ਜ਼ਬੂਰ 88
1 ੧ ਗੀਤ; ਕੋਰਹ ਵੰਸ਼ੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਭਜਨ। ਪ੍ਰਧਾਨ ਵਜਾਉਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਦੇ ਲਈ ਮਹਲਤਲਗੋਨ ਦੇ ਰਾਗ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਜ਼ਰਾ ਵੰਸ਼ੀ ਹੇਮਾਨ ਦਾ ਮਸ਼ਕੀਲ ਹੇ ਯਹੋਵਾਹ, ਮੇਰੇ ਮੁਕਤੀ ਦੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ, ਮੈਂ ਦਿਨ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਅਤੇ ਰਾਤ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਤੇਰੇ ਅੱਗੇ ਦੁਹਾਈ ਦਿੱਤੀ।
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.
Listen [IDM] to my prayer [DOU], while I cry out to you [for help]!
I have experienced many troubles/difficulties, and I am about to die [MTY] and go where dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Because I have no more strength, [other people also] consider that I will soon die.
5 ੫ ਮੈਂ ਮੁਰਦਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੁੱਟਿਆ ਗਿਆ ਹਾਂ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਵੱਢਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਵਾਂਗੂੰ ਜਿਹੜੇ ਕਬਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੇਟੇ ਪਏ ਹਨ, ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਤੂੰ ਫੇਰ ਚੇਤੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਦਾ, ਅਤੇ ਓਹ ਤੇਰੇ ਹੱਥੋਂ ਵਿੱਛੜ ਗਏ ਹਨ।
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.
[It is as though] you have thrown me into a deep, dark pit, into a place where they throw corpses.
7 ੭ ਤੇਰਾ ਕਹਿਰ ਮੇਰੇ ਉੱਤੇ ਡਾਢਾ ਭਾਰੀ ਪਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੈ, ਅਤੇ ਆਪਣੀਆਂ ਸਾਰੀਆਂ ਮੌਜਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਤੂੰ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਦੁੱਖ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੈ। ਸਲਹ।
[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].
8 ੮ ਮੇਰੇ ਜਾਣ ਪਛਾਣਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਤੂੰ ਮੈਥੋਂ ਦੂਰ ਕੀਤਾ, ਅਤੇ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲਈ ਘਿਣਾਉਣਾ ਬਣਾਇਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੈ, ਮੈਂ ਬੰਦ ਹਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਮੈਥੋਂ ਬਾਹਰ ਨਿੱਕਲਿਆ ਨਹੀਂ ਜਾਂਦਾ!
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.
9 ੯ ਮੇਰੀਆਂ ਅੱਖਾਂ ਦੁੱਖ ਨਾਲ ਅੰਬ ਗਈਆਂ ਹਨ, ਹੇ ਯਹੋਵਾਹ, ਮੈਂ ਨਿੱਤ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਪੁਕਾਰਿਆ ਹੈ, ਮੈਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਹੱਥ ਤੇਰੀ ਵੱਲ ਅੱਡੇ ਹੋਏ ਹਨ।
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].
You certainly do not [RHQ] perform miracles for dead people! Their spirits do not [RHQ] arise to praise you!
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].
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.
But [as for me], Yahweh, I cry out to you [to help me]; each morning I pray to you.
Yahweh, why do you reject me [RHQ]? Why do you turn away from me [RHQ]?
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.
[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.
[I feel as though] they surround me like a flood [SIM]; they are (closing in on/crushing) me from all sides.
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.
