< भजनसंग्रह 10 >
1 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं किन टाढा खडा हुनुहुन्छ? कष्टको समयमा तपाईं किन आफैलाई लुकाउनुहुन्छ?
Why standest thou afar off, O Lord? [why] dost thou overlook [us] in times of need, in affliction?
2 आफ्नो अहङ्कारको कारणले दुष्ट मानिसहरूले थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई लखेट्छन् । तर दुष्टहरूलाई तिनीहरू आफैले बनाएका योजनाहरूका पासोमा पर्न दिनुहोस् ।
While the ungodly one acts proudly, the poor is hotly pursued: [the wicked] are taken in the crafty counsels which they imagine.
3 किनकि दुष्ट व्यक्तिले आफ्ना गहिरा इच्छाहरूमा घमण्ड गर्छ । त्यसले लालचीलाई आशिष् दिन्छ र परमप्रभुको अपमान गर्छ ।
Because the sinner praises himself for the desires of his heart; and the unjust one blesses himself.
4 दुष्ट मानिसको मुहार अहङ्कारपूर्ण छ । त्यसले परमेश्वरलाई खोज्दैन । त्यसले परमेश्वरको बारेमा कदापि विचार गर्दैन किनभने त्यसले उहाँको बारेमा केही वास्तै गर्दैन ।
The sinner has provoked the Lord: according to the abundance of his pride he will not seek after [him]: God is not before him.
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 removed from before him: he will gain the mastery over all his enemies.
6 त्यसले आफ्नो मनमा भन्छ, “म कहिल्यै असफल हुन्नँ । सारा पुस्ताभरि नै मैले दुर्दिन देख्नेछैन ।”
For he has said in his heart, I shall not be moved, [continuing] without evil from generation to generation.
7 त्यसको मुख सराप, छलले र हानिकारक शब्दहरूले पूर्ण हुन्छ । त्यसको जिब्रोले घायल पार्छ र नाश गर्छ ।
Whose mouth is full of cursing, and bitterness, and fraud: under his tongue are trouble and pain.
8 त्यो गाउँको नजिकै ढुकेर बस्छ । गुप्त ठाउँहरूमा त्यसले निर्दोषको हत्या गर्छ । त्यसका आँखाले बेसाहारा पिडितलाई खोज्छ ।
He lies in wait with rich [men] in secret places, in order to slay the innocent: his eyes are set against the poor.
9 सिंह झाडीमा लुकेझैं त्यो गुप्तमा ढुक्छ । थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई समात्न त्यो पर्खेर बस्छ । त्यसले आफ्नो जाल तान्दा थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूलाई समाउँछ ।
He lies in wait in secret as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to ravish the poor, to ravish the poor when he draws him [after him]: he will bring him down in his snare.
10 त्यसका पन्जामा परेकाहरूलाई टेकिन्छन् र पिटिन्छन् । तिनीहरू त्यसको बलियो जालहरूमा फस्छन् ।
He will bow down and fall when he has mastered the poor.
11 त्यसले आफ्नो मनमा भन्छ, “परमेश्वरले बिर्सनुभएको छ । उहाँले आफ्नो मुहार ढाक्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले हेर्ने कष्ट गर्नुहुनेछैन ।”
For he has said in his heart, God has forgotten: he has turned away his face so as never to look.
12 हे परमप्रभु, उठ्नुहोस्! हे परमेश्वर, आफ्नो हात उठाउनुहोस्! तिचिएकाहरूलाई नबिर्सनुहोस् ।
Arise, O Lord God; let thy hand be lifted up: forget not the poor.
13 किन दुष्ट मानिसले परमेश्वरलाई इन्कार गर्छन् र आफ्नो हृदयमा यसो भन्छ, “तपाईंले मलाई जवाफदेही बनाउनु हुनेछैन”?
Wherefore, has the wicked provoked God? for he has said in his heart, He 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 seest [it]; for thou dost observe trouble and wrath, to deliver them into thy hands: the poor has been left to thee; thou wast a helper to the orphan.
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 wicked man: his sin shall be sought for, and shall not be found.
16 परमप्रभु सदासर्वदा राजा हुनुहुन्छ । जातिहरू उहाँको देशबाट लखेटिन्छन् ।
The Lord shall reign for ever, even for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish out his land.
17 हे परमप्रभु, थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको खाँचोहरूका बारेमा तपाईंले सुन्नुभएको छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूका हृदयलाई मजबुत पार्नुहुन्छ, तपाईंले तिनीहरूका प्रार्थना सुन्नुहुन्छ ।
The Lord has heard the desire of the poor: thine ear has inclined to the preparation of their heart;
18 तपाईंले अनाथहरू र थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूको रक्षा गर्नुहुन्छ ताकि पृथ्वीका कुनै पनि मानिसले फेरि आतङ्कित नपारोस् ।
to plead for the orphan and afflicted, that man may no more boast upon the earth.
