1 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं किन टाढा खडा हुनुहुन्छ? कष्‍टको समयमा तपाईं किन आफैलाई लुकाउनुहुन्छ?
Why do thou stand afar off, O Jehovah? Why do thou hide thyself in times of trouble?
2 आफ्‍नो अहङ्कारको कारणले दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूले थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई लखेट्छन् । तर दुष्‍टहरूलाई तिनीहरू आफैले बनाएका योजनाहरूका पासोमा पर्न दिनुहोस् ।
In the pride of the wicked man the poor man is hotly pursued. Let them be taken in the devices that they have conceived.
3 किनकि दुष्‍ट व्‍यक्‍तिले आफ्ना गहिरा इच्छाहरूमा घमण्ड गर्छ । त्यसले लालचीलाई आशिष्‌ ‌‌दिन्छ र परमप्रभुको अपमान गर्छ ।
For the wicked man boasts of his heart's desire. And the greedy man renounces, yea, despises Jehovah.
4 दुष्‍ट मानिसको मुहार अहङ्कारपूर्ण छ । त्यसले परमेश्‍वरलाई खोज्‍दैन । त्यसले परमेश्‍वरको बारेमा कदापि विचार गर्दैन किनभने त्यसले उहाँको बारेमा केही वास्‍तै गर्दैन ।
The wicked man, in the pride of his countenance, says, He will not require it. All his thoughts are, There is no God.
5 त्यो हर समय ढुक्‍क हुन्छ, तर तपाईंका धार्मिक आदेशहरू त्यसको निम्ति अति उच्‍च छन् । त्यसले आफ्‍ना सबै शत्रुलाई घृणा गर्छ ।
His ways are profane at all times. Thy judgments are far above out of his sight. As for all his adversaries, he puffs at them.
6 त्यसले आफ्‍नो मनमा भन्छ, “म कहिल्यै असफल हुन्‍नँ । सारा पुस्ताभरि नै मैले दुर्दिन देख्‍नेछैन ।”
He says in his heart, I shall not be moved. To all generations I shall not be in adversity.
7 त्यसको मुख सराप, छलले र हानिकारक शब्दहरूले पूर्ण हुन्छ । त्यसको जिब्रोले घायल पार्छ र नाश गर्छ ।
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
8 त्यो गाउँको नजिकै ढुकेर बस्छ । गुप्‍त ठाउँहरूमा त्यसले निर्दोषको हत्या गर्छ । त्यसका आँखाले बेसाहारा पिडितलाई खोज्छ ।
He sits in the lurking-places of the villages. In the covert places he murders the innocent man. His eyes are secretly set against the poor man.
9 सिंह झाडीमा लुकेझैं त्यो गुप्‍तमा ढुक्छ । थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई समात्‍न त्‍यो पर्खेर बस्‍छ । त्यसले आफ्नो जाल तान्दा थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई समाउँछ ।
He lurks in secret as a lion in his covert. He lies in wait to catch the poor man. He catches the poor man when he draws him in his net.
10 त्यसका पन्‍जामा परेकाहरूलाई टेकिन्‍छन् र पिटिन्छन् । तिनीहरू त्यसको बलियो जालहरूमा फस्छन् ।
He crouches, he bows down, and helpless men fall by his strong men.
11 त्यसले आफ्नो मनमा भन्छ, “परमेश्‍वरले बिर्सनुभएको छ । उहाँले आफ्नो मुहार ढाक्‍नुहुन्‍छ । उहाँले हेर्ने कष्‍ट गर्नुहुनेछैन ।”
He says in his heart, God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.
12 हे परमप्रभु, उठ्‍नुहोस्! हे परमेश्‍वर, आफ्नो हात उठाउनुहोस्! तिचिएकाहरूलाई नबिर्सनुहोस् ।
Arise, O Jehovah, O God, lift up thy hand. Do not forget the poor.
13 किन दुष्‍ट मानिसले परमेश्‍वरलाई इन्कार गर्छन् र आफ्नो हृदयमा यसो भन्‍छ, “तपाईंले मलाई जवाफदेही बनाउनु हुनेछैन”?
Why does the wicked man despise God, and say in his heart, Thou will not require it?
14 तपाईंले ध्यान दिनुभएको छ, किनकि विपद र दुःख ल्याउनेलाई तपाईंले सदासर्वदा हेर्नुहुन्छ । बेसाहाराले आफैलाई तपाईंमा सुम्पन्छ । तपाईंले अनाथहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुहुन्छ ।
Thou have seen. For thou behold mischief and spite, to repay with thy hand. The poor man commits himself to thee. Thou have been the helper of the fatherless.
15 दुष्‍ट र खराब मानिसहरूको पाखुरा भाँच्नुहोस् । त्यसलाई आफ्‍नो दुष्‍ट कामहरूको लेखा लिनुहोस्, जुन तपाईंले पत्ता लगाउनु हुन्‍न भनी त्यसले सोच्यो ।
Break thou the arm of the sinner and the evil man. His wickedness shall be sought, and shall not be found.
16 परमप्रभु सदासर्वदा राजा हुनुहुन्छ । जातिहरू उहाँको देशबाट लखेटिन्‍छन् ।
Jehovah is King forever and ever. The nations have perished out of his land.
17 हे परमप्रभु, थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको खाँचोहरूका बारेमा तपाईंले सुन्‍नुभएको छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूका हृदयलाई मजबुत पार्नुहुन्छ, तपाईंले तिनीहरूका प्रार्थना सुन्‍नुहुन्छ ।
Jehovah, thou have heard the desire of the humble. Thou will prepare their heart, thou will cause thine ear to hear,
18 तपाईंले अनाथहरू र थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको रक्षा गर्नुहुन्छ ताकि पृथ्वीका कुनै पनि मानिसले फेरि आतङ्‍कित नपारोस् ।
to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may no more be terrible.
