< Psalms 73 >
1 A Melody of Asaph. Nothing but good, is God, Unto Israel, Unto the pure in heart.
निश्चय नै परमेश्वर इस्राएलको निम्ति, शुद्ध हृदय हुनेहरूका निम्ति भला हुनुहुन्छ ।
2 But, as for me, —My feet had, almost stumbled, My steps had, well-nigh slipped;
तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा खुट्टाहरू झण्डै चिप्ले । मेरा खुट्टाहरू मेरो मुनिबाट झण्डै चिप्ले ।
3 For I was envious of the boasters, At the prosperity of the lawless, used I to look.
किनभने जब मैले दुष्टहरूका फलिफाप देखें, तब मैले अहङ्कारीहरूको डाह गरें ।
4 For they have no pangs in their death, And vigorous is their body;
किनकि मृत्युसम्म नै तिनीहरूलाई कुनै पीडा नै हुँछैन, तर तिनीहरू बलिया र स्वस्थ्य हुन्छन् ।
5 Of the toil of weak mortals, have they none, Nor, with the sons of earth, are they hard smitten.
अरू मानिसहरूका बोझहरूबाट तिनीहरू मुक्त छन् । अरू मानिसहरूलाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई कष्ट हुँदैन ।
6 For this cause, doth arrogance deck them as a neck-chain, And a garment of wrong is their attire;
तिनीहरूका घाँटीमा सिक्रीझैं तिनीहरू घमण्डले सजिछन् । वस्त्रले ढाकेझैं तिनीहरूलाई हिंसाले ढाक्नेछ ।
7 Their iniquity, hath proceeded from fatness, They have surpassed the imaginations of the heart;
यस्ता अन्धोपनबाट नै पाप आउँछ । तिनीहरूका हृदयहरूबाट दुष्ट विचारहरू जान्छन् ।
8 They mock, and wickedly command oppression, From on high, they command;
तिनीहरू दुष्टतापूर्वक गिल्ला गर्छन् र बोल्छन् । आफ्नो अहङ्कारमा तिनीहरूले अत्यचारको धम्की दिन्छन् ।
9 They have set, in the heavens, their mouth, And, their tongue, marcheth through the earth.
आफ्नो मुखले तिनीहरू स्वर्गको विरुद्धमा बोल्छन् र तिनीहरूका जिब्रोहरूले पृथ्वीको अधिकार गर्छन् ।
10 Therefore must his people return thither, And, the waters of abundance, are drained by them;
यसकारण तिनका मानिसहरू तिनीहरूतिर फर्कन्छन् र प्रशस्त पानी बगाइन्छ ।
11 And they say—How doth GOD know? And is there knowledge in the Most High?
तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “परमेश्वरले कसरी जान्नुहुन्छ? के सर्वोच्चसँग ज्ञान छ र?”
12 Lo! these, are the lawless, Who are secure for an age, They have attained unto wealth.
हेर्नुहोस्ः यी मानिसहरू दुष्टहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू निश्चिन्त छन् र झन्-झन् धनी हुँदैछन् ।
13 Altogether in vain, Have I cleansed my heart, And bathed in pureness, my hands;
निश्चय नै मैले व्यार्थमा मेरो हृदयलाई सुरक्षित राखेको छु र निर्दोषतामा मेरा हातहरू धोएको छु ।
14 And yet been smitten all the day, And been rebuked morning by morning!
किनकि म दिनभरि कष्टमा परेको छु र हरेक बिहान ताड्ना पाएको छु ।
15 If I had thought, I will relate it thus, Lo! the circle of thy sons, had I betrayed.
“म यी कुराहरू भन्नेछु,” भनी मैले भनेको भए, तपाईंका छोराछोरीका यो पुस्तालाई मैले धोका दिनेथिएँ ।
16 When I reasoned, that I might understand this, A vexation, it was in mine eyes:
मैले यी कुराहरू बुझ्ने कोसिस गरे तापनि, मेरो निम्ति यो धेरै कठिन थियो ।
17 Until I could enter the holy places of God, —Could give heed to their hereafter: —
तब म परमेश्वरको पवित्रस्थानभित्र गएँ र तिनीहरूका अन्तिम अवस्थालाई बुझें ।
18 Surely, in slippery places, dost thou set them, —Thou hast suffered them to fall into places of danger.
निश्चय नै तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चिप्लो ठाउँहरूमा राख्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई सर्वनाश लानुहुन्छ ।
19 How have they become desolate, as in a moment! They have ceased—come to an end, by reason of calamities.
तिनीहरू कसरी क्षणभरमा नै उजाडस्थान बने! तिनीहरूको अन्त भयो र भयानक त्रासहरूले समाप्त पारिए ।
20 As the dream of him that waketh, O my Lord! when rousing thyself up, their shadowy being, wilt thou despise.
कोही ब्युँझँदा, ती सपनामा भएजस्तो हुन्छन् । हे परमप्रभु, जब तपाई खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब तपाईंले ती सपनाहरूका बारेमा केही विचार गर्नुहुन्न ।
21 But my heart had grown embittered, And, in my reins, had I received wounds;
किनकि मेरो हृदय शोकमा परेको थियो र म गहिरो चोटमा परेको थिएँ ।
22 But, I, was brutish, and could not perceive, Like the beasts, had I become before thee.
म मूर्ख थिएँ र अन्तरदृष्टिको कमी थियो । तपाईंको सामु म मूर्ख पशुजस्तै थिएँ ।
23 Nevertheless, I, am continually before thee, Thou hast taken hold of my right hand;
तापनि म सधैं तपाईंसँगै छु । तपाईंले मेरो दाहिने हात समात्नुहुन्छ ।
24 By thy counsel, wilt thou guide me, And, afterwards, unto glory, wilt thou take me.
तपाईंले मलाई आफ्नो सल्लाहले मार्गदर्शन गर्नुहुनेछ र पछि मलाई महिमामा ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ ।
25 Whom have I in the heavens? And, compared with thee, there is nothing I desire on earth.
स्वर्गमा तपाईंबाहेक मेरो को छ र? पृथ्वीमा मैले इच्छा गर्ने तपाईंबाहेक अरू कोही छैन ।
26 Failed have my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart—and my portion, is God unto times age-abiding.
मेरो शरीर र मेरो मुटु कमजोर हुन्छन्, तर परमेश्वर नै सदासर्वदा मेरो हृदयको बल हुनुहुन्छ ।
27 For lo! they who are far from thee, shall perish, Thou hast put an end to every one who wandered unchastely from thee.
तपाईंदेखि टाढा हुनेहरू नष्ट हुनेछन् । तपाईंप्रति विश्वासयोग्य नहुनेहरूलाई तपाईंले नष्ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।
28 But, as for me, the drawing near of God, is my blessedness, —I have made, of My Lord Yahweh, my refuge, —That I may recount all thy works.
तर मेरो बारेमा, मैले गर्नुपर्ने कुराचाहिं परमेश्वरको नजिक जाने हो । परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई मैले आफ्नो शरणस्थान बनाएको छु । तपाईंका सबै कामहरू म घोषणा गर्नेछु ।
