Psalms 88
1 A song or Psalme of Heman the Ezrahite to give instruction, committed to the sonnes of Korah for him that excelleth upon Malath Leannoth. O Lord God of my saluation, I cry day and night before thee.
Salimo la ana a Kora. Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Potsata mayimbidwe a nyimbo yoti: “Pa Matenda ndi pa Mazunzo.” Ndakatulo ya Hemani, wa banja la Ezara. Inu Yehova, Mulungu amene mumandipulumutsa, usana ndi usiku ndimalira pamaso panu.
2 Let my prayer enter into thy presence: incline thine eare vnto my cry.
Pemphero langa lifike pamaso panu; tcherani khutu lanu kuti mumve kulira kwanga.
Pakuti ndili ndi mavuto ambiri ndipo moyo wanga ukuyandikira ku manda. (Sheol h7585)
4 I am counted among them that go downe vnto the pit, and am as a man without strength:
Ndikuwerengedwa pamodzi ndi iwo amene akutsikira ku dzenje; ndine munthu wopanda mphamvu.
5 Free among the dead, like the slaine lying in the graue, whome thou remembrest no more, and they are cut off from thine hand.
Ndayikidwa pambali pamodzi ndi anthu akufa, monga ophedwa amene agona mʼmanda, amene Inu simuwakumbukiranso, amene achotsedwa pa chisamaliro chanu.
6 Thou hast layde me in the lowest pit, in darkenes, and in the deepe.
Mwandiyika pansi pa dzenje penipeni, mʼmalo akuya a mdima waukulu.
7 Thine indignation lyeth vpon me, and thou hast vexed me with all thy waues. (Selah)
Ukali wanu ukundipsinja kwambiri, mwandiopseza kwambiri ndi mafunde anu onse. (Sela)
8 Thou hast put away mine acquaintance farre from me, and made mee to be abhorred of them: I am shut vp, and cannot get foorth.
Mwandichotsa pakati pa abwenzi anga enieni ndipo mwachititsa kuti ndikhale chonyansa kwa iwo. Ndatsekerezedwa ndipo sindingathe kuthawa;
9 Mine eye is sorowfull through mine affliction: Lord, I call dayly vpon thee: I stretch out mine hands vnto thee.
maso anga ada ndi chisoni. Ndimayitana Inu Yehova tsiku lililonse; ndimakweza manja anga kwa Inu.
10 Wilt thou shewe a miracle to the dead? or shall the dead rise and prayse thee? (Selah)
Kodi mumaonetsa zozizwitsa zanu kwa anthu akufa? Kodi iwo amene afa amaukanso ndi kutamanda Inu? (Sela)
11 Shall thy louing kindenes be declared in the graue? or thy faithfulnes in destruction?
Kodi chikondi chanu chimalalikidwa mʼmanda, za kukhulupirika kwanu ku malo a chiwonongeko?
12 Shall thy wonderous workes be knowen in the darke? and thy righteousnes in the land of obliuion?
Kodi zozizwitsa zanu zimadziwika ku malo a mdima, kapena ntchito zanu zolungama ku dziko la anthu oyiwalika?
13 But vnto thee haue I cryed, O Lord, and early shall my prayer come before thee.
Inu Yehova, Ine ndimalirira thandizo; mmawa mapemphero anga amafika pamaso panu.
14 Lord, why doest thou reiect my soule, and hidest thy face from me?
Inu Yehova nʼchifukwa chiyani mukundikana ndi kundibisira nkhope yanu?
15 I am afflicted and at the point of death: from my youth I suffer thy terrours, doubting of my life.
Kuyambira ubwana wanga ndakhala ndikuzunzika pafupi kufa; ndakhala ndikuchita mantha ndipo ndine wothedwa nzeru.
16 Thine indignations goe ouer me, and thy feare hath cut me off.
Ukali wanu wandimiza; zoopsa zanu zandiwononga.
17 They came round about me dayly like water, and compassed me together.
Tsiku lonse zimandizungulira ngati chigumula; zandimiza kwathunthu.
18 My louers and friends hast thou put away from me, and mine acquaintance hid themselues.
Inu mwatenga anzanga ndi okondedwa anga kuwachotsa pamaso panga; mdima ndiye bwenzi langa lenileni.
