< Psalms 39 >

1 For the choirmaster. For Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. I said, “I will watch my ways so that I will not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth with a muzzle as long as the wicked are present.”
मैले निर्णय गरें, “म जे भन्छु सो कुरामा म सावधान हुनेछु ताकि मेरो जिब्रोले म पाप नगरुँ । खराब मानिसको उपस्थितिमा हुँदा म आफ्‍नो मुखलाई चूप राख्‍नेछु ।”
2 I was speechless and still; I remained silent, even from speaking good, and my sorrow was stirred.
म शान्‍त बसें । कुनै असल कुरा भन्‍नलाई पनि मैले आफ्‍नो मुख खोलिनँ र मेरो दुःख झन् बढी भयो ।
3 My heart grew hot within me; as I mused, the fire burned. Then I spoke with my tongue:
मेरो हृदय तातो भयो । जब मैले यी कुराका बारेमा विचार गरें, तब त्‍यो आगोझैं बल्यो । तब अन्तमा मैले बोलें ।
4 “Show me, O LORD, my end and the measure of my days. Let me know how fleeting my life is.
“हे परमप्रभु, मेरो जीवनको अन्त कहिले हुन्छ र मेरो समय कहिलेसम्‍म छ सो मलाई जान्‍न दिनुहोस् । म कति क्षणिक छु भनी मलाई देखाउनुहोस् ।
5 You, indeed, have made my days as handbreadths, and my lifetime as nothing before You. Truly each man at his best exists as but a breath.
हेर्नुहोस्, तपाईंले मेरो समय मेरो हातको बित्ताभरिको मात्र बनाउनुभएको छ र मेरो जीवनकाल तपाईंको सामु केही पनि होइन । निश्‍चय नै, हरेक मानिस एक सास मात्र हो । सेला
6 Surely every man goes about like a phantom; surely he bustles in vain; he heaps up riches not knowing who will haul them away.
निश्‍चय नै हरेक मानिस छाया झैं हिंड्‍डुल गर्छ । निश्‍चय नै हरेक व्‍यक्‍ति धन थुपार्न हतार गर्छ, तापनि ति कसले पाउनेछ भनी तिनीहरू जान्दैनन् ।
7 And now, O Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in You.
हे परमप्रभु, म के पर्खिरहेको छु? मेरो एक मात्र आसा तपाईं हुनुहुन्छ ।
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions; do not make me the reproach of fools.
मेरा पापहरूबाट मलाई बचाउनुहोस् । मलाई मूर्खहरूको निन्दा नबाउनुहोस् ।
9 I have become mute; I do not open my mouth because of what You have done.
म शान्‍त छु र मेरो मुख खोल्न सक्दिनँ, किनभने त्‍यो गर्ने तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ ।
10 Remove Your scourge from me; I am perishing by the force of Your hand.
मलाई चोट दिन छोड्नुहोस् । तपाईंको हातको मुक्‍काले म विह्‍वल भएको छु ।
11 You discipline and correct a man for his iniquity, consuming like a moth what he holds dear; surely each man is but a vapor.
जब तपाईंले मानिसहरूलाई पापको निम्ति अनुशासन गर्नुहुन्छ, तब तिनीहरूले इच्छा गर्ने कुरालाई तपाईंले कीराले झैं नष्‍ट पार्नुहुन्छ । निश्‍चय नै सबै मानिसहरू बाफबाहेक केही पनि होइन । सेला
12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry for help; do not be deaf to my weeping. For I am a foreigner dwelling with You, a stranger like all my fathers.
हे परमप्रभु, मेरो प्रार्थना सुन्‍नुहोस् र मेरो कुरामा ध्‍यान दिनुहोस् । मेरो रोदन सुन्‍नुहोस् । मेरो कुरामा बहिरो नहुनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंसँग म विदेशीजस्तै, मेरा सबै पुर्खाजस्तै एक जना शरणार्थी हुँ ।
13 Turn Your gaze away from me, that I may again be cheered before I depart and am no more.”
मबाट तपाईंको हेराइलाई हटाउनुहोस् ताकि म मर्नअघि म फेरि मुसुक्‍क हाँस्‍न सकौं।
