ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 102
The prayer of the poor man, when he was anxious, and poured out his supplication before the Lord. Hear, O Lord, my prayer: and let my cry come to thee.
2 ೨ ನನ್ನ ಕಷ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ವಿಮುಖನಾಗಬೇಡ; ನನ್ನ ಮೊರೆಗೆ ಕಿವಿಗೊಡು; ನಾನು ಕೂಗಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಬೇಗನೆ ಸದುತ್ತರವನ್ನು ದಯಪಾಲಿಸು.
Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily.
For my days are vanished like smoke: and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire.
I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: because I forgot to eat my bread.
Through the voice of my groaning, my bone hath cleaved to my flesh.
I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: I am like a night raven in the house.
I have watched, and am become as a sparrow all alone on the housetop.
8 ೮ ವೈರಿಗಳು ಹಗಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ನಿಂದಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ; ನನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ಕೋಪಾವೇಶವುಳ್ಳವರು ಯಾರನ್ನಾದರೂ ಶಪಿಸುವಾಗ, ನನ್ನನ್ನು ದೃಷ್ಟಾಂತಮಾಡಿ ಶಪಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ.
All the day long my enemies reproached me: and they that praised me did swear against me.
For I did eat ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.
Because of thy anger and indignation: for having lifted me up thou hast thrown me down.
My days have declined like a shadow, and I am withered like grass.
But thou, O Lord, endurest for ever: and thy memorial to all generations.
Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.
For the stones thereof have pleased thy servants: and they shall have pity on the earth thereof.
And the Gentiles shall fear thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
For the Lord hath built up Sion: and he shall be seen in his glory.
He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: and he hath not despised their petition.
Let these things be written unto another generation: and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord:
19 ೧೯ “ಯೆಹೋವನು ತನ್ನ ಮಹೋನ್ನತವಾದ ಪವಿತ್ರಸ್ಥಾನದಿಂದ ಕೆಳಕ್ಕೆ ನೋಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ; ಆತನು ಪರಲೋಕದಿಂದ ಭೂಮಿಯನ್ನು ದೃಷ್ಟಿಸಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
Because he hath looked forth from his high sanctuary: from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth.
That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that he might release the children of the slain:
21 ೨೧ ಅವರು ಚೀಯೋನಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಯೆಹೋವನ ನಾಮವನ್ನು ವರ್ಣಿಸುವಂತೆಯೂ, ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮಿನಲ್ಲಿ ತನ್ನ ಕೀರ್ತನೆಯನ್ನು ಹಾಡುವಂತೆಯೂ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: and his praise in Jerusalem;
When the people assemble together, and kings, to serve the Lord.
He answered him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days.
24 ೨೪ ನನ್ನ ಆಯುಷ್ಯವನ್ನು ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡಿಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ಆದುದರಿಂದ, “ನನ್ನ ದೇವರೇ, ಅರ್ಧಾಯುಷ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಒಯ್ಯಬೇಡ; ನಿನ್ನ ವರ್ಷಗಳು ತಲತಲಾಂತರಕ್ಕೂ ಇರುತ್ತವೆ.
Call me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are unto generation and generation.
In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
26 ೨೬ ಅವು ನಾಶವಾಗುವವು; ಆದರೆ ನೀನು ಶಾಶ್ವತವಾಗಿರುತ್ತಿ. ಅವೆಲ್ಲವೂ ವಸ್ತ್ರದಂತೆ ಹಳೆಯದಾಗುವವು. ಉಡುಪಿನಂತೆ ಅವುಗಳನ್ನು ಬದಲಿಸುತ್ತಿ; ಅವು ಮಾರ್ಪಡುವವು.
They shall perish but thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.
But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.
28 ೨೮ ನಿನ್ನ ಸೇವಕರ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಬಾಳುವರು. ಅವರ ಸಂತತಿಯವರು ನಿನ್ನ ಸನ್ನಿಧಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ಥಿರವಾಗಿರುವರು” ಎಂದು ಮೊರೆಯಿಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
The children of thy servants shall continue: and their seed shall be directed for ever.
