< भजनसंग्रह 105 >
1 परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवाद देओ । उहाँको नाउँमा पुकारा गर । उहाँका कामहरू जातिहरूका माझमा प्रकट गर ।
Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, and call upon his name: declare his deeds among the Gentiles.
2 उहाँको निम्ति गाओ । उहाँको स्तुति गाओ । उहाँका सबै अचम्मका कामहरूका बारेमा भन ।
Sing to him, yea sing praises to him: relate all his wondrous works.
3 उहाँको पवित्र नाउँमा गर्व गर । परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्नेहरूका हृदय आनन्दित होस् ।
Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
4 परमप्रभु र उहाँको शक्तिको खोजि गर । उहाँको उपस्थितिको निरन्तर खोजी गर ।
Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: seek his face evermore.
5 उहाँले गर्नुभएका अचम्मका कामहरू, उहाँका आश्चर्य कामहरू र उहाँको मुखका आदेशहरूलाई याद गर,
Remember his marvellous works which he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth.
6 ए उहाँका सेवक अब्राहामका सन्तानहरू, याकूबका मानिसहरू, उहाँका चुनिएका जनहरू हो ।
O ye seed of Abraham his servant; ye sons of Jacob his chosen.
7 उहाँ परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँका आदेशहरू सारा पृथ्वीभरि छन् ।
He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8 उहाँले आफ्नो करारलाई सदासर्वदा, आफूले आज्ञा गर्नुभएका वचनलाई हजार पुस्तासम्म सम्झनुहुन्छ ।
He hath remembered his covenant for ever: the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9 आफूले अब्राहामसँग गरेको करार र इसहाकसँग खाएको शपथलाई उहाँले सम्झनुहुन्छ ।
Which he made to Abraham; and his oath to Isaac:
10 यो उहाँले याकूबसँग आदेश रूपमा र इस्राएलसँग अनन्त करारको रूपमा पुष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
And he appointed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting testament:
11 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “तेरो उत्तराधिकारको तेरो अंशको रूपमा तँलाई म कनान देश दिनेछु ।”
Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the lot of your inheritance.
12 तिनीहरू संख्यामा थोरै, अति थोरै मात्र हुँदा र देशमा परदेशीहरू हुँदा नै उहाँले यसो भन्नुभयो ।
When they were but a small number: yea very few, and sojourners therein:
13 तिनीहरू एक जातिबाट अर्को जातिमा र एक राज्यबाट अर्को राज्यमा गए ।
And they passed from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
14 उहाँले कसैलाई पनि तिनीहरूमाथि थिचोमिचो गर्ने अनुमति दिनुभएन । तिनीहरूका खातिर उहाँले राजाहरूलाई हप्काउनुभयो ।
He suffered no man to hurt them: and he reproved kings for their sakes.
15 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “मेरो अभिषिक्त जनलाई नछोओ र मेरा अगमवक्ताहरूका हानि नगर ।”
Touch ye not my anointed: and do no evil to my prophets.
16 उहाँ देशमा अनिकाल ल्याउनुभयो । उहाँ खानेकुराको सारा आपूर्ती बन्द गर्नुभयो ।
And he called a famine upon the land: and he broke in pieces all the support of bread.
17 उहाँले तिनीहरू अगिअगि एक जना मानिसलाई पठाउनुभयो । योसेफलाई कमाराको रूपमा बेचिएका थिए ।
He sent a man before them: Joseph, who was sold for a slave.
18 तिनका खुट्टाहरू साङ्लाहरूले बाँधिएका थिए । तिनको घाँटीमा फालमको जन्जीर लगाइयो,
They humbled his feet in fetters: the iron pierced his soul,
19 तिनले जे भनेका थिए सो हुन नआएसम्म । परमप्रभुको वचनले तिनको जाँच गर्यो ।
Until his word came. The word of the Lord inflamed him.
20 तिनलाई मुक्त गर्न राजाले सेवकहरू पठाए । मानिसहरूका शासकले तिनलाई मुक्त गरे ।
The king sent, and he released him: the ruler of the people, and he set him at liberty.
21 उनले तिनलाई आफ्नो सारा सम्पत्तिको शासकको रूपमा आफ्नो दरवारको निरीक्षक बनाए,
He made him master of his house, and ruler of all his possession.
22 तिनले चाहेअनुरूप उनका शासकहरूलाई सल्लाह दिन र उनका धर्मगुरुहरूलाई बुद्धि सिकाउन ।
That he might instruct his princes as himself, and teach his ancients wisdom.
23 त्यसपछि इस्राएल मिश्रदेशमा गए र याकूब केही समय हामको देशमा बसे ।
And Israel went into Egypt: and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham.
24 परमप्रभुले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई फल्दोफुल्दो बनाउनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना शत्रुहरूभन्दा बलियो बनाउनुभयो ।
And he increased his people exceedingly: and strengthened them over their enemies,
25 उहाँका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूले घृणा गर्ने, आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई दुर्व्यवहार गर्ने उहाँले बनाउनुभयो ।
He turned their heart to hate his people: and to deal deceitfully with his servants.
26 आफूले चुन्नुभएका आफ्ना सेवक मोशा र हारूनलाई उहाँले पठाउनुभयो ।
He sent Moses his servant: Aaron the man whom he had chosen.
27 तिनीहरूले मिश्रीहरूका माझमा उहाँका चिन्हहरू, हामको देशमा उहाँ अचम्मका कामहरू गरे ।
He gave them power to shew his signs, and his wonders in the land of Cham.
28 उहाँले अन्धकार पठाउनुभयो र त्यो देशलाई अँध्यारो बनाउनुभयो, तर त्यसका मानिसहरूले उहाँका आज्ञाहरू पालन गरेनन् ।
He sent darkness, and made it obscure: and grieved not his words.
29 उहाँले तिनीहरूका पानीलाई रगतमा बद्लिनुभयो र तिनीहरूका माछाहरू मार्नुभयो ।
He turned their waters into blood, and destroyed their fish.
30 तिनीहरूका देश, तिनीहरूका शासकहरूका कोठाहरूमा समेत भ्यागुताहरूले भरिए ।
Their land brought forth frogs, in the inner chambers of their kings.
31 उहाँले बोल्नुभयो र झिंगाहरू र भुसुनाहरूको हुल तिनीहरूको देशभरि आए ।
He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies and sciniphs in all their coasts.
32 तिनीहरूका देशमा बलिरहेको आगोको ज्वालासहित, उहाँले तिनीहरूको वर्सालाई असिनामा बद्लिनुभयो ।
He gave them hail for rain, a burning fire in the land.
33 उहाँले तिनीहरूका दाखका बोटहरू र अञ्जीरका रूखहरू नष्ट पार्नुभयो । उहाँ तिनीहरूका देशका रूखहरू भाँच्नुभयो ।
And he destroyed their vineyards and their fig trees: and he broke in pieces the trees of their coasts.
34 उहाँ बोल्नुभयो र सलहहरू, साह्रै नै धेरै सलहहरू आए ।
He spoke, and the locust came, and the bruchus, of which there was no number.
35 सलहहरूले तिनीहरूका देशमा भएका सबै वनस्पतिहरू खाए । तिनीहरूले जमिनका सबै फसलहरू खाए ।
And they devoured all the grass in their land, and consumed all the fruit of their ground.
36 तिनीहरूका देशमा भएका हरेक जेठा सन्तान, तिनीहरूका बलको पहिलो फललाई उहाँले मार्नुभयो ।
And he slew all the firstborn in their land: the firstfruits of all their labour.
37 उहाँले इस्राएलीहरूलाई सुन र चाँदीसहित हाबिर निकालेर ल्याउनुभयो । उहाँका कुलमध्ये कुनैले पनि बाटोमा ठेस खाएन ।
And he brought them out with silver and gold: and there was not among their tribes one that was feeble.
38 तिनीहरू निस्केर जाँदा मिश्रदेश खुसी थियो, किनकि मिश्रीहरू तिनीहरूसँग डराएका थिए ।
Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them lay upon them.
39 उहाँले ढाक्नलाई बादल फिंजाउनुभयो र रातलाई उज्यालो पार्न आगो बाल्नुभयो ।
He spread a cloud for their protection, and fire to give them light in the night.
40 इस्राएलीहरूले खानेकुरा मागे र उहाँले बट्टाई चरा दिनुभयो र स्वर्गको रोटीले तिनीहरूलाई सन्तुष्ट पार्नुभयो ।
They asked, and the quail came: and he filled them with the bread of heaven.
41 उहाँले चट्टानलाई चिरा पार्नुभयो र त्यसबाट पानी बगेर निस्क्यो । उजाडस्थानमा ती नदीझैं बगे ।
He opened the rock, and waters flowed: rivers ran down in the dry land.
42 किनकि उहाँले आफ्नो सेवक अब्राहामसँग गर्नुभएको आफ्नो पवित्र प्रतिज्ञालाइ सम्झिनुभयो ।
Because he remembered his holy word, which he had spoken to his servant Abraham.
43 आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई आनन्दसाथ, उहाँका चुनिएकाहरूलाई जयजयकारको ध्वनिसँगै उहाँले डोर्याउनुभयो ।
And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness.
44 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई जातिहरूका देश दिनुभयो । तिनीहरूले मानिसहरूका सम्पत्तिमाथि आफ्नो अधिकार जमाए,
And he gave them the lands of the Gentiles: and they possessed the labours of the people:
45 ताकि तिनीहरूले उहाँका आदेशहरू पालन गरून् र उहाँका व्यवस्थाहरू मानून् । परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर ।
That they might observe his justifications, and seek after his law.
