< Psalms 88 >
1 A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer, 'Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.' — An instruction, by Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I have cried, nightly before Thee,
Yon Chan. Yon Sòm a fis Koré yo Pou direktè Koral la; selon melodi “Soufrans Afliksyon An”. Yon refleksyon pa Héman, Ezrachit la O SENYÈ, Bondye sali mwen an, Mwen te kriye fò lajounen kon lannwit devan Ou.
2 My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud cry,
Kite priyè mwen vini devan Ou. Panche zòrèy Ou vè kri mwen an!
3 For my soul hath been full of evils, And my life hath come to Sheol. (Sheol )
Paske nanm mwen gen kont twoub li. Lavi m vin toupre sejou lanmò a. (Sheol )
4 I have been reckoned with those going down [to] the pit, I have been as a man without strength.
Mwen vin konte pami (sila) ki desann nan fòs yo. Mwen parèt tankou yon nonm san fòs,
5 Among the dead — free, As pierced ones lying in the grave, Whom Thou hast not remembered any more, Yea, they by Thy hand have been cut off.
abandone pami mò yo, tankou (sila) ki te touye e kouche nan tonm lan. (Sila) a nou pa sonje ankò menm, ki koupe retire nan men Ou.
6 Thou hast put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in depths.
Ou te mete m nan fòs pi ba a, nan plas fènwa yo, nan fon yo.
7 Upon me hath Thy fury lain, And [with] all Thy breakers Thou hast afflicted. (Selah)
Kòlè Ou vin poze sou mwen. Ou te aflije m ak tout vag lanmè Ou yo. Tan
8 Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made me an abomination to them, Shut up — I go not forth.
Ou te retire tout moun mwen konnen byen lwen m. Ou te fè m yon objè abominab devan yo. Mwen fèmen anndan nèt e mwen pa kab sòti.
9 Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.
Zye m gen tan pouri akoz afliksyon. Mwen te rele Ou chak jou, O SENYÈ. Mwen te lonje men m yo vè Ou menm.
10 To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they thank Thee? (Selah)
Èske Ou va fè mirak pou mò yo? Èske lespri ki fin pati yo va leve pou bay Ou lwanj? Tan
11 Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction?
Èske lanmò dous Ou a va deklare nan tonbo a? Fidelite Ou nan labim nan?
12 Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Èske mirak Ou yo va fèt parèt nan tenèb la? Oswa ladwati Ou nan peyi kote tout bagay bliye yo?
13 And I, unto Thee, O Jehovah, I have cried, And in the morning doth my prayer come before Thee.
Men anvè Ou, O SENYÈ, mwen te kriye. Nan maten, lapriyè mwen vini devan Ou.
14 Why, O Jehovah, castest Thou off my soul? Thou hidest Thy face from me.
O SENYÈ, poukisa Ou rejte nanm mwen? Poukisa Ou kache figi Ou kont mwen?
15 I [am] afflicted, and expiring from youth, I have borne Thy terrors — I pine away.
Mwen te aflije e prèt pou mouri depi nan jenès mwen. Pandan mwen soufri gwo laperèz Ou yo, mwen distrè nèt.
16 Over me hath Thy wrath passed, Thy terrors have cut me off,
Kòlè Ou ki brile, fin pase sou mwen. Gwo laperèz Ou yo te koupe retire m.
17 They have surrounded me as waters all the day, They have gone round against me together,
Yo fin antoure mwen tankou dlo tout lajounen. Yo ansèkle m nèt.
18 Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine acquaintance [is] the place of darkness!
Ou te retire renmen mwen ak zanmi m nan lwen m nèt, ak zanmi m yo, nan tenèb.
