Psalms 88
1 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Suffering of Affliction.” A contemplation by Heman, the Ezrahite. LORD, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before you.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya bana ya Kore. Ezali ya koyemba na flite. Nzembo ya Emani, moto ya Ezera. Yawe, ozali Nzambe; Yo nde obikisaka ngai! Butu mpe moyi, nagangaka epai na Yo!
2 Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.
Tika ete losambo na ngai ekoma epai na Yo; Yoka koganga na ngai!
Pamba te bomoi na ngai etondi na pasi mpe nakomi pene ya kokufa. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am counted amongst those who go down into the pit. I am like a man who has no help,
Batie ngai na molongo ya bato oyo bazali kokende na kunda; nakeseni ata moke te na moto oyo azali lisusu na makasi te.
5 set apart amongst the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more. They are cut off from your hand.
Nakomi moko kati na bakufi, lokola bato oyo basila kokufa na bitumba mpe bazali sik’oyo kati na kunda, lokola bato oyo okanisaka lisusu te, pamba te obatelaka bango lisusu te.
6 You have laid me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.
Obwaki ngai na libulu ya mozindo makasi, kati na mozindo ya molili.
7 Your wrath lies heavily on me. You have afflicted me with all your waves. (Selah)
Kanda na Yo ya makasi ekweyeli ngai, bambonge na yango nyonso ezali konyokola ngai.
8 You have taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can’t escape.
Okaboli ngai na balingami na ngai ya motema, okomisi ngai eloko ya nkele na miso na bango; nakomi lokola mokangami kati na boloko, nakoki kobima te!
9 My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, LORD. I have spread out my hands to you.
Miso na ngai ezali komona lisusu te mpo na pasi; nzokande nabelelaka Yo, Yawe, mikolo nyonso, natombolaka maboko na ngai epai na Yo!
10 Do you show wonders to the dead? Do the departed spirits rise up and praise you? (Selah)
Boni, okosala bikamwa mpo na bakufi? Boni, bakufi bakoki kotelema mpo na kosanzola Yo?
11 Is your loving kindness declared in the grave? Or your faithfulness in Destruction?
Boni, bolingo na Yo etatolamaka kati na kunda, mpe bosembo na Yo, kati na mboka ya bakufi?
12 Are your wonders made known in the dark? Or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Boni, bikamwa na Yo eyebani kati na molili, mpe bosembo na Yo, kati na mokili ya bato oyo babosana?
13 But to you, LORD, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you.
Kasi ngai, nazali kobelela nde Yo, Yawe; nabondelaka Yo tongo nyonso.
14 LORD, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide your face from me?
Yawe, mpo na nini kobwaka ngai mpe kobombela ngai elongi na Yo?
15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up. While I suffer your terrors, I am distracted.
Wuta bolenge na ngai, nazali mobola mpe moto na pasi; mpe okweyiselaka ngai makambo na Yo ya somo! Solo, elikya esili ngai!
16 Your fierce wrath has gone over me. Your terrors have cut me off.
Kanda makasi na Yo ebetaka ngai, minyoko oyo ewutaka epai na Yo ekomisaka ngai moto pamba.
17 They came around me like water all day long. They completely engulfed me.
Ezingelaka ngai mikolo nyonso, lokola mayi, na bangambo nyonso.
18 You have put lover and friend far from me, and my friends into darkness.
Okaboli ngai na baninga mpe balingami na ngai, natikali na moninga kaka moko ya motema: molili!
