विलाप 5
1 हे परमप्रभु, हामीमाथि जे भएको छ, सो सम्झनुहोस् । हाम्रो अपमान हेर्नुहोस्, र विचार गर्नुहोस् ।
Keep in mind, O Lord, what has come to us: take note and see our shame.
2 हाम्रो उत्तराधिकार पराईहरू र हाम्रा घरहरू विदेशीहरूलाई दिइए ।
Our heritage is given up to men of strange lands, our houses to those who are not our countrymen.
3 हामी अनाथ, पितृहीन भएका छौँ, र हाम्रा आमाहरू विधवाजस्ता छन् ।
We are children without fathers, our mothers are like widows.
4 हामीले पिउने पानीको लागि र हाम्रै दाउरा किन्न हामीले चाँदीको दाम तिर्नुपर्छ ।
We give money for a drink of water, we get our wood for a price.
5 हामीलाई पछ्याउनेहरू हाम्रो छेउमा छन् । हामी थाकेका छौँ, र हामीलाई चैन छैन ।
Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.
6 पर्याप्त खानाको लागि हामीले आफैलाई मिश्र र अश्शूरमा सुम्पिदिएका छौँ ।
We have given our hands to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians so that we might have enough bread.
7 हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलेपाप गरे, र अब तिनीहरू छैनन्, र हामीले तिनीहरूका अधर्मको फल भोग्दछौँ ।
Our fathers were sinners and are dead; and the weight of their evil-doing is on us.
8 कमाराहरूले हामीमाथि शासन गर्छन्, र हामीलाई तिनीहरूको हातबाट छुटकारा दिने कोही छैन ।
Servants are ruling over us, and there is no one to make us free from their hands.
9 उजाड-स्थानमा भएको तरवारको कारण हाम्रा जीवन जोखिममा पारेर मात्रै हामी रोटी पाउँछौँ ।
We put our lives in danger to get our bread, because of the sword of the waste land.
10 भोकको रापले गर्दा हाम्रो छाला चुलोझैँ तातिएको छ ।
Our skin is heated like an oven because of our burning heat from need of food.
11 सियोनमा स्त्रीहरू र यहूदाका सहरहरूमा कन्याहरू बलत्कार गरिएका छन् ।
They took by force the women in Zion, the virgins in the towns of Judah.
12 राजकुमारहरू तिनीहरूका आफ्नै हातद्वारा झुण्ड्याइएका छन्, र धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई कुनै आदर देखाइएको छैन ।
Their hands put princes to death by hanging: the faces of old men were not honoured.
13 युवाहरू जाँतोमा अन्न पिँध्न बाध्य पारिएका छन्, र ठिटाहरू दाउराको भारीले थिचिएर लडबडाउँदै हिँड्छन् ।
The young men were crushing the grain, and the boys were falling under the wood.
14 धर्म-गुरुहरूले सहरको मूल ढोका छोडेका छन्, र युवाहरूले तिनीहरूको सङ्गीत छोडिदिएका छन् ।
The old men are no longer seated in the doorway, and the music of the young men has come to an end.
15 हाम्रो हृदयको आनन्द हटेको छ, र हाम्रो नाच शोकमा परिणत भएको छ ।
The joy of our hearts is ended; our dancing is changed into sorrow.
16 मुकुट हाम्रो शिरबाट खसेको छ । हामीलाई धिक्कार छ! किनकि हामीले पाप गरेका छौँ ।
The crown has been taken from our head: sorrow is ours, for we are sinners.
17 हाम्रो यो हृदय दुर्बल भएको छ, र यिनै कुराको कारण हाम्रो आँखा धमिलिएका छन् ।
Because of this our hearts are feeble; for these things our eyes are dark;
18 सियोन पर्वत उजाड छ, जहाँ स्यालहरू घुमिहिँड्छन् ।
Because of the mountain of Zion which is a waste; jackals go over it.
19 तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले सदासर्वदा शासन गर्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईं पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म आफ्नो सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुहुने छ ।
You, O Lord, are seated as King for ever; the seat of your power is eternal.
20 तपाईंले हामीलाई किन सदाको निम्ति बिर्सनुहुन्छ? तपाईंले हामीलाई यति धेरै दिनसम्म किन त्याग्नुहुन्छ?
Why have we gone from your memory for ever? why have you been turned away from us for so long?
21 हे परमप्रभु, हामीलाई पुनर्स्थापना गर्नुहोस्, र हामी पुनर्स्थापित हुने छौँ ।
Make us come back to you, O Lord, and let us be turned; make our days new again as in the past.
22 तपाईंले हामीलाई बिलकुलै इन्कार गर्नुभएको छैन, र सम्झनै नसक्ने गरी तपाईं हामीसित रिसाउनुभएको छैन भने धेरै पहिले भएजस्तै हाम्रा दिन नवीकरण गरिदिनुहोस् ।
But you have quite given us up; you are full of wrath against us.
