भजनसंग्रह 102
1 हे परमप्रभु, मेरो प्रार्थन सुन्नुहोस् । तपाईंलाई मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् ।
“A prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out before the Lord his complaint.” O Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry come unto thee.
2 मेरो कष्टको समयमा तपाईंको मुहार मबाट नलुकाउनुहोस् । मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् । मैले तपाईंलाई पुकारा गर्दा, मलाई तुरुन्तै जवाफ दिनुहोस् ।
Hide not thy face from me on the day when I am distressed; incline unto me thy ear; on the day when I call, answer me speedily.
3 किनकि मेरो दिनहरू धूवाँझैं बित्छन् र मेरा हाडहरू आगोझैं जल्छन् ।
For my days vanish in smoke, and my bones are burning like a hearth.
4 मेरो हृदय चूर्ण भएको छ र म ओइलिएको घाँसजस्तो छु । म कुनै पनि खानेकुरा खान बिर्सिन्छु ।
Struck [by heat] like the herb and dried up is my heart; for I forget to eat my bread.
5 मेरो निरन्तरको सुस्केराले म धेरै दुब्लो भएको छु ।
Because of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my flesh.
6 म उजाडस्थानको धनेसझैं भएको छु । भग्नावशेषको लाटोकोसेरोझैं म भएको छु ।
I am like the pelican of the wilderness: I am become like the owl amid ruins.
7 एक्लिएको चराझैं छानामाथि म एक्लै जागा रहन्छु ।
I watch, and I am become like a [night-]bird sitting alone upon the housetop.
8 मेरा शत्रुहरूले दिनभरि मेरो खिसी गर्छन् । मेरो गिल्ला गर्नेहरूले मेरो नाउँ सरापको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्छन् ।
All the day my enemies reproach me: they that mock me swear by me.
9 खरानीलाई म रोटीझैं खान्छु र मेरो पिउने कुरामा आँशु मिसाउँछु ।
For ashes do I eat like bread, and my drink I mingle with weeping;
10 तपाईंको दन्कँदो रिसको कारणले तपाईंले मलाई तल फाल्नलाई माथि उचाल्नुभएको छ ।
Because of thy indignation and thy wrath; for thou hadst lifted me up, and hast cast me down.
11 मेरा दिनहरू हराएर जाने छायाजस्तै छन् र म घाँसझैं ओइलाएको छु ।
My days are like a shadow that declineth; and like the herb I wither.
12 तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं सदासर्वदा जीवित हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंको ख्याति सबै पुस्तामा रहन्छ ।
But thou, O Lord, wilt sit enthroned for ever; and thy memorial is unto all generations.
13 तपाईं माथि उठ्नुहुनेछ र सियोनमाथि दया गर्नुहुनेछ । यो त्यसमाथि दया गर्ने समय हो । तोकिएको समय आएको छ ।
Thou wilt indeed arise; thou wilt have mercy upon Zion; for it is time to favor her, for the appointed time is coming.
14 किनकि तपाईंको सेवकले त्यसका ढुङ्गाहरू प्रिय मान्छ र त्यसका भग्नावशेषका धूलोप्रति दयाको महसुस गर्छ ।
For thy servants hold dear her stones, and her very dust they cherish.
15 हे परमप्रभु, जातिहरूले तपाईंको नाउँको आदर गर्नेछन् र पृथ्वीका सबै राजाले तपाईंको महिमाको आदर गर्नेछन् ।
Then shall nations fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory:
16 परमप्रभुले सियोनको पुनःनिर्माण गर्नुहुनेछ र आफ्नो महिमामा देखा पर्नुहुनेछ ।
When the Lord shalt have built up Zion, he appeareth in his glory;
17 त्यसबेला, उहाँले दरिद्रको प्रार्थनाको जवाफ दिनुहुनेछ । उहाँले तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना इन्कार गर्नुहुनेछैन ।
[When] he hath regarded the prayer of the forsaken, and doth not despise their prayer.
18 यो भावी पुस्ताहरूका निम्ति लेखिनेछ, र अहिलेसम्म नजन्मेका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछन् ।
This shall be written down for the latest generation; and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord.
19 किनकि उहाँले पवित्र उचाइबाट तल हेर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट पृथ्वीलाई हेर्नुभएको छ,
For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; the Lord hath cast from heaven his view to the earth:
20 कैदीहरूका विलाप सुन्न, मृत्युदण्ड पाएकाहरूलाई छुटाउन ।
To hear the sighing of the prisoner; to loosen those that are doomed to death:
21 तब मानिसहरूले सियोनमा परमप्रभुको नाउँ र यरूशलेममा उहाँको प्रशंसाको घोषणा गर्नेछन्,
That men may proclaim in Zion the name of the Lord, and his praise in Jerusalem;
22 जब मानिसहरू र राज्यहरू परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्न भेला हुन्छन् ।
When people are gathered together, and kingdoms, to serve the Lord.—
23 उहाँले मेरो जीवनको बिचमा मेरो बल हटाउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मेरो आयुलाई घटाउनुभएको छ ।
He hath weakened on the way my strength; he hath shortened my days.
24 मैले भनें, “हे मेरो परमेश्वर, मेरो जीवनको बिचैमा मलाई नलानुहोस् । तपाईं सबै पुस्ताभरि यहाँ हुनुहुन्छ ।
I will say, O my God! take me not away in the midst of my days: throughout all generations are thy years.
25 प्राचीन समयमा पृथ्वीलाई तपाईंले यसको ठाउँमा बसाल्नुभयो । आकाश तपाईंकै हातका काम हुन् ।
In olden times didst thou lay the foundations of the earth; and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
26 तिनीहरू नष्ट हुनेछन्, तर तपाईं रहनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू सबै लुगाझैं पुरानो हुनेछन् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई लुगालाई झैं हटाउनुहुनेछ र तिनीहरू लोप हुनेछन् ।
These will indeed perish, but thou wilt ever exist: yea, all of them will wear out like a garment; as a vesture wilt thou change them, and they will be changed;
27 तर तपाईं समान हुनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंका वर्षहरूका अन्त हुनेछैन ।
But thou art ever the same, and thy years will have no end.
28 तपाईंका सेवकहरूका सन्तानहरू निरन्तर जिउनेछन् र तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरू तपाईंको उपस्थितिमा बस्नेछन् ।”
The children of thy servants will dwell [securely], and their seed will be firmly established before thee.
