Psalms 88
1 Orin. Saamu ti àwọn ọmọ Kora. Fún adarí orin. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti mahalati leannoti. Maskili ti Hemani ará Esra. Olúwa, Ọlọ́run tí ó gbà mí là, ní ọ̀sán àti ní òru, mo kígbe sókè sí Ọ.
O lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before you:
2 Jẹ́ kí àdúrà mi kí ó wá sí iwájú rẹ; dẹ etí rẹ sí igbe mi.
Let my prayer come before you: incline your ear to my cry;
For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draws near to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
4 A kà mí mọ́ àwọn tí wọ́n lọ sí ọ̀gbun ilẹ̀ èmi dàbí ọkùnrin tí kò ni agbára.
I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that has no strength:
5 A yà mí sọ́tọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn òkú bí ẹni tí a pa tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ ní ipò ikú, ẹni tí ìwọ kò rántí mọ́, ẹni tí a gé kúrò lára àwọn tí ìwọ ń tọ́jú.
Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom you remember no more: and they are cut off from your hand.
6 Ìwọ tí ó fi mí sí kòtò jíjìn, ní ibi ọ̀gbun tó ṣókùnkùn.
You have laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
7 Ìbínú rẹ ṣubú lé mi gidigidi; ìwọ ti fi àwọn ìjì rẹ borí mi.
Your wrath lies hard on me, and you have afflicted me with all your waves. (Selah)
8 Ìwọ tí gba ọ̀rẹ́ mi tí ó súnmọ́ mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi ìwọ sì sọ mi di ìríra sí wọn. A há mi mọ́, èmi kò sì le è jáde;
You have put away my acquaintance far from me; you have made me an abomination to them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
9 ojú mi káàánú nítorí ìpọ́njú. Mo kígbe pè ọ́, Olúwa, ní gbogbo ọjọ́; mo na ọwọ́ mi jáde sí ọ.
My eye mourns by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily on you, I have stretched out my hands to you.
10 Ìwọ ó fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ hàn fún òkú bi? Àwọn òkú yóò ha dìde láti yìn ọ́ bí?
Will you show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise you? (Selah)
11 A ó ha fi ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ hàn ní ibojì bí, tàbí òtítọ́ rẹ ní ipò ìparun?
Shall your loving kindness be declared in the grave? or your faithfulness in destruction?
12 A ha lè mọ iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ ní òkùnkùn bí àti òdodo rẹ ní ilẹ̀ ìgbàgbé?
Shall your wonders be known in the dark? and your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
13 Ṣùgbọ́n mo kígbe sí ọ fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, Olúwa; ní òwúrọ̀ ni àdúrà mí wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ.
But to you have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent you.
14 Olúwa, èéṣe tí ìwọ fi kọ̀ mí tí ìwọ fi ojú rẹ pamọ́ fún mi?
LORD, why cast you off my soul? why hide you your face from me?
15 Láti ìgbà èwe mi, ìṣẹ́ ń ṣẹ́ mi, èmi múra àti kú; nígbà tí ẹ̀rù rẹ bá ń bà mí, èmi di gbére-gbère.
I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer your terrors I am distracted.
16 Ìbínú rẹ ti kọjá lára mi; ìbẹ̀rù rẹ ti gé mi kúrò.
Your fierce wrath goes over me; your terrors have cut me off.
17 Ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ni wọn yí mi ká bí ìkún omi; wọ́n mù mí pátápátá.
They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together.
18 Ìwọ ti mú ọ̀rẹ́ àti olùfẹ́ mi kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi; òkùnkùn sì jẹ́ ọ̀rẹ́ tímọ́tímọ́ mi.
Lover and friend have you put far from me, and my acquaintance into darkness.
