भजन संहिता 102
1 १ दीन जन की उस समय की प्रार्थना जब वह दुःख का मारा अपने शोक की बातें यहोवा के सामने खोलकर कहता हो हे यहोवा, मेरी प्रार्थना सुन; मेरी दुहाई तुझ तक पहुँचे!
A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, LORD! Let my cry come to you.
2 २ मेरे संकट के दिन अपना मुख मुझसे न छिपा ले; अपना कान मेरी ओर लगा; जिस समय मैं पुकारूँ, उसी समय फुर्ती से मेरी सुन ले!
Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.
My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8 ८ मेरे शत्रु लगातार मेरी नामधराई करते हैं, जो मेरे विरुद्ध ठट्ठा करते है, वह मेरे नाम से श्राप देते हैं।
My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
12 १२ परन्तु हे यहोवा, तू सदैव विराजमान रहेगा; और जिस नाम से तेरा स्मरण होता है, वह पीढ़ी से पीढ़ी तक बना रहेगा।
But you, LORD, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
So the nations will fear the LORD’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
For the LORD has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
18 १८ यह बात आनेवाली पीढ़ी के लिये लिखी जाएगी, ताकि एक जाति जो उत्पन्न होगी, वह यहोवा की स्तुति करे।
This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise the LORD,
for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, the LORD saw the earth,
to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
that men may declare the LORD’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.
24 २४ मैंने कहा, “हे मेरे परमेश्वर, मुझे आधी आयु में न उठा ले, तेरे वर्ष पीढ़ी से पीढ़ी तक बने रहेंगे!”
I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.
Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.
26 २६ वह तो नाश होगा, परन्तु तू बना रहेगा; और वह सब कपड़े के समान पुराना हो जाएगा। तू उसको वस्त्र के समान बदलेगा, और वह मिट जाएगा;
They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
But you are the same. Your years will have no end.
The children of your servants will continue. Their offspring will be established before you.”
