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.
A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Suffering of Affliction.” A contemplation by Heman, the Ezrahite. LORD, the 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 enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.
For my soul is full of troubles. My life draws near to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
4 A kà mí mọ́ àwọn tí wọ́n lọ sí ọ̀gbun ilẹ̀ èmi dàbí ọkùnrin tí kò ni agbára.
I am counted among those who go down into the pit. I am like a man who has no help,
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.
set apart among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more. 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 the darkest depths.
7 Ìbínú rẹ ṣubú lé mi gidigidi; ìwọ ti fi àwọn ìjì rẹ borí mi.
Your wrath lies heavily on me. 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 taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can’t escape.
9 ojú mi káàánú nítorí ìpọ́njú. Mo kígbe pè ọ́, Olúwa, ní gbogbo ọjọ́; mo na ọwọ́ mi jáde sí ọ.
My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, LORD. I have spread 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?
Do you show wonders to the dead? Do the departed spirits rise up and praise you? (Selah)
11 A ó ha fi ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ hàn ní ibojì bí, tàbí òtítọ́ rẹ ní ipò ìparun?
Is your loving kindness 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?
Are your wonders made known in the dark? Or 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, LORD, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you.
14 Olúwa, èéṣe tí ìwọ fi kọ̀ mí tí ìwọ fi ojú rẹ pamọ́ fún mi?
LORD, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide 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 has gone 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 around me like water all day long. They completely engulfed me.
18 Ìwọ ti mú ọ̀rẹ́ àti olùfẹ́ mi kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi; òkùnkùn sì jẹ́ ọ̀rẹ́ tímọ́tímọ́ mi.
You have put lover and friend far from me, and my friends into darkness.
