भजन संहिता 22
1 १ प्रधान बजानेवाले के लिये अभ्येलेरशर राग में दाऊद का भजन हे मेरे परमेश्वर, हे मेरे परमेश्वर, तूने मुझे क्यों छोड़ दिया? तू मेरी पुकार से और मेरी सहायता करने से क्यों दूर रहता है? मेरा उद्धार कहाँ है?
My God, my God, why have you abandoned/deserted me? Why do you stay so far from me, and why do you not hear/help me [RHQ]? Why do you not hear me when I am groaning?
2 २ हे मेरे परमेश्वर, मैं दिन को पुकारता हूँ परन्तु तू उत्तर नहीं देता; और रात को भी मैं चुप नहीं रहता।
My God, every day I call to you during the daytime and during the night, but you do not answer me, so I am not able to sleep.
But you are holy. You sit on your throne as king, and [we the people of] Israel praise you [PRS].
Our ancestors trusted in you. [Because] they trusted in you, you rescued them.
When they cried out to you, you saved them. They trusted in you, and (they were not disappointed/you [saved them] as you said that you would).
6 ६ परन्तु मैं तो कीड़ा हूँ, मनुष्य नहीं; मनुष्यों में मेरी नामधराई है, और लोगों में मेरा अपमान होता है।
But [you have not rescued me] [People despise me and consider that I am not a man]; [they think that] I am [as worthless as] a worm! Everyone [HYP] scorns me and despises me.
Everyone who sees me [HYP] makes fun of me. They sneer at me and [insult me by] shaking their heads [at me as though I were an evil man]. They say,
8 ८ वे कहते है “वह यहोवा पर भरोसा करता है, यहोवा उसको छुड़ाए, वह उसको उबारे क्योंकि वह उससे प्रसन्न है।”
“He trusts in Yahweh, so Yahweh should save him! [He says that] Yahweh is very pleased with him; if that is so, Yahweh should rescue him!”
9 ९ परन्तु तू ही ने मुझे गर्भ से निकाला; जब मैं दूध पीता बच्चा था, तब ही से तूने मुझे भरोसा रखना सिखाया।
[Why do] you [not] protect me [now as you did] when I was born? I was safe even when I was (nursing/drinking milk from my mother’s breasts).
[It was as though] you adopted me right when I was born. You have (been my God/taken care of me) ever since I was born.
So, (do not stay far from/stay close to) [LIT] me now because [enemies who will cause me much] trouble are near me, and there is no one [else] who can help me.
[My enemies] surround me [like] a herd/group of wild bulls. [Fierce people, like those] strong bulls that graze [on the hills] in Bashan [area], encircle me.
[They are like] roaring lions that are attacking the animals that they want to kill [MET] [and eat]; they rush toward me [to kill] me; they [are like lions that] have their mouths open, [ready to tear their victims to pieces] [MET].
14 १४ मैं जल के समान बह गया, और मेरी सब हड्डियों के जोड़ उखड़ गए: मेरा हृदय मोम हो गया, वह मेरी देह के भीतर पिघल गया।
I am completely exhausted [MET], and all my bones are out of their joints/places. I [no longer expect that God will save me]; [that expectation is gone completely], like wax that has melted away.
15 १५ मेरा बल टूट गया, मैं ठीकरा हो गया; और मेरी जीभ मेरे तालू से चिपक गई; और तू मुझे मारकर मिट्टी में मिला देता है।
My strength is [all dried up] [MET] like a broken piece of a clay jar that has dried [in the sun]. [I am so thirsty that] my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. O God, [I think that you are about to let] me die and become dirt!
16 १६ क्योंकि कुत्तों ने मुझे घेर लिया है; कुकर्मियों की मण्डली मेरे चारों ओर मुझे घेरे हुए है; वह मेरे हाथ और मेरे पैर छेदते हैं।
My enemies [MET] surround me like a pack/group of wild dogs. A group of evil men has encircled me, [ready to attack me]. They have [already] smashed my hands and my feet.
[I am so weak and thin that] my bones can be seen and counted. My enemies stare at me and (gloat/are happy) about [what has happened to] me.
They looked at the clothes that I [was wearing] and gambled to determine which piece each of them would get.
O Yahweh, do not stay far away from me! You who are my [source of] strength, come quickly and help me!
Rescue me from [those who want to kill me with] their swords. Save me from those who are [like wild/fierce] dogs [MET].
Snatch me away from [my enemies who are] like lions whose jaws [are already open, ready to chew me up] Grab me away from [those men who are like] wild oxen [that attack other animals with] their horns [MET]!
[But you have saved me, so] I will declare to my fellow [Israelis] how great you [MTY] are. I will praise you among the group of your people gathered [to worship you].
23 २३ हे यहोवा के डरवैयों, उसकी स्तुति करो! हे याकूब के वंश, तुम सब उसकी महिमा करो! हे इस्राएल के वंश, तुम उसका भय मानो!
You people who have an awesome respect for Yahweh, praise him! All you who are descended from Jacob, honor Yahweh! All you Israeli people, revere him!
24 २४ क्योंकि उसने दुःखी को तुच्छ नहीं जाना और न उससे घृणा करता है, यहोवा ने उससे अपना मुख नहीं छिपाया; पर जब उसने उसकी दुहाई दी, तब उसकी सुन ली।
He does not despise or ignore those who are suffering; he does not hide (his face/himself) from them. He has listened to them when they cried out to him for help.
25 २५ बड़ी सभा में मेरा स्तुति करना तेरी ही ओर से होता है; मैं अपनी मन्नतों को उसके भय रखनेवालों के सामने पूरा करूँगा।
Yahweh, in the great gathering [of your people], I will praise you for what you have done. In the presence of those who revere you, I will offer [the sacrifices] that I promised.
26 २६ नम्र लोग भोजन करके तृप्त होंगे; जो यहोवा के खोजी हैं, वे उसकी स्तुति करेंगे। तुम्हारे प्राण सर्वदा जीवित रहें!
The poor people [whom I have invited to the meal] will eat as much as they want. All who come worship Yahweh will praise him. I pray that [God will enable] you all to live a long and happy life!
27 २७ पृथ्वी के सब दूर-दूर देशों के लोग उसको स्मरण करेंगे और उसकी ओर फिरेंगे; और जाति-जाति के सब कुल तेरे सामने दण्डवत् करेंगे।
I pray that [people in all nations, even] in the remote areas, will think about Yahweh and turn to him, and that people from all the clans in the world will bow down before him.
Because Yahweh is the king! He rules all the nations.
29 २९ पृथ्वी के सब हष्ट-पुष्ट लोग भोजन करके दण्डवत् करेंगे; वे सब जो मिट्टी में मिल जाते हैं और अपना-अपना प्राण नहीं बचा सकते, वे सब उसी के सामने घुटने टेकेंगे।
I desire that all the rich people on the earth will bow before him. Some day they will die, but I want them to prostrate themselves on the ground in his presence [before they die].
People (in the future generations/who have not been born yet) will also serve Yahweh. Our descendants will be told about what Yahweh [has done].
31 ३१ वे आएँगे और उसके धार्मिकता के कामों को एक वंश पर जो उत्पन्न होगा यह कहकर प्रगट करेंगे कि उसने ऐसे-ऐसे अद्भुत काम किए।
People who are not yet born, [who will live in future years], will be told how Yahweh rescued his people. People will tell them, “Yahweh did it!”
