ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 60
1 ೧ ಪ್ರಧಾನಗಾಯಕನ ಕೀರ್ತನ ಸಂಗ್ರಹದಿಂದ ಆರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡದ್ದು; ಷೂಷನ್ ಎದೂತೆಂಬ ರಾಗ; ದಾವೀದನು ಅರಾಮ್ ರಾಜ್ಯಗಳ ಸಂಗಡ ಯುದ್ಧ ಮಾಡುವಷ್ಟರೊಳಗೆ ಯೋವಾಬನು ಹಿಂದಿರುಗಿ ಹೋಗಿ ಉಪ್ಪಿನ ತಗ್ಗಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹನ್ನೆರಡು ಸಾವಿರ ಎದೋಮ್ಯರನ್ನು ಹೊಡೆದಾಗ ದಾವೀದನು ರಚಿಸಿದ ಕಾವ್ಯ. ಬಾಯಿಪಾಠ ಮಾಡಿಸತಕ್ಕದ್ದು. ದೇವರೇ, ನೀನು ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕೋಪದಿಂದ ತಳ್ಳಿ ಕೆಡವಿಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೀ; ನಮ್ಮ ರಕ್ಷಣಾ ಸಾಧನವನ್ನು ಮುರಿದುಬಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೀ; ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಪುನಃ ಸ್ಥಿರವಾಗಿ ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸು.
[I prayed], “God, you have rejected us [Israelis]! Because you have been angry [with us], you have [enabled our enemies] to break through our ranks. [Please] enable us to be strong again!
[When we were defeated, it was as though] [MET] there was a big earthquake in our land that caused the ground to split open. So now, [just as only you can] cause the cracks in the land to disappear, [help our army to be strong again], because [it is as though] our country is (falling apart/being destroyed).
You have caused [us], your people, to suffer very much; [it is as though] you forced us to drink [strong] wine that caused us to stagger around [after we became drunk].
But you have raised a battle flag for those who revere you in order that they can gather around it and not [be killed by the enemies’] arrows.
Answer our [prayers] and enable us by your power [MTY] to defeat [our enemies] in order that we, the people whom you love, will be saved.”
6 ೬ ದೇವರು ತನ್ನ ಪವಿತ್ರಸ್ಥಳದಲ್ಲಿ ನುಡಿದಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ಜಯಘೋಷಮಾಡುವೆನು; ಶೆಖೆಮ್ ಪ್ರದೇಶವನ್ನು ಹಂಚುವೆನು. ಸುಖೋತ್ ಬಯಲನ್ನು ಅಳೆದುಕೊಡುವೆನು.
[Then] God [answered my prayer and] spoke from his temple, saying, “Because I have conquered [your enemies], I will divide up [everything in] Shechem [city], and I will distribute it among my people [the land in] Succoth Valley.
7 ೭ ಗಿಲ್ಯಾದ್ ಸೀಮೆಯೂ ಮತ್ತು ಮನಸ್ಸೆಯ ದೇಶವೂ ನನ್ನವು; ಎಫ್ರಾಯೀಮ್ ಗೋತ್ರವು ನನಗೆ ಶಿರಸ್ತ್ರಾಣ. ನನ್ನ ರಾಜದಂಡವು ಯೆಹೂದ ಕುಲವೇ.
The Gilead [region] is mine; the [people of the tribe of] Manasseh are mine; [the tribe of] Ephraim is [like] my helmet [MET]; and [the tribe of] Judah is [like] the (scepter/stick [that I hold which shows that I am the ruler]) [MET];
8 ೮ ಮೋವಾಬ್ ಪ್ರದೇಶವು ನನ್ನ ಸ್ನಾನಪಾತ್ರೆಯು; ಎದೋಮ್ ಸೀಮೆ ನನ್ನ ಪಾದರಕ್ಷೆಗಳನ್ನು ಬಿಡುವ ಸ್ಥಳ. ಫಿಲಿಷ್ಟಿಯ ದೇಶವೇ ನಾನು ನಿನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ಜಯಹೊಂದಿ ನಿನ್ನ ವಿಷಯವಾಗಿ ಜಯಘೋಷ ಮಾಡುವೆನು.
but the Moab [region] is [like] my washbasin [MET]; I throw my sandal in the Edom [area to show that it belongs to me]; I shout triumphantly because I have defeated [the people of] the Philistia [area].”
9 ೯ ಕೋಟೆಕೊತ್ತಲುಗಳುಳ್ಳ ನಗರಕ್ಕೆ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಕರೆದುಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗುವವರು ಯಾರು? ಎದೋಮ್ ಪ್ರಾಂತ್ಯದೊಳಗೆ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಸೇರಿಸುವವರು ಯಾರು?
[Because I want to defeat the people of] Edom, (who will lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it?/I want someone to lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it.)” [RHQ]
So, God, we [desire/hope that] [RHQ] you have not truly abandoned us, and that you will go with us when our armies march out [to fight our enemies].
[We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
