Salamo 88
1 Ry Iehovà, Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañe ahiko, itoreovako handro an-kaleñe añatrefa’o,
“A psalm of the sons of Korah. For the leader of the music. Upon wind instruments. A psalm of Heman, the Ezrahite.” O LORD, God of my salvation! To thee do I cry by day, And by night is my prayer before thee!
2 Ehe te hiatrek’ azo ty halaliko; atokilaño mb’amy fikaihakoy ty ravembia’o;
Let my supplication come before thee; Incline thine ear to my cry!
For my soul is full of misery, And my life draweth near to the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
4 Volilieñe amo migodoñe mb’an-davak’ ao iraho; hoe ondaty nipitso-pañimba.
I am counted with those who are going down to the pit; I am like one who hath no strength.
5 Mihoriñe amo vilasio iraho, manahake o vinono mitsalalampatse an-kiborio, o tsy tiahi’o kañeo, o naito am-pità’oo.
I am left to myself among the dead, Like the slain who lie in the grave, Whom thou no more rememberest, And who are cut off from thy [[protecting]] hand.
6 Navotra’o ami’ty loho herakerak’ ao an-toe’e mimoromoroñe an-dalek’ ao.
Thou hast placed me in a deep pit, In a dark and deep abyss.
7 Napok’ amako o fifombo’oo, naho naniloke ahy o kinera’oo. Selà
Thy wrath presseth hard upon me, And thou afflictest me with all thy waves! (Pause)
8 Fa naveve’o lavitse ahy o rañekoo, nampirihie’o ahiko. migoboñe atoan-draho tsy mahafiakatse;
Thou hast put mine acquaintances far from me, Yea, thou hast made me their abhorrence: I am shut up, and cannot go forth.
9 Mitike amy hasotriakoy o masokoo. fa nikanjieko boak’andro, ry Iehovà; fa namelarako tañañe.
Mine eyes languish by reason of my affliction. I call upon thee daily, O LORD! To thee do I stretch out my hands!
10 Hanoa’o raha tsitantane hao o loloo? Hitroatse hañandriañ’ Azo hao o angatseo? Selà
Canst thou show wonders to the dead? Shall the dead arise, and praise thee? (Pause)
11 Ho talilieñe an-donak’ ao hao ty fiferenaiña’o? an-tsikeokeok’ ao hao ty figahiña’o?
Shall thy goodness be declared in the grave, Or thy faithfulness in the place of corruption?
12 Hampahafohineñe am-pimoromoroñañe ao hao o halatsà’oo, naho an-tanem-pandikofañe ao hao ty havañona’o?
Shall thy wonders be known in the dark, And thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?
13 Aa naho izaho, ihe ry Iehovà ty itoreovako; mifanalaka ama’o boak’andro o halalikoo.
To thee do I cry, O LORD! In the morning doth my cry come before thee.
14 Ry Iehovà akore te farie’o ty fiaiko? Ino ty añetaha’o laharañ’ amako?
Why, O LORD! dost thou cast me off? Why hidest thou thy face from me?
15 Nalovilovy ho nikenkan-draho ampara’ ty nahajalahy ahiko, fa nivavèko ty hetraketra’o, vaho voretra.
I have been afflicted and languishing from my youth; I suffer thy terrors, and am distracted.
16 Fa nandipotse ahy ty fifombo’o miforoforo; vaho fa nañito ahy ty firevendreveñañe ama’o.
Thy fierce wrath overwhelmeth me; Thy terrors utterly destroy me.
17 Niropak’ amako lomoñandro hoe rano, le nanaron-kohok’ ahy.
They surround me daily like water; They compass me about together.
18 Toe nampihankàñe’o amako ty mpikoko naho rañetse; atehenako ty hamoromoroñañe.
Lover and friend hast thou put far from me; My acquaintances are withdrawn from my sight.
