< Psalms 90 >

1 BOOK FOURTH: “A prayer of Moses the man of God.” Lord, a place of refuge hast thou been unto us in all generations.
हे परमप्रभु, सबै पुस्ताभरि नै तपाईं हाम्रो सरणस्थान हुनुभएको छ ।
2 Before yet the mountains were brought forth, or thou hadst ever produced the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
पहाडहरू बनाउनुअगि वा तपाईंले पृथ्वी र संसारलाई बनाउनुअगि, अनादिदेखि अनन्तसम्म नै तपाईं परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ ।
3 Thou turnest man to contrition, and sayest, Return ye children of men.
तपाईंले मानिसलाई धूलोमा फर्काउनुहुन्छ, र तपाईं भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “ए मानवजातिका सन्तानहरू हो, फर्क ।”
4 For a thousand years are in thy eyes but as the yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
किनकि तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा हजार वर्षचाहिं बितेर जाँदा हिजोको दिन र रातको एक पहरजस्तै हो ।
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning [they grow] like the grass which changeth.
तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई बाढीले झैं बढार्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरू निदाउँछन् । बिहानमा तिनीहरू उम्रने घाँसहरूजस्तै हुन्‍छन् ।
6 In the morning it blossometh, and is changed: in the evening it is mowed off, and withereth.
बिहानमा त्‍यो फक्रिन्‍छ र बढ्छ । साँझमा त्‍यो ओइलाउँछ र सुक्‍छ ।
7 For [thus] are we consumed by thy anger, and by thy fury are we terrified.
साँच्‍चै, हामी तपाईंको रिसमा नष्‍ट भएका छौं र तपाईंको क्रोधमा हामी त्रसित छौं ।
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our concealed sins before the light of thy countenance.
तपाईंले हाम्रा अधर्महरू आफ्‍नो सामु, हाम्रा लुकेका पापहरू आफ्‍नो उपस्थितिमा राख्‍नुभएको छ ।
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we consume our years like a word that is spoken.
हाम्रो जीवन तपाईंको क्रोधमा बितेर जान्छ । हाम्रो वर्षहरू सुस्‍सकेराझैं बित्छ ।
10 The days of our years in this life are seventy years; and if by uncommon vigor they be eighty, yet is their greatness trouble and mishap; for it soon hasteneth off, and we fly away.
हाम्रा आयु सत्तरी वर्ष वा हामी स्वस्थ्य छौं भने असी वर्ष हुन्छ । तर हाम्रा उत्तम वर्षहरू पनि कष्‍ट र पीडाले पूर्ण छन् । हो, ती चाँडै बितिजन्‍छन् र हामी उडिजान्छौं ।
11 Who knoweth the strength of thy anger, and thy wrath which is like the fear of thee?
तपाईंको रिसको प्रचण्डता र तपाईंको भय समानको तपाईंको क्रोध कसले जान्दछ?
12 Let us then know how to number our days, that we may obtain a heart endowed with wisdom.
त्यसैले हाम्रो जीवनको विचार गर्न हामीलाई सिकाउनुहोस्, ताकि हामी बुद्धिमान् भएर जिउन सकौं।
13 Return, O Lord, how long yet? and bethink thee concerning thy servants.
हे परमप्रभु, फर्कनुहोस्! यो कहिलेसम्म हुनेछ? आफ्नो सेवकमाथि दया गर्नुहोस् ।
14 O satisfy us in the morning with thy kindness, that we may be glad and rejoice throughout all our days.
बिहान हामीलाई तपाईंको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तताले सन्‍तुष्‍ट पार्नुहोस्, ताकि हाम्रो जीवनभरि हामी आनन्‍दित र खुसी हुन सकौं।
15 Cause us to rejoice as many days as those wherein thou hast afflicted us, the years wherein we have seen unhappiness.
हामीलाई विपत्तिमा पार्नुभएका दिनहरू र हामीले कष्‍ट भोगेका वर्षहरू जति थिए त्यति नै हामीलाई खुसी पार्नुहोस् ।
16 Let thy act be visible on thy servants, and thy majesty over their children.
तपाईंको सेवकले तपाईंको काम देखोस् र हाम्रा छोराछोरीले तपाईंको ऐश्‍वर्य देखून् ।
17 And may the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us; and the work of our hands do thou firmly establish upon us: yea, the work of our hands—firmly establish thou it.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको कृपा हाम्रो होस् । हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप होऊन् । वास्तवमा, हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप गरिदिनुहोस् ।
