no one tells about what you faithfully [do for us] [RHQ].
Apakah kasih-Mu diberitakan dalam kuburan, dan kesetiaan-Mu di tempat kebinasaan?
12 No one in the deep dark pit ever sees the miracles that you perform [RHQ], and no one in the place where people have been completely forgotten tells about your being good to us.
Adakah yang mengetahui keajaiban-Mu dalam kegelapan, atau kebaikan-Mu di negeri tempat orang dilupakan?
13 But [as for me], Yahweh, I cry out to you [to help me]; each morning I pray to you.
Tetapi aku mohon pertolongan-Mu, ya TUHAN, setiap pagi kupanjatkan doa kepada-Mu.
14 Yahweh, why do you reject me [RHQ]? Why do you turn away from me [RHQ]?
Ya TUHAN, mengapa Engkau menolak aku? Mengapa Kaupalingkan wajah-Mu daripadaku?
15 All the time since I was young, I have suffered and have often almost died; I am (in despair/very discouraged) because of enduring the terrible things that you have done to me.
Sejak kecil aku sengsara dan diincar maut, aku kepayahan menanggung hukuman-Mu.
16 [I feel that] you have crushed me because of your being angry with me; the terrible things that you are doing to me are almost destroying me.
Kemarahan-Mu yang dahsyat menghancurkan aku; serangan-Mu yang hebat membinasakan aku.
17 [I feel as though] they surround me like a flood [SIM]; they are (closing in on/crushing) me from all sides.
Sepanjang hari kemarahan-Mu seperti banjir mengelilingi aku, mengepung aku dari segala penjuru.
18 You have caused [even] my friends and others whom I love to avoid me, and [it is as though] the only friend that I have is darkness.
Kawan-kawanku yang akrab Kaujauhkan daripadaku, tinggal kegelapan menemani aku.
