< भजनसंग्रह 104 >
1 मेरो सारा जीवनले म परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछु । हे परमप्रभु मेरो परमेश्वर, तपाई अति महान् हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईं वैभव र ऐश्वर्यले विभूषित हुनुहुन्छ ।
Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.
2 तपाईंले आफूलाई लुगाले झैं ज्योतिले ढाक्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले आकाशलाई पालको पर्दालाई झैं फैलाउनुहुन्छ ।
Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,
3 तपाईंले आफ्नो कोठाहरूका दलिनहरू बादलमा राख्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले बदललाई आफ्नो रथ बनाउनुहुन्छ । तपाईं हावाको पखेटाहरूमा हिंड्नुहुन्छ ।
Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking on wings of wind,
4 उहाँले हावालाई आफ्नो दूतहरू र आगोका ज्वालाहरूलाई आफ्ना सेवकहरू बनाउनुहुन्छ ।
Making His messengers — the winds, His ministers — the flaming fire.
5 उहाँले पृथ्वीका जगहरू बसाल्नुभयो र त्यो कहिल्यै हटाइनेछैन ।
He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.
6 तपाईंले पृथ्वीलाई लुगाले झैं पानीले ढाक्नुभयो । पानीले पहाडहरू ढाके ।
The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.
7 तपाईंको हप्कीले पानीहरू पछि हटेर गए । तपाईंको गर्जनको सोरमा तिनीहरू भागे ।
From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away.
8 तपाईंले तिनीहरूका निम्ति तोक्नुभएका ठाउँहरूमा पहाडहरू उठे र बेसीहरू फैलिए ।
They go up hills — they go down valleys, Unto a place Thou hast founded for them.
9 तपाईंले तिनीहरूका निम्ति सिमाना तोक्नुभएको छ, जुन तिनीहरूले नाघ्ने छैनन् । तिनीहरूले पृथ्वीलाई फेरि ढाक्नेछैनन् ।
A border Thou hast set, they pass not over, They turn not back to cover the earth.
10 उहाँले मूलहरूलाई बेसीहरूमा बगाउनुभयो । पहाडहरूका बिचबाट खोलाहरू बग्छन् ।
Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on.
11 तिनीहरूले मैदानका सबै जनावरलाई पानी दिन्छन् । जङ्गली गधाहरूले आफ्नो तिर्खा मेटाउँछन् ।
They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break their thirst.
12 नदीका किनाराहरूमा चराहरूले आफ्ना गुँड बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरूले हाँगाहरूमा गाउँछन् ।
By them the fowl of the heavens doth dwell, From between the branches They give forth the voice.
13 आकाशमा भएको पानीका आफ्ना भण्डारहरूबाट उहाँले पहाडहरूलाई पानीले भिजाउनुहुन्छ । पृथ्वी उहाँको श्रमको फलले पूर्ण छ ।
Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied.
14 उहाँले गाईवस्तुको निम्ति घाँस र मानिसलाई खेती गर्न बिरुवाहरू उमार्नुहुन्छ, ताकि मनिसले पृथ्वीबाट खानेकुरा उत्पादन गरोस् ।
Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth,
15 मानिसलाई खुसी राख्न दाखमद्य, त्यसको अनुहार चम्किलो पार्न तेल र त्यसको जीवन बचाउन खानेकुरा उहाँले बनाउनुहुन्छ ।
And wine — it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread — the heart of man it supporteth.
16 परमप्रभुका रूखहरूले प्रशस्त पानी पाउँछन् । लेबनानको देवदारु जसलाई उहाँले रोप्नुभयो ।
Satisfied [are] the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath planted,
17 चराहरूले त्यहाँ गुँड बनाउँछन् । सारसले सल्लाका रूखहरूलाई आफ्नो घर बनाउँछ ।
Where birds do make nests, The stork — the firs [are] her house.
18 घोरलहरू उच्च पहाडहरूतिर बस्छन् । पहाडका टाकुराहरू खरायोहरूका शरणस्थान हुन् ।
The high hills [are] for wild goats, Rocks [are] a refuge for conies,
19 उहाँले चन्द्रमालाई ऋतु चिनाउनलाई तोक्नुभयो । सुर्यले आफ्नो अस्ताउने समय जान्दछ ।
He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his place of entrance.
20 तपाईंले रातको अँध्यारो बनाउनुहुन्छ, जब वनका सबै पशुहरू बाहिर निस्किन्छन् ।
Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep.
21 जवान सिंहहरू आफ्ना शिकारको निम्ति गर्जिन्छन् र परमेश्वरबाट आफ्नो खानेकुरा खोज्छन् ।
The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from God their food.
22 जब सूर्य उदाउँछ, तिनीहरू फर्कन्छन् र आफ्ना खोरहरूमा सुत्छन् ।
The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they crouch.
23 यसबिच मानिसहरू आ-आफ्ना काममा बाहिर जान्छन् र साँझसम्म नै परिश्रम गर्छन् ।
Man goeth forth to his work, And to his service — till evening.
24 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंका कामहरू कति धेरै र फरक किसिमका छन्! बुद्धिले तपाईंले तिनीहरू सबै बनाउनुभयो । पृथ्वी तपाईंको कामहरूले भरिन्छ ।
How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.
25 त्यहाँ गहिरो र फराकिलो, साना र ठुला दुवै असंख्या प्राणीले भरिएको समुद्र छ ।
This, the sea, great and broad of sides, There [are] moving things — innumerable, Living creatures — small with great.
26 पानी जहाजहरू त्यहाँ यात्रा गर्छन् र लिव्यातन पनि त्यहाँ छ, जसलाई तपाईंले समुद्रमा खेल्नलाई बनाउनुभयो ।
There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to play in it.
27 यी सबैले समयमा आफ्नो खाना पाउनलाई तपाईंतिर हेर्छन् ।
All of them unto Thee do look, To give their food in its season.
28 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई दिनुहुँदा, तिनीहरूले बटुल्छन् । तपाईंले आफ्नो हात खोल्नुहुँदा, तिनीहरू सन्तुष्ट हुन्छन् ।
Thou dost give to them — they gather, Thou dost open Thy hand — they [are] satisfied [with] good.
29 तपाईंले आफ्नो मुख लुकाउनुहुँदा, तिनीहरू संकष्टमा पर्छन् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूको सास लिनुभयो भने, तिनीहरू मर्छन् र धूलोमा फर्किन्छन् ।
Thou hidest Thy face — they are troubled, Thou gatherest their spirit — they expire, And unto their dust they turn back.
30 तपाईंले तपाईंको आत्मा पठाउनुहुँदा तिनीहरू सृष्टि हुन्छन् र तपाईंले गाउँलाई नयाँ तुल्याउनुहुन्छ ।
Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou renewest the face of the ground.
31 परमप्रभुको महिमा सदासर्वदा रहिरहोस् । परमप्रभु आफ्नो सृष्टिमा आनन्दित हुनुभएको होस् ।
The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in His works,
32 उहाँले तल पृथ्वीमा हेर्नुहुन्छ र त्यो हल्लिन्छ । उहाँले पहाडहरूलाई छुनुहुन्छ र तिनीहरूमा धूवाँ निस्कन्छ ।
Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh against hills, and they smoke.
33 आफ्नो सारा जीवनभरि म परमप्रभुको निम्ति गीत गाउनेछु । म बाँचुन्जेल आफ्नो परमेश्वरको स्तुति गाउनेछु ।
I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
34 मेरो विचारहरू उहाँलाई मन पर्दो होस् । म परमप्रभुमा आनन्दित हुनेछु ।
Sweet is my meditation on Him, I — I do rejoice in Jehovah.
35 पापीहरू पृथ्वीबाट लोप होऊन् र दुष्टहरू कदापि नरहून् । आफ्नो सारा जीवनभरि म परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्छु । परमप्रभुको स्तुति होस् ।
Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!
