< भजनसंग्रह 102 >
1 हे परमप्रभु, मेरो प्रार्थन सुन्नुहोस् । तपाईंलाई मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् ।
The prayer: for a weary and suffering person who pours out their grief to the Lord. Hear my prayer, O Lord; let my cry for help come to you.
2 मेरो कष्टको समयमा तपाईंको मुहार मबाट नलुकाउनुहोस् । मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् । मैले तपाईंलाई पुकारा गर्दा, मलाई तुरुन्तै जवाफ दिनुहोस् ।
Hide not your face from me in the day of my distress. Incline your ear to me: when I call, answer me speedily.
3 किनकि मेरो दिनहरू धूवाँझैं बित्छन् र मेरा हाडहरू आगोझैं जल्छन् ।
For my days pass away like smoke: my bones are burned through as with fire.
4 मेरो हृदय चूर्ण भएको छ र म ओइलिएको घाँसजस्तो छु । म कुनै पनि खानेकुरा खान बिर्सिन्छु ।
My heart is scorched, withered like grass; I forget to eat my bread.
5 मेरो निरन्तरको सुस्केराले म धेरै दुब्लो भएको छु ।
By reason of my loud groaning, my flesh clings to my bones.
6 म उजाडस्थानको धनेसझैं भएको छु । भग्नावशेषको लाटोकोसेरोझैं म भएको छु ।
Like a desert-owl of the wilderness, like an owl among ruins am I.
7 एक्लिएको चराझैं छानामाथि म एक्लै जागा रहन्छु ।
I make my sleepless lament like a bird on the house-top alone.
8 मेरा शत्रुहरूले दिनभरि मेरो खिसी गर्छन् । मेरो गिल्ला गर्नेहरूले मेरो नाउँ सरापको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्छन् ।
All the day wild foes revile me, using my name for a curse.
9 खरानीलाई म रोटीझैं खान्छु र मेरो पिउने कुरामा आँशु मिसाउँछु ।
For ashes have been my bread, and tears have been mixed with my cup.
10 तपाईंको दन्कँदो रिसको कारणले तपाईंले मलाई तल फाल्नलाई माथि उचाल्नुभएको छ ।
Because of your passionate anger, you did raise me, then hurl me to the ground.
11 मेरा दिनहरू हराएर जाने छायाजस्तै छन् र म घाँसझैं ओइलाएको छु ।
My days come to an end, shadows lengthen, I wither like grass.
12 तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं सदासर्वदा जीवित हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंको ख्याति सबै पुस्तामा रहन्छ ।
But you, O Lord, are enthroned forever, your fame endures to all generations.
13 तपाईं माथि उठ्नुहुनेछ र सियोनमाथि दया गर्नुहुनेछ । यो त्यसमाथि दया गर्ने समय हो । तोकिएको समय आएको छ ।
You will arise and have pity on Zion; it’s time to be gracious; her hour has come.
14 किनकि तपाईंको सेवकले त्यसका ढुङ्गाहरू प्रिय मान्छ र त्यसका भग्नावशेषका धूलोप्रति दयाको महसुस गर्छ ।
For even her stones are dear to your servants, even the dust of her ruins they look on with love.
15 हे परमप्रभु, जातिहरूले तपाईंको नाउँको आदर गर्नेछन् र पृथ्वीका सबै राजाले तपाईंको महिमाको आदर गर्नेछन् ।
Then the nations will revere the name of the Lord and all the kings of the earth his glory,
16 परमप्रभुले सियोनको पुनःनिर्माण गर्नुहुनेछ र आफ्नो महिमामा देखा पर्नुहुनेछ ।
when the Lord shall have built up Zion, and revealed himself in his glory,
17 त्यसबेला, उहाँले दरिद्रको प्रार्थनाको जवाफ दिनुहुनेछ । उहाँले तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना इन्कार गर्नुहुनेछैन ।
in response to the prayer of the destitute, whose prayer he will not despise.
18 यो भावी पुस्ताहरूका निम्ति लेखिनेछ, र अहिलेसम्म नजन्मेका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछन् ।
Let this be recorded for ages to come, that the Lord may be praised by a people yet unborn.
19 किनकि उहाँले पवित्र उचाइबाट तल हेर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट पृथ्वीलाई हेर्नुभएको छ,
For he shall look down from his holy height, from the heavens the Lord will gaze on the earth,
20 कैदीहरूका विलाप सुन्न, मृत्युदण्ड पाएकाहरूलाई छुटाउन ।
to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are doomed to die;
21 तब मानिसहरूले सियोनमा परमप्रभुको नाउँ र यरूशलेममा उहाँको प्रशंसाको घोषणा गर्नेछन्,
that people may recount the Lord’s fame in Zion, and the praise of him in Jerusalem,
22 जब मानिसहरू र राज्यहरू परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्न भेला हुन्छन् ।
when the nations are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to worship the Lord.
23 उहाँले मेरो जीवनको बिचमा मेरो बल हटाउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मेरो आयुलाई घटाउनुभएको छ ।
He has broken my strength on the way, he has shortened my days.
24 मैले भनें, “हे मेरो परमेश्वर, मेरो जीवनको बिचैमा मलाई नलानुहोस् । तपाईं सबै पुस्ताभरि यहाँ हुनुहुन्छ ।
I will say, ‘My God, take me not hence in the midst of my days. ‘Your years endure age after age.
25 प्राचीन समयमा पृथ्वीलाई तपाईंले यसको ठाउँमा बसाल्नुभयो । आकाश तपाईंकै हातका काम हुन् ।
Of old you have founded the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.
26 तिनीहरू नष्ट हुनेछन्, तर तपाईं रहनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू सबै लुगाझैं पुरानो हुनेछन् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई लुगालाई झैं हटाउनुहुनेछ र तिनीहरू लोप हुनेछन् ।
They shall perish; but you do stand. They shall all wax old like a garment, and change as a robe you will change them.
27 तर तपाईं समान हुनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंका वर्षहरूका अन्त हुनेछैन ।
But you are the same, your years are endless.
28 तपाईंका सेवकहरूका सन्तानहरू निरन्तर जिउनेछन् र तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरू तपाईंको उपस्थितिमा बस्नेछन् ।”
The children of your servants abide, evermore shall their seed be before you.’
