< भजनसंग्रह 102 >
1 हे परमप्रभु, मेरो प्रार्थन सुन्नुहोस् । तपाईंलाई मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् ।
Yahweh, listen to what I am praying; hear me while I cry out to you!
2 मेरो कष्टको समयमा तपाईंको मुहार मबाट नलुकाउनुहोस् । मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् । मैले तपाईंलाई पुकारा गर्दा, मलाई तुरुन्तै जवाफ दिनुहोस् ।
Do not (turn away/hide yourself) from me when I (have troubles/am distressed)! Listen to me, and answer me quickly now, when I am calling out to you!
3 किनकि मेरो दिनहरू धूवाँझैं बित्छन् र मेरा हाडहरू आगोझैं जल्छन् ।
My life is ending, like smoke that disappears [SIM]; I have [a high fever which] burns my body like a fire burns [SIM].
4 मेरो हृदय चूर्ण भएको छ र म ओइलिएको घाँसजस्तो छु । म कुनै पनि खानेकुरा खान बिर्सिन्छु ।
[I feel like] I am drying up like grass [SIM] that has been beaten/trampled down, and I no longer have a desire to eat food.
5 मेरो निरन्तरको सुस्केराले म धेरै दुब्लो भएको छु ।
I groan loudly, and my bones can be seen under my skin [because I have become very thin].
6 म उजाडस्थानको धनेसझैं भएको छु । भग्नावशेषको लाटोकोसेरोझैं म भएको छु ।
I am like a [lonely and despised] vulture in the desert, like an owl by itself in the abandoned ruins [of a building/city].
7 एक्लिएको चराझैं छानामाथि म एक्लै जागा रहन्छु ।
I lie awake [at night]; [because there is no one to comfort me], I am like a lonely bird [sitting] on a housetop [SIM].
8 मेरा शत्रुहरूले दिनभरि मेरो खिसी गर्छन् । मेरो गिल्ला गर्नेहरूले मेरो नाउँ सरापको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्छन् ।
All during the day my enemies insult me; those who make fun of me mention my name [and say, “May you be like him”] when they curse people.
9 खरानीलाई म रोटीझैं खान्छु र मेरो पिउने कुरामा आँशु मिसाउँछु ।
Because you are very angry [DOU] with me, now [I sit in] ashes [while I am suffering greatly]; and those ashes [fall on] the bread/food that I eat, and what I drink has my tears mixed with it. [It is as though] you have picked me up and thrown me away!
10 तपाईंको दन्कँदो रिसको कारणले तपाईंले मलाई तल फाल्नलाई माथि उचाल्नुभएको छ ।
11 मेरा दिनहरू हराएर जाने छायाजस्तै छन् र म घाँसझैं ओइलाएको छु ।
My time to remain alive is like an evening shadow [that will soon be gone] [SIM]. I am withering like grass withers [in the hot sun].
12 तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं सदासर्वदा जीवित हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंको ख्याति सबै पुस्तामा रहन्छ ।
But Yahweh, you are our king who rules [MTY] forever; people who are not yet born will remember you.
13 तपाईं माथि उठ्नुहुनेछ र सियोनमाथि दया गर्नुहुनेछ । यो त्यसमाथि दया गर्ने समय हो । तोकिएको समय आएको छ ।
You will arise and be merciful to [the people of] [MTY] Jerusalem; it is now time for you to do that; this is the time for you to be kind to them.
14 किनकि तपाईंको सेवकले त्यसका ढुङ्गाहरू प्रिय मान्छ र त्यसका भग्नावशेषका धूलोप्रति दयाको महसुस गर्छ ।
Even though (the city has been destroyed/our enemies have destroyed our city), we who serve you still love the stones that [were formerly] in the city walls; because now there is rubble everywhere, we, your people, are very sad when we see it.
15 हे परमप्रभु, जातिहरूले तपाईंको नाउँको आदर गर्नेछन् र पृथ्वीका सबै राजाले तपाईंको महिमाको आदर गर्नेछन् ।
Yahweh, [some day the people of other] nations will revere you [MTY]; all the kings on earth will see that you are very glorious/great.
16 परमप्रभुले सियोनको पुनःनिर्माण गर्नुहुनेछ र आफ्नो महिमामा देखा पर्नुहुनेछ ।
You will rebuild Jerusalem, and you will appear there with your glory/brightness.
17 त्यसबेला, उहाँले दरिद्रको प्रार्थनाको जवाफ दिनुहुनेछ । उहाँले तिनीहरूको प्रार्थना इन्कार गर्नुहुनेछैन ।
You will listen to the prayers of your people who are homeless, and you will (not ignore them/do what they request) [LIT] when they plead with you to help them.
18 यो भावी पुस्ताहरूका निम्ति लेखिनेछ, र अहिलेसम्म नजन्मेका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछन् ।
Yahweh, [I want to] write these words in order that people in future years [will know what] you have done, in order that people who are not born yet will praise you.
19 किनकि उहाँले पवित्र उचाइबाट तल हेर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट पृथ्वीलाई हेर्नुभएको छ,
They will know that you looked down from your holy/sacred place in heaven [DOU] and saw [what was happening on] the earth.
20 कैदीहरूका विलाप सुन्न, मृत्युदण्ड पाएकाहरूलाई छुटाउन ।
They will know that you hear prisoners groaning and that you will set free those who have been told, “You will be executed.”
21 तब मानिसहरूले सियोनमा परमप्रभुको नाउँ र यरूशलेममा उहाँको प्रशंसाको घोषणा गर्नेछन्,
As a result, people in Jerusalem will praise you [DOU] for what you [have done]
22 जब मानिसहरू र राज्यहरू परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्न भेला हुन्छन् ।
when many people [from other people-groups] and [those who are citizens of other] kingdoms gather to worship you.
23 उहाँले मेरो जीवनको बिचमा मेरो बल हटाउनुभएको छ । उहाँले मेरो आयुलाई घटाउनुभएको छ ।
[But now] you have caused me to become weak while I am still young; [I think that] I will (not live much longer/ very long/soon die).
24 मैले भनें, “हे मेरो परमेश्वर, मेरो जीवनको बिचैमा मलाई नलानुहोस् । तपाईं सबै पुस्ताभरि यहाँ हुनुहुन्छ ।
I say to you, “My God, do not cause me to die now, before I become old! You live forever!
25 प्राचीन समयमा पृथ्वीलाई तपाईंले यसको ठाउँमा बसाल्नुभयो । आकाश तपाईंकै हातका काम हुन् ।
You created the world long ago, and you made (the heavens/everything in the sky) with your own hands.
26 तिनीहरू नष्ट हुनेछन्, तर तपाईं रहनुहुनेछ । तिनीहरू सबै लुगाझैं पुरानो हुनेछन् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई लुगालाई झैं हटाउनुहुनेछ र तिनीहरू लोप हुनेछन् ।
The earth and the heavens/sky will disappear, but you will remain. They will wear out like clothes wear out. You will get rid of them like [people get rid of] old clothes, and they will no longer exist,
27 तर तपाईं समान हुनुहुन्छ, र तपाईंका वर्षहरूका अन्त हुनेछैन ।
but you are [not like the things that you created], [because you are] always the same; you never die.
28 तपाईंका सेवकहरूका सन्तानहरू निरन्तर जिउनेछन् र तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरू तपाईंको उपस्थितिमा बस्नेछन् ।”
[Some day] our children will live safely [in Jerusalem], and their descendants will be protected in your presence.”
