Lamentations 5
1 Keep in mind, O Lord, what has come to us: take note and see our shame.
हे परमप्रभु, हामीमाथि जे भएको छ, सो सम्झनुहोस् । हाम्रो अपमान हेर्नुहोस्, र विचार गर्नुहोस् ।
2 Our heritage is given up to men of strange lands, our houses to those who are not our countrymen.
हाम्रो उत्तराधिकार पराईहरू र हाम्रा घरहरू विदेशीहरूलाई दिइए ।
3 We are children without fathers, our mothers are like widows.
हामी अनाथ, पितृहीन भएका छौँ, र हाम्रा आमाहरू विधवाजस्ता छन् ।
4 We give money for a drink of water, we get our wood for a price.
हामीले पिउने पानीको लागि र हाम्रै दाउरा किन्न हामीले चाँदीको दाम तिर्नुपर्छ ।
5 Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.
हामीलाई पछ्याउनेहरू हाम्रो छेउमा छन् । हामी थाकेका छौँ, र हामीलाई चैन छैन ।
6 We have given our hands to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians so that we might have enough bread.
पर्याप्त खानाको लागि हामीले आफैलाई मिश्र र अश्शूरमा सुम्पिदिएका छौँ ।
7 Our fathers were sinners and are dead; and the weight of their evil-doing is on us.
हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलेपाप गरे, र अब तिनीहरू छैनन्, र हामीले तिनीहरूका अधर्मको फल भोग्दछौँ ।
8 Servants are ruling over us, and there is no one to make us free from their hands.
कमाराहरूले हामीमाथि शासन गर्छन्, र हामीलाई तिनीहरूको हातबाट छुटकारा दिने कोही छैन ।
9 We put our lives in danger to get our bread, because of the sword of the waste land.
उजाड-स्थानमा भएको तरवारको कारण हाम्रा जीवन जोखिममा पारेर मात्रै हामी रोटी पाउँछौँ ।
10 Our skin is heated like an oven because of our burning heat from need of food.
भोकको रापले गर्दा हाम्रो छाला चुलोझैँ तातिएको छ ।
11 They took by force the women in Zion, the virgins in the towns of Judah.
सियोनमा स्त्रीहरू र यहूदाका सहरहरूमा कन्याहरू बलत्कार गरिएका छन् ।
12 Their hands put princes to death by hanging: the faces of old men were not honoured.
राजकुमारहरू तिनीहरूका आफ्नै हातद्वारा झुण्ड्याइएका छन्, र धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई कुनै आदर देखाइएको छैन ।
13 The young men were crushing the grain, and the boys were falling under the wood.
युवाहरू जाँतोमा अन्न पिँध्न बाध्य पारिएका छन्, र ठिटाहरू दाउराको भारीले थिचिएर लडबडाउँदै हिँड्छन् ।
14 The old men are no longer seated in the doorway, and the music of the young men has come to an end.
धर्म-गुरुहरूले सहरको मूल ढोका छोडेका छन्, र युवाहरूले तिनीहरूको सङ्गीत छोडिदिएका छन् ।
15 The joy of our hearts is ended; our dancing is changed into sorrow.
हाम्रो हृदयको आनन्द हटेको छ, र हाम्रो नाच शोकमा परिणत भएको छ ।
16 The crown has been taken from our head: sorrow is ours, for we are sinners.
मुकुट हाम्रो शिरबाट खसेको छ । हामीलाई धिक्कार छ! किनकि हामीले पाप गरेका छौँ ।
17 Because of this our hearts are feeble; for these things our eyes are dark;
हाम्रो यो हृदय दुर्बल भएको छ, र यिनै कुराको कारण हाम्रो आँखा धमिलिएका छन् ।
18 Because of the mountain of Zion which is a waste; jackals go over it.
सियोन पर्वत उजाड छ, जहाँ स्यालहरू घुमिहिँड्छन् ।
19 You, O Lord, are seated as King for ever; the seat of your power is eternal.
तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले सदासर्वदा शासन गर्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईं पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म आफ्नो सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुहुने छ ।
20 Why have we gone from your memory for ever? why have you been turned away from us for so long?
तपाईंले हामीलाई किन सदाको निम्ति बिर्सनुहुन्छ? तपाईंले हामीलाई यति धेरै दिनसम्म किन त्याग्नुहुन्छ?
21 Make us come back to you, O Lord, and let us be turned; make our days new again as in the past.
हे परमप्रभु, हामीलाई पुनर्स्थापना गर्नुहोस्, र हामी पुनर्स्थापित हुने छौँ ।
22 But you have quite given us up; you are full of wrath against us.
तपाईंले हामीलाई बिलकुलै इन्कार गर्नुभएको छैन, र सम्झनै नसक्ने गरी तपाईं हामीसित रिसाउनुभएको छैन भने धेरै पहिले भएजस्तै हाम्रा दिन नवीकरण गरिदिनुहोस् ।
