ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 69
1 ೧ ಪ್ರಧಾನಗಾಯಕನ ಕೀರ್ತನ ಸಂಗ್ರಹದಿಂದ ಆರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡದ್ದು. ಶೋಶನ್ನೀಮೆಂಬ ರಾಗದ ಮೇಲೆ ಹಾಡತಕ್ಕದ್ದು; ದಾವೀದನ ಕೀರ್ತನೆ. ದೇವರೇ, ರಕ್ಷಿಸು; ಜಲವು ನನ್ನ ಕುತ್ತಿಗೆಯವರೆಗೂ ಏರಿಬಂದಿದೆ.
For the end, [a Psalm] of David, for alternate [strains]. Save me, O God; for the waters have come in to my soul.
2 ೨ ಆಳವಾದ ಕೆಸರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಸಿಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ; ನೆಲೆ ಸಿಕ್ಕುತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ. ಜಲರಾಶಿಯೊಳಗೆ ಮುಳುಗುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ; ಪ್ರವಾಹವು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಹೊಡೆದುಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗುತ್ತಿದೆ.
I am stuck fast in deep mire, and there is no standing: I am come in to the depths of the sea, and a storm has overwhelmed me.
3 ೩ ಮೊರೆಯಿಟ್ಟು ಬೇಸತ್ತು ಹೋಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ; ಗಂಟಲು ಒಣಗಿಹೋಯಿತು. ನನ್ನ ದೇವರನ್ನು ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಾ ಕಣ್ಣುಗಳು ಕ್ಷೀಣಿಸುತ್ತವೆ.
I am weary [of] crying, my throat has become hoarse; mine eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.
4 ೪ ನಿಷ್ಕಾರಣ ದ್ವೇಷಿಗಳು ನನ್ನ ತಲೆಗೂದಲುಗಳಿಗಿಂತ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ; ನಿರಾಕಾರಣವಾಗಿ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಮುಗಿಸಿಬಿಡಬೇಕೆಂದಿರುವ ವೈರಿಗಳು ಬಲಿಷ್ಠರಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ನಾನು ಅಪಹರಿಸದಿದ್ದರೂ ನನ್ನಿಂದ ದಂಡ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಂಡರಲ್ಲಾ.
They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: my enemies that persecute me unrighteously are strengthened: then I restored that which I took not away.
O God, you know my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from you.
6 ೬ ಸೇನಾಧೀಶ್ವರನೇ, ಯೆಹೋವನೇ, ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ನಂಬಿದವರಿಗೆ ನನ್ನಿಂದ ನಿರಾಶೆಯಾಗದಿರಲಿ; ಇಸ್ರಾಯೇಲರ ದೇವರೇ, ನಿನ್ನ ದರ್ಶನವನ್ನು ಬಯಸುವವರು ನನ್ನಿಂದ ಅಪಮಾನಕ್ಕೆ ಗುರಿಯಾಗದಿರಲಿ.
Let not them that wait on you, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek you, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.
For I have suffered reproach for your sake; shame has covered my face.
I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.
For the zeal of your house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.
And I bowed down my soul with fasting, and that was made my reproach.
And I put on sackcloth for my covering; and I became a proverb to them.
12 ೧೨ ಊರ ಬಾಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಳಿತುಕೊಳ್ಳುವವರ ಆಡು ಮಾತಿಗೆ ಗುರಿಯಾಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಕುಡುಕರು ನನ್ನ ವಿಷಯವನ್ನು ಹಾಡಿ ಪರಿಹಾಸ್ಯ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಾರೆ.
They that sit in the gate talked against me, and they that drank wine sang against me.
13 ೧೩ ಯೆಹೋವನೇ, ನಾನಾದರೋ ನಿನಗೆ ಮೊರೆಯಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೇನೆ; ಇದು ನಿನ್ನ ಪ್ರಸನ್ನತೆಗೆ ಸಕಾಲ. ಪ್ರೇಮಪೂರ್ಣನಾದ ದೇವನೇ, ಸತ್ಯವಂತನಾದ ರಕ್ಷಕನೇ, ಸದುತ್ತರವನ್ನು ದಯಪಾಲಿಸು.
But I [will cry] to you, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
Save me from the mire, that I stick not [in it]: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and from the deep waters.
15 ೧೫ ಪ್ರವಾಹವು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಬಡಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗದಿರಲಿ; ಅಗಾಧವು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಒಳಗೆ ಎಳೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳದಿರಲಿ; ಪಾತಾಳವು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ನುಂಗದಿರಲಿ.
Let not the waterflood drown me, nor let the deep swallow me up; neither let the well shut its mouth upon me.
16 ೧೬ ಯೆಹೋವನೇ, ನನ್ನ ಮೊರೆಯನ್ನು ಲಾಲಿಸು; ನಿನ್ನ ಕೃಪೆಯು ಶುಭಕರವಾಗಿದೆಯಲ್ಲಾ. ಕರುಣಾನಿಧಿಯೇ, ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಕಟಾಕ್ಷಿಸು.
Hear me, O Lord; for your mercy is good: according to the multitude of your compassions look upon me.
And turn not away your face from your servant; for I am afflicted: hear me speedily.
Draw near to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
For you know my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before you.
20 ೨೦ ನಿಂದೆಯಿಂದ ನಿರಾಶೆಗೊಂಡು ಕುಂದಿಹೋಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಕರುಣಾಳುಗಳನ್ನು ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿಸಿದೆ; ದೊರೆಯಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಸಂತೈಸುವವರನ್ನು ಹಾರೈಸಿದೆ; ಸಿಕ್ಕಲಿಲ್ಲ.
My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.
They gave [me] also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.
Let their table before them be for a snare, and for a recompense, and for a stumbling block.
Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.
Pour out your wrath upon them, and let the fury of your anger take hold on them.
Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:
Because they persecuted him whom you have struck; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into your righteousness.
Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.
I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of your countenance has helped me.
I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;
and [this] shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.
Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and you shall live.
For the Lord hears the poor, and does not set at nothing his fettered ones.
Let the heavens and the earth raise him, the sea, and all things moving in them.
35 ೩೫ ದೇವರು ಚೀಯೋನ್ ಪಟ್ಟಣವನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸಿ, ಯೆಹೂದ ದೇಶದ ನಗರಗಳನ್ನು ಕಟ್ಟಿಸುವನು; ಆತನ ಪ್ರಜೆಗಳು ಅಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಸಮಾಡುತ್ತಾ ಅದನ್ನು ಸ್ವದೇಶವನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವರು.
For God will save Sion, and the cities of Judea shall be built; and [men] shall dwell there, and inherit it.
And the seed of his servants shall possess it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
