ಸಮುವೇಲನು - ದ್ವಿತೀಯ ಭಾಗ 22
1 ೧ ಯೆಹೋವನು ದಾವೀದನನ್ನು ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಶತ್ರುಗಳ ಕೈಗೂ ಸೌಲನ ಕೈಗೂ ಸಿಕ್ಕದಂತೆ ತಪ್ಪಿಸಿದಾಗ ಅವನು ಯೆಹೋವನ ಘನಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಈ ಜಯ ಗೀತೆಯನ್ನು ರಚಿಸಿ ಹೀಗೆ ಹಾಡಿದನು:
And David spoke unto the Lord the words of this song, and on the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul.
And he said, Lord, my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer;
3 ೩ ಆತನು ನನ್ನ ಆಶ್ರಯಗಿರಿಯಾಗಿರುವ ದೇವರೂ, ನನ್ನ ಗುರಾಣಿಯೂ ನನ್ನ ರಕ್ಷಣೆಯ ಕೊಂಬೂ, ನನ್ನ ದುರ್ಗವೂ, ನನ್ನ ಶರಣನೂ, ಹಿಂಸೆಯಿಂದ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸುವವನೂ ಆಗಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
God, my rock, in whom I trust; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour! from violence dost thou save me!
Praised, I cried, be the Lord, and from my enemies was I saved.
For the waves of death encompassed me, the floods of destruction made me afraid;
The bonds of hell encircled me, the snares of death seized on me: (Sheol h7585)
7 ೭ ಅಂಥ ಕಷ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾನು ಯೆಹೋವನಿಗೆ ಮೊರೆಯಿಟ್ಟೆನು. ನನ್ನ ದೇವರನ್ನು ಪ್ರಾರ್ಥಿಸಿದೆನು. ಆತನು ತನ್ನ ಮಂದಿರದಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಸ್ವರವನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದನು. ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರಾರ್ಥನೆ ಆತನ ಸನ್ನಿಧಿಗೆ ಕೇಳಿಸಿತು.
[When] in my distress I called upon the Lord, and to my God I cried; and he heard from his temple my voice, and my complaint [entered] into his ears.
Then shook and trembled the earth; the foundations of the heavens were moved; and they shook, because he was wroth.
9 ೯ ಆತನ ಮೂಗಿನಿಂದ ಹೊಗೆಯು ಬಂದಿತು. ಆತನ ಬಾಯಿಂದ ಅಗ್ನಿಜ್ವಾಲೆಯು ಹೊರಟು ಸಿಕ್ಕಿದ್ದೆಲ್ಲವನ್ನು ದಹಿಸಿ ಕೆಂಡವನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಿತು.
Smoke went up in his anger, and consuming fire out of his mouth, coals flamed forth from him.
And he bent the heavens, and came down, and thick darkness was under his feet.
And he rode upon a cherub, and flew along, and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
And he made darkness round about him into pavilions, heavy masses of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
From the brightness before him flamed forth coals of fire.
The Lord thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered forth his voice.
And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
And then were seen the channels of the sea, there were laid open the foundations of the world; at the rebuke of the Lord, through the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
He stretched out from above [his hand], he took me; he drew me out from the mighty waters.
He delivered me from my enemy, the strong, from those that hated me, when they were too mighty for me.
They overcame me on the day of my calamity; but the Lord became my stay;
And he brought me forth into a large space: he delivered me, because he had delight in me.
The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the purity of my hands did he recompense me.
For I had kept the ways of the Lord, and had not wickedly departed from my God.
For all his ordinances were before me, and from none of his statutes did I depart.
I was also upright toward him, and I guarded myself against my iniquity.
25 ೨೫ ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ನನ್ನ ನೀತಿಗೆ ತಕ್ಕಂತೆಯೂ, ಆತನ ದೃಷ್ಟಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ನಿರಪರಾಧಕ್ಕೆ ತಕ್ಕಂತೆಯೂ ಯೆಹೋವನು ನನಗೆ ತಕ್ಕ ಪ್ರತಿಫಲವನ್ನು ಕೊಟ್ಟನು.
Therefore did the Lord recompense me according to my righteousness, according to my purity before his eyes.
With the kind thou wilt show thyself kind; with the upright mighty man thou wilt show thyself upright.
With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt wage a contest.
And the afflicted people thou wilt save; but thy eyes are upon the haughty, [that] thou mayest bring [them] down.
For thou art my lamp, O Lord! and the Lord will enlighten my darkness.
For [aided] by thee I run through a troop: [helped] by my God I leap over a wall.
31 ೩೧ ದೇವರ ಮಾರ್ಗವು ಯಾವ ದೋಷವೂ ಇಲ್ಲದ್ದು ಯೆಹೋವನ ವಚನವು ಶುದ್ಧವಾದದ್ದು. ಆತನು ಆಶ್ರಿತರೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೆ ಗುರಾಣಿಯಾಗಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
As for God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried; he is a shield to all that trust in him.
For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, save our God?
God is my strength and power; and he rendereth free from obstruction my way.
He maketh my feet like those of the hinds, and upon my high places he causeth me to stand.
He teaches my hands for the war, so that a brazen bow is bent by my arms.
And thou gavest me the shield of thy salvation; and thy assistance hath made me great.
Thou enlargest my steps under me, so that my joints do not slip.
I pursue my enemies and destroy them; and I return not again until I have made an end of them.
And I make an end of them, and I crush them, that they cannot rise; and they fall under my feet.
40 ೪೦ ನೀನು ನನಗೆ ಯುದ್ಧಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಶೌರ್ಯವೆಂಬ ನಡುಕಟ್ಟನ್ನು ಬಿಗಿದಿದ್ದಿ. ಎದುರಾಳಿಗಳನ್ನು ಕುಗ್ಗಿಸಿ ನನಗೆ ಅಧೀನಮಾಡಿದ್ದಿ.
For thou hast girded me with strength for the war; thou subduest my opponents under me.
And my enemies thou causest to turn their back to me; those that hate me, —that I may destroy them.
They look about, but there is none to help; unto the Lord—but he answereth them not.
43 ೪೩ ಭೂಮಿಯ ಧೂಳನ್ನೋ ಎಂಬಂತೆ ಅವರನ್ನು ಪುಡಿಪುಡಿ ಮಾಡಿದೆನು. ಬೀದಿಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಕೆಸರನ್ನೋ ಎಂಬಂತೆ ಅವರನ್ನು ತುಳಿದು ಎಸೆದುಬಿಟ್ಟೆನು.
And I beat them small as the dust of the earth; as the mire of the street, I stamp them, I tread them down.
44 ೪೪ ನನ್ನ ಜನರ ಕಲಹಗಳಿಗೆ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ತಪ್ಪಿಸಿದ್ದಿ. ಜನಾಂಗಗಳಿಗೆ ದೊರೆಯಾಗುವಂತೆ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಉಳಿಸಿದ್ದಿ. ನಾನರಿಯದ ಜನಾಂಗದವರು ಸಹ ನನಗೆ ಅಧೀನರಾಗುವರು.
Thou hast also delivered me from the contests of my people: thou preservest me to be the head of nations, a people which I know not shall serve me.
The children of the stranger shall utter flattery unto me; as soon as their ear heareth they shall be obedient unto me.
The children of the stranger shall fade away, and come forth tottering out of their close places.
The Lord liveth, and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God, the Rock of my salvation;
The God, that granteth me vengeance, and bringeth down nations under me;
49 ೪೯ ಶತ್ರುಗಳಿಂದ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಬಿಡಿಸುವಾತನೇ, ನೀನು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ನನ್ನ ಎದುರಾಳಿಗಳಿಂದ ತಪ್ಪಿಸಿ ಉನ್ನತಪಡಿಸುತ್ತಿ. ಬಲಾತ್ಕಾರಿಗಳಿಂದ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಿ.
And that bringeth me forth from my enemies: also above my opponents thou liftest me up, from the man of violence thou deliverest me.
50 ೫೦ ಈ ಕಾರಣದಿಂದ ಯೆಹೋವನೇ, ಅನ್ಯಜನಾಂಗಗಳ ಮಧ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಸ್ತುತಿಸುವೆನು. ನಿನ್ನ ನಾಮವನ್ನು ಸಂಕೀರ್ತಿಸುವೆನು.
Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the nations, and unto thy name will I sing praises;
51 ೫೧ ಆತನು ತಾನು ನೇಮಿಸಿದ ಅರಸನಿಗೋಸ್ಕರ ವಿಶೇಷ ರಕ್ಷಣೆಯನ್ನು ದಯಪಾಲಿಸುವವನಾಗಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ತಾನು ಅಭಿಷೇಕಿಸಿದ ದಾವೀದನಿಗೂ, ಅವನ ಸಂತತಿಯವರೆಗೆ ಸದಾಕಾಲವೂ ಕೃಪೆಯನ್ನು ಅನುಗ್ರಹಿಸುವವನಾಗಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
[To] the tower of salvation of his king, and who showeth kindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed forever.
