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.
MAING Ieowa, Kot ai saunkamaur, i kin likwir nin ran o ni pong mo’mui.
2 Listen [IDM] to my prayer [DOU], while I cry out to you [for help]!
Kom kotin mueid ong, ai kapakap en lelda wong komui. Kom kotin kapaik dong karong omui kan ai likelikwir.
3 I have experienced many troubles/difficulties, and I am about to die [MTY] and go where dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Pwe ngen i me dir en mamauk, o maur i koren iong mela. (Sheol h7585)
4 Because I have no more strength, [other people also] consider that I will soon die.
Ngai kin wadok ong ir me melar, ngai dueta ol amen, me solar angiangi.
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.
I wonon nan pung en me melar akan, me wonon nan sousou, me kom solar kotin kupura, pwe re lokidokilar sang nan lim omui.
6 [It is as though] you have thrown me into a deep, dark pit, into a place where they throw corpses.
Kom kotin kase ia lar nan sousou, wasa rotorot o lol.
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].
Omui ongiong kin katoutou ia, o kom kotin idan kin ia di omui iluk kan. (Sela)
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.
Kom kotiki wonger kompoke pa i kan wasa doo, kom kotin wia kin ia la me sued kot ong ir, i salidier o so kak pitila.
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].
Mas ai suede kilar ai luet, nin ran karos i potoan ong komui, Maing Ieowa, o i kapa wong komui pa i kat.
10 You certainly do not [RHQ] perform miracles for dead people! Their spirits do not [RHQ] arise to praise you!
Kom pan kotin kasaleda omui manaman ren me melar akan? De me melar akan pan maurada danke komui? (Sela)
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].
Re pan kosoia duen omui kalangan nan sousou kan? O wasan mela duen omui melel?
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.
Omui manaman akan pan sansaleda wasa rotorot, o omui pung nan sap en me re solar kin lamelame?
13 But [as for me], Yahweh, I cry out to you [to help me]; each morning I pray to you.
A i kin potoan likwir ong komui, Maing Ieowa nin mansang, ai kapakap pan lel wong komui.
14 Yahweh, why do you reject me [RHQ]? Why do you turn away from me [RHQ]?
Maing Ieowa, da me kom kotin kase ia kila, o da me kom okila ki silang ar mo i?
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.
Ngai me luet o saliel sang ni ai pulepul; i kin kamekamki omui kalom, i koren iong solar kaporopor.
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.
Omui ongiong kin kadupal ia di, omui kalom kawe ia lar.
17 [I feel as though] they surround me like a flood [SIM]; they are (closing in on/crushing) me from all sides.
Re kapil ia pena dueta pil akan sang ni mansang lel sautik, ir karos kapil ia pena.
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.
Kom kotiki wonger kompoke pa i o ai warok kan wasa doo, rotorot eta ai warok.
