भजन संहिता 138
Yahweh, I thank you with all my inner being. I sing to praise you in front of [the idols of false] gods [to ridicule/belittle them].
2 २ मैं तेरे पवित्र मन्दिर की ओर दण्डवत् करूँगा, और तेरी करुणा और सच्चाई के कारण तेरे नाम का धन्यवाद करूँगा; क्योंकि तूने अपने वचन को और अपने बड़े नाम को सबसे अधिक महत्त्व दिया है।
I bow down while I look towards your sacred temple, and I thank you [MTY] because you faithfully love [us] and faithfully do all that you have promised. You have shown that both you [MTY] and what you have promised to do are greater than anything else.
On the day when I called out to you, you answered me; you enabled me to be strong and brave.
Yahweh, [some day] all the kings of this earth will praise you, because they will have heard what you have said.
They will sing about what you have done; they will sing and say that you are very great.
6 ६ यद्यपि यहोवा महान है, तो भी वह नम्र मनुष्य की ओर दृष्टि करता है; परन्तु अहंकारी को दूर ही से पहचानता है।
Yahweh, you are supreme, but you take care of people [who are considered to be] unimportant. And you know what proud people [are doing], even though they are far away [from you and think that you do not see them].
7 ७ चाहे मैं संकट के बीच में चलूँ तो भी तू मुझे सुरक्षित रखेगा, तू मेरे क्रोधित शत्रुओं के विरुद्ध हाथ बढ़ाएगा, और अपने दाहिने हाथ से मेरा उद्धार करेगा।
When I am in the midst of [many] troubles/difficulties, you save/rescue me. With your hand/power [MTY] you rescue me from my enemies who are angry at me.
8 ८ यहोवा मेरे लिये सब कुछ पूरा करेगा; हे यहोवा, तेरी करुणा सदा की है। तू अपने हाथों के कार्यों को त्याग न दे।
Yahweh, you will do for me everything that you promised; you faithfully love [us] forever. Finish what you started to do [for us, your Israeli people.]
