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,
E IEHOVA, ke Akua o ko'u ola, Ua kahea aku no au imua ou i ke ao a me ka po.
2 My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud 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 have been reckoned with those going down [to] the pit, I have been as a man without strength.
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 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.
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 put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in depths.
Ua hoomoe oe ia'u iloko o ka lua hohonu loa, Maloko o ka pouli, a me ua hohonu.
7 Upon me hath Thy fury lain, And [with] all Thy breakers Thou hast afflicted. (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 to them, Shut up — I go not 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 hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.
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 To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they thank 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 Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction?
E haiia anei kou lokomaikai ma ka luakupapau? A me kou oiaio hoi maloko o ka po?
12 Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? 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 And I, unto Thee, O Jehovah, I have cried, And in the morning doth 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 Why, O Jehovah, castest Thou off my soul? Thou hidest 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 expiring from youth, I have borne Thy terrors — I pine away.
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 Over me hath Thy wrath passed, 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 have surrounded me as waters all the day, They have gone round against me together,
Hele poai mai la lakou ia'u, me he wai la; Hoopuni mai la lakou ia'u.
18 Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine acquaintance [is] the place of 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.
