भजनसंग्रह 1

1 त्यो मानिस धन्यको हो जो दुष्‍टको सल्लाहमा हिंड्दैन वा पापीहरूका मार्गहरूमा खडा हुँदैन वा गिल्‍ला गर्नेहरूको सभामा बस्दैन ।

O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;

2 तर त्यसको खुसी परमप्रभुको व्यवस्थामा हुन्छ र उहाँको व्यावस्थमा त्यसले दिन र रात मनन् गर्छ ।

But — in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:

3 त्यो खोलाको किनारमा रोपेको रूखजस्तै हुनेछ जसले आफ्‍नो ऋतुमा त्‍यसको फल दिन्छ जसको पातहरू कहिल्यै ओइलाउँदैन त्यसले जे गरे पनि सफल हुनेछ ।

And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

4 दुष्‍टहरू त्‍यस्ता होइनन् तर हावाले उडाउने भुसजस्तै हुन् ।

Not so the wicked: But — as chaff that wind driveth away!

5 त्यसैले दुष्‍टहरू न्यायमा खडा हुनेछैनन् न त पापीहरू धर्मीको सभामा हुनेछन् ।

Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,

6 किनकि परमप्रभुले धर्मीलाई मार्गदर्शन गर्नुहुन्छ तर दुष्‍टको मार्ग भने नष्‍ट हुनेछ ।

For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!
