भजन संहिता 109
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O God of my praise, be not silent,
For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit, Against me they have opened, They have spoken with me — A tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred!
They have compassed me about, And they fight me without cause.
For my love they oppose me, and I — prayer!
And they set against me evil for good, And hatred for my love.
Appoint Thou over him the wicked, And an adversary standeth at his right hand.
In his being judged, he goeth forth wicked, And his prayer is for sin.
His days are few, his oversight another taketh,
His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 १० और उसके बच्चे मारे-मारे फिरें, और भीख माँगा करे; उनको अपने उजड़े हुए घर से दूर जाकर टुकड़े माँगना पड़े!
And wander continually do his sons, Yea, they have begged, And have sought out of their dry places.
An exactor layeth a snare for all that he hath, And strangers spoil his labour.
He hath none to extend kindness, Nor is there one showing favour to his orphans.
His posterity is for cutting off, In another generation is their name blotted out.
The iniquity of his fathers Is remembered unto Jehovah, And the sin of his mother is not blotted out.
They are before Jehovah continually, And He cutteth off from earth their memorial.
16 १६ क्योंकि वह दुष्ट, करुणा करना भूल गया वरन् दीन और दरिद्र को सताता था और मार डालने की इच्छा से खेदित मनवालों के पीछे पड़ा रहता था।
Because that he hath not remembered to do kindness, And pursueth the poor man and needy, And the smitten of heart — to slay,
17 १७ वह श्राप देने से प्रीति रखता था, और श्राप उस पर आ पड़ा; वह आशीर्वाद देने से प्रसन्न न होता था, इसलिए आशीर्वाद उससे दूर रहा।
And he loveth reviling, and it meeteth him, And he hath not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
18 १८ वह श्राप देना वस्त्र के समान पहनता था, और वह उसके पेट में जल के समान और उसकी हड्डियों में तेल के समान समा गया।
And he putteth on reviling as his robe, And it cometh in as water into his midst, And as oil into his bones.
It is to him as apparel — he covereth himself, And for a continual girdle he girdeth it on.
This [is] the wage of mine accusers from Jehovah, And of those speaking evil against my soul.
21 २१ परन्तु हे यहोवा प्रभु, तू अपने नाम के निमित्त मुझसे बर्ताव कर; तेरी करुणा तो बड़ी है, इसलिए तू मुझे छुटकारा दे!
And Thou, O Jehovah Lord, Deal with me for Thy name's sake, Because Thy kindness [is] good, deliver me.
For I [am] poor and needy, And my heart hath been pierced in my midst.
As a shadow when it is stretched out I have gone, I have been driven away as a locust.
My knees have been feeble from fasting, And my flesh hath failed of fatness.
And I — I have been a reproach to them, They see me, they shake their head.
Help me, O Jehovah my God, Save me, according to Thy kindness.
And they know that this [is] Thy hand, Thou, O Jehovah, Thou hast done it.
28 २८ वे मुझे कोसते तो रहें, परन्तु तू आशीष दे! वे तो उठते ही लज्जित हों, परन्तु तेरा दास आनन्दित हो!
They revile, and Thou dost bless, They have risen, and are ashamed, And Thy servant doth rejoice.
Mine accusers put on blushing, and are covered, As an upper robe [is] their shame.
I thank Jehovah greatly with my mouth, And in the midst of many I praise Him,
For He standeth at the right hand of the needy, To save from those judging his soul.
