< Psalms 129 >
1 A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say:
“मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्,” इस्राएलले भनोस् ।
2 Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me.
“मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्, तापनि तिनीहरूले मलाई पराजित गरेका छैनन् ।
3 Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.
हलो जोत्नेहरूले मेरो ढाडमा जोते । तिमीहरूले आफ्ना हलोको डोबलाई लामो बनाए ।
4 Jehovah [is] righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked.
परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले दुष्टहरूका डोरीहरू काट्नुभएको छ ।”
5 Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.
सियोनलाई घृणा गर्नेहरू सबै जना लाजमा परून् र फर्केर जाऊन् ।
6 They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth,
तिनीहरू घरमाथिका घाँसहरूजस्ता होऊन् जुन बढ्नअगि नै ओइलाउँछ,
7 That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.
जसले कटनी गर्नेको हात भर्न सक्दैन वा अन्नको बिटा बाँध्नेको छाती ढाक्न सक्दैन ।
8 And the passers by have not said, 'The blessing of Jehovah [is] on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!'
त्यो बाटो हिंड्नेहरूले यसो नभनून्, “परमप्रभुको आशिष् तिमीमाथि रहोस् । तिमीलाई परमप्रभुको नाउँमा हामी आशिष् दिन्छौं ।”
