< Psalms 37 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be envious of them that do iniquity.
खराबी गर्नेहरूको कारण झर्को नमान । अधार्मिक किसिमले काम गर्नेहरूका इर्ष्या नगर ।
2 For they shall soon be withered as the grass, and shall soon fall away as the green herbs.
किनकि घाँसझैं तिनीहरू चाँडै नै सुकेर जानेछन् र हरिया बिरुवाहरूझैं ओइलाएर जानेछन् ।
3 Hope in the Lord, and do good; and dwell on the land, and thou shalt be fed with the wealth of it.
परमप्रभुमा भरोसा राख र जे असल छ सो गर । देशमा बसोवास गर र विश्वस्ततामा उपभोग गर ।
4 Delight [thyself] in the Lord; and he shall grant thee the requests of thine heart.
परमप्रभुमा आफूलाई खुसी बनाऊ र उहाँले तिम्रो हृदयका इच्छाहरू पुरा गर्नुहुनेछ ।
5 Disclose thy way to the Lord, and hope in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass.
आफ्ना मार्गहरू परमप्रभुलाई देऊ । उहाँमा भरोसा गर र उहाँले तिम्रो निम्ति काम गर्नुहुनेछ ।
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noon-day.
उहाँले तिम्रो न्याय दिनको उज्यालोझैं र तिम्रो निर्दोषता मध्यदिनझैं प्रकट गर्नुहुनेछ ।
7 Submit thyself to the Lord, and supplicate him: fret not thyself because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds.
परमप्रभुको सामु मौन बस र धैर्यपूर्वक उहाँको आसा गर । आफूले गरेका कुरामा कोही सफल हुँदा वा त्यसले दुष्ट षड्यन्त्रहरू बनाउँदा क्रोधित नहोऊ ।
8 ease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself so as to do evil.
क्रोधित नहोऊ र निराश नहोऊ । चिन्ता नगर । यसले समस्यामा मात्र पार्छ ।
9 For evil-doers shall be destroyed: but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land.
दुष्ट काम गर्नेहरूलाई बहिकृत हुनेछन्, तर परमप्रभुको आसा गर्नेहरूले देशको उत्तराधिकार गर्नेछन् ।
10 And yet a little while, and the sinner shall not be, and thou shalt seek for his place, and shalt not find [it].
केही क्षणमा नै दुष्ट मानिस लोप हुनेछन् । तिमीले त्यसको ठाउँमा हेर्नेछौ तर त्यो गइसकेको हुनेछ ।
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight [themselves] in the abundance of peace.
तर नम्रहरूले देशको उत्तराधिकार गर्नेछन् र ठुलो समृद्धिमा खुसी हुनेछन् ।
12 The sinner will watch for the righteous, and gnash his teeth upon him.
दुष्ट मानिसले धर्मीको विरुद्धमा षड्यन्त्र गर्छ र त्यसले उनको विरुद्ध दाह्रा किट्छ ।
13 But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foresees that his day will come.
परमप्रभु त्योमाथि हाँस्नुहुनेछ, किनकि त्यसको दिन आइरहेको उहाँले देख्नुहुन्छ ।
14 Sinners have drawn their swords, they have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy one, [and] to slay the upright in heart.
थिचोमिचोमा परेका र दरिद्रहरूलाई ढाल्न, सोझाहरूलाई मार्न दुष्टहरूले आफ्ना तरवारहरू थुतेका छन् र आफ्ना धनुमा ताँदो चढाएका छन् ।
15 Let their sword enter into their [own] heart, and their bows be broken.
तिनीहरूका तरवारहरूले तिनीहरूका आफ्नै हृदयहरू छेड्नेछन् र तिनीहरूका धनुहरू भाँचिनेछन् ।
16 A little is better to the righteous than abundant wealth of sinners.
धेरै जना दुष्ट मानिसहरूका प्रशस्तताभन्दा धर्मीसँग भएको थोरै नै असल हो ।
17 For the arms of sinners shall be broken; but the Lord supports the righteous.
किनकि दुष्ट मानिसहरूका पाखुराहरू भाँचिनेछन्, तर परमप्रभुले धर्मी मानिसहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुहुन्छ ।
18 The Lord knows the ways of the perfect; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
परमप्रभुले नोष्खोटमाथि दिनदिनै हे्र्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरू उत्तराधिकार सदाको निम्ति हुनेछ ।
19 They shall not be ashamed in an evil time; and in days of famine they shall be satisfied.
समय खराब हुँदा तिनीहरू लज्जित हुनेछैनन् । जब अनिकाल आउँछ, तब तिनीहरूसित प्रशस्त खानेकुरा हुनेछ ।
20 For the sinners shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord at the moment of their being honoured and exalted have utterly vanished like smoke.
तर दुष्ट मानिसहरू नष्ट हुनेछन् । परमप्रभुका शत्रुहरू खर्कहरूका गौरवजस्ता हुनेछन् । तिनीहरू भष्म हुनेछन् र धूवाँमा हराउनेछन् ।
21 The sinner borrows, and will not pay again: but the righteous has compassion, and gives.
दुष्ट मानिसहरूले ऋण लिन्छन् तर तिर्दैनन्, तर धर्मी व्यक्ति उदार हुन्छ र दिन्छ ।
22 For they that bless him shall inherit the earth; and they that curse him shall be utterly destroyed.
परमेश्वरले आशिष् दिनुभएकाहरूले देशको उत्तराधिकार पाउनेछन् । उहाँद्वारा सराप पाएकाहरू बहिष्कृत हुनेछन् ।
23 The steps of a man are rightly ordered by the Lord: and he will take pleasure in his way.
परमप्रभुद्वारा नै मानिसकको कदमहरू स्थापित हुन्छ, त्यो मानिस जसको चाल परमेश्वरको दृष्टिमा प्रशंसनिय हुन्छ ।
24 When he falls, he shall not be ruined: for the Lord supports his hand.
त्यसले ठेस खान्छ, तापनि त्यो ढल्नेछैन, किनकि परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई आफ्नो बाहुलिले समात्नुहुन्छ ।
25 I was [once] young, indeed I am now old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
म जवान थिएँ र अहिले वृद्ध भएको छु । धर्मी व्यक्ति त्यागिएको वा त्यसको छोराछोरीले रोटीको निम्ति मागेको मैले कहिल्यै देखेको छैन ।
26 He is merciful, and lends continually; and his seed shall be blessed.
दिनभरि नै अनुग्रही हुन्छ र पैंचो दिन्छ अनि त्यसका छोराछोरीले आशिष् पाउँछन् ।
27 Turn aside from evil, and do good; and dwell for ever.
खराबीबाट फर्क र जे असल छ सो गर । तब तिमी सदासर्वदा सुरक्षित हुनेछौ ।
28 For the Lord loves judgment, and will not forsake his saints; they shall be preserved for ever: the blameless shall be avenged, but the seed of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
किनकि परमप्रभुले न्यायलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्छ र उहाँका विश्वासयोग्य अनुयायीहरूलाई त्याग्नुहुन्न । तिनीहरू सधैं सुरक्षित राखिन्छन्, तर दुष्टका सन्तानहरू बहिष्कृत हुनेछन् ।
29 But the righteous shall inherit the earth, and dwell upon it for ever.
धर्मीले देशको उत्तराधिकार गर्नेछन् र त्यहाँ सदासर्वदा बास गर्नेछन् ।
30 The mouth of the righteous will meditate wisdom, and his tongue will speak of judgment.
धर्मी व्यक्तिको मुखले बुद्धिको कुरा बोल्छ र न्याय वृद्धि गर्छ ।
31 The law of his God is in his heart; and his steps shall not slide.
आफ्नो परमेश्वरको व्यवस्था त्यसको हृदयमा हुन्छ । त्यसका खुट्टाहरू चिप्लँदैनन् ।
32 The sinner watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
दुष्ट व्यक्तिले धर्मी व्यक्तिलाई हे्र्छ र तिनलाई मार्न खोज्छ ।
33 But the Lord will not leave him in his hands, nor by any means condemn him when he is judged.
परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई दुष्ट व्यक्तिको हातमा छोड्नुहुन्न वा त्यसको न्याय हुँदा त्यसलाई दोषी ठहराउनुहुन्न ।
34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are destroyed, thou shalt see [it].
परमप्रभुको आसा गर र उहाँको मार्ग कायम राख, अनि उहाँले देश अधिकार गर्न तिमीलाई उठाउनुहुनेछ । दुष्टहरू बहिष्कृत भएको तिमीले देख्नेछौ ।
35 I saw the ungodly very highly exalting himself, and lifting himself up like the cedars of Libanus.
दुष्ट र डरलाग्दा व्यक्ति आफ्नो माटोमा हरियो रूखझैं फैलिएको मैले देखेको छु ।
36 Yet I passed by, and lo! he was not: and I sought him, but his place was not found.
तर जब म फेरि त्यो बाटो जाँदा, त्यो त्यहाँ थिएन । मैले त्यसलाई खोजें तर त्यसलाई भेट्टाउन सकिएन ।
37 Maintain innocence, and behold uprightness: for there is a remnant to the peaceable man.
इमान्दार मानिसलाई हेर र सझोलाई ध्यान देऊ । मिलापको मानिसको निम्ति असल भविष्य छ ।
38 But the transgressors shall be utterly destroyed together: the remnants of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
पापीहरू पूर्ण रूपमा नष्ट हुनेछन् । दुष्ट मानिसको भविष्य नष्ट हुनेछ ।
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord; and he is their defender in the time of affliction.
धर्मीको उद्धार परमप्रभुबाट आउँछ । कष्टको समयहरूमा उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई रक्षा गर्नुहुन्छ ।
40 And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: and he shall rescue them from sinners, and save them, because they have hoped in him.
परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुहुन्छ र बचाउनुहुन्छ । उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई खराब मानिसहरूबाट छटाउनुहुन्छ र तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुहुन्छ किनभने तिनीहरूले उहाँमा शरण लिएका छन् ।
