Psalms 129

1 A song of ascents. “Often since my youth they have attacked me,” let Israel say.

“मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्,” इस्राएलले भनोस् ।

2 “Often since my youth they have attacked me, yet they have not defeated me.

“मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्, तापनि तिनीहरूले मलाई पराजित गरेका छैनन् ।

3 The plowers plowed on my back; they made their furrows long.

हलो जोत्‍नेहरूले मेरो ढाडमा जोते । तिमीहरूले आफ्‍ना हलोको डोबलाई लामो बनाए ।

4 Yahweh is righteous; he has cut the ropes of the wicked.”

परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले दुष्‍टहरूका डोरीहरू काट्नुभएको छ ।”

5 May they all be put to shame and turned back, those who hate Zion.

सियोनलाई घृणा गर्नेहरू सबै जना लाजमा परून् र फर्केर जाऊन् ।

6 May they be like the grass on the housetops that withers before it grows up,

तिनीहरू घरमाथिका घाँसहरूजस्ता होऊन् जुन बढ्नअगि नै ओइलाउँछ,

7 that cannot fill the reaper's hand or the chest of the one who binds bundles of grain together.

जसले कटनी गर्नेको हात भर्न सक्दैन वा अन्‍नको बिटा बाँध्‍नेको छाती ढाक्‍न सक्दैन ।

8 May those who pass by not say, “May the blessing of Yahweh be on you; we bless you in the name of Yahweh.”

त्यो बाटो हिंड्‍नेहरूले यसो नभनून्, “परमप्रभुको आशिष्‌‌‌ तिमीमाथि रहोस् । तिमीलाई परमप्रभुको नाउँमा हामी आशिष्‌ ‌‌दिन्छौं ।”
