ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 102
A Prayer for the Humbled One when he is about to faint, and, before Yahweh, poureth out his grief. O Yahweh, hear thou my prayer, and let, my cry for help, unto thee, enter in.
2 ೨ ನನ್ನ ಕಷ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ವಿಮುಖನಾಗಬೇಡ; ನನ್ನ ಮೊರೆಗೆ ಕಿವಿಗೊಡು; ನಾನು ಕೂಗಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಬೇಗನೆ ಸದುತ್ತರವನ್ನು ದಯಪಾಲಿಸು.
Do not hide thy face from me, In the day when I am in distress, —Bend down unto me thine ear, In the day when I call, speedily answer me.
For, consumed in smoke, are my days, And, my bones, like a burning mass, are scorched through;
Smitten like herbage, so is my heart dried up, For I have forgotten to eat my food.
At the noise of my groaning, my bone, hath cleaved, to my flesh:
I am like the pelican of the desert, I have become as an owl among ruins.
I have watched and am become, Like a bird sitting alone upon a housetop.
8 ೮ ವೈರಿಗಳು ಹಗಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ನಿಂದಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ; ನನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ಕೋಪಾವೇಶವುಳ್ಳವರು ಯಾರನ್ನಾದರೂ ಶಪಿಸುವಾಗ, ನನ್ನನ್ನು ದೃಷ್ಟಾಂತಮಾಡಿ ಶಪಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ.
All the day, have mine enemies, reproached me, And, they who are mad against me, by me, have sworn.
For, ashes—like bread, have I eaten, And, my drink—with my tears, have I mingled;
Because of thine indignation and thy wrath, For thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
My days, are like a shadow extended, And, I, as green herbage, do wither.
But, thou, O Yahweh, age-abidingly wilt remain, And the memorial of thee, to generation after generation.
Thou, wilt arise, wilt have compassion upon Zion, Surely it is time to favour her, Surely the time appointed, hath come;
Seeing that thy servants, take pleasure, in her stones, And, her dust, they favour:
That the nations may revere thy Name, O Yahweh, And all the kings of the earth, thy glory.
When Yahweh, hath built up, Zion, Hath appeared in his glory;
Hath turned towards the prayer of the destitute, And not despised their prayer,
This, shall be written, for a later generation, And, a people to be created, will give praise unto Yah: —
19 ೧೯ “ಯೆಹೋವನು ತನ್ನ ಮಹೋನ್ನತವಾದ ಪವಿತ್ರಸ್ಥಾನದಿಂದ ಕೆಳಕ್ಕೆ ನೋಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ; ಆತನು ಪರಲೋಕದಿಂದ ಭೂಮಿಯನ್ನು ದೃಷ್ಟಿಸಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
That he looked down, out of his holy height, Yahweh, from the heavens unto the earth, directed his gaze; —
To hear the groaning of the prisoner, To set free, them who were appointed to death.
21 ೨೧ ಅವರು ಚೀಯೋನಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಯೆಹೋವನ ನಾಮವನ್ನು ವರ್ಣಿಸುವಂತೆಯೂ, ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮಿನಲ್ಲಿ ತನ್ನ ಕೀರ್ತನೆಯನ್ನು ಹಾಡುವಂತೆಯೂ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
To the end the Name of Yahweh, might be celebrated in Zion, And his praise in Jerusalem:
When the peoples, gather themselves together, And the kingdoms, to serve Yahweh.
He hath prostrated, in the way, my strength, —He hath shortened my days.
24 ೨೪ ನನ್ನ ಆಯುಷ್ಯವನ್ನು ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡಿಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ಆದುದರಿಂದ, “ನನ್ನ ದೇವರೇ, ಅರ್ಧಾಯುಷ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಒಯ್ಯಬೇಡ; ನಿನ್ನ ವರ್ಷಗಳು ತಲತಲಾಂತರಕ್ಕೂ ಇರುತ್ತವೆ.
I said, O my GOD, do not remove me in the midst of my days, Throughout the generation of generations, are thy years;
Of old—the earth, thou didst found, And, the work of thy hands, are the heavens;
26 ೨೬ ಅವು ನಾಶವಾಗುವವು; ಆದರೆ ನೀನು ಶಾಶ್ವತವಾಗಿರುತ್ತಿ. ಅವೆಲ್ಲವೂ ವಸ್ತ್ರದಂತೆ ಹಳೆಯದಾಗುವವು. ಉಡುಪಿನಂತೆ ಅವುಗಳನ್ನು ಬದಲಿಸುತ್ತಿ; ಅವು ಮಾರ್ಪಡುವವು.
They, shall perish, But, thou, wilt abide; And, they all, like a garment, shall fall in pieces, As a vesture, wilt thou change them and they shall vanish;
But, thou, art, the same, —And, thy years, shall have no end:
28 ೨೮ ನಿನ್ನ ಸೇವಕರ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಬಾಳುವರು. ಅವರ ಸಂತತಿಯವರು ನಿನ್ನ ಸನ್ನಿಧಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ಥಿರವಾಗಿರುವರು” ಎಂದು ಮೊರೆಯಿಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
The children of thy servants, shall continue, —And, their seed, before thee, be established.
