< भजनसंग्रह 106 >
1 परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर । परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवाद देओ, किनकि उहाँ भलो हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि उहाँको करारको विश्वस्तता सदासर्वदा रहन्छ ।
Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
2 परमप्रभुको शक्तिशाली कामहरू कसले वर्णन गर्न सक्छ वा उहाँ सबै प्रशंसाननिय कामहरू कसले घोषणा गर्न सक्छ र?
Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? [who] can shew forth all his praise?
3 जे ठिक छ सो गर्नेहरू र जसका कामहरू सधैं न्यायोचित हुन्छन्, तिनीहरू धन्यका होऊन् ।
Blessed are they that keep justice, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.
4 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई कृपा गर्नुहुँदा मलाई समम्झनुहोस् । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुहुँदा मलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस् ।
Remember me, O Jehovah, with [thy] favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation:
5 तब तपाईंका चुनिएकाहरूको फलिफाप म हेर्नेछु, तपाईंको जातिको खुसीमा आनन्दित हुनेछु र तपाईंको उत्तराधिकारसँगै महिमित हुनेछु ।
That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
6 हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूले झैं हामीले पाप गरेका छौं । हामीले गल्ती गरेका छौं र हामीले खराबी गरेका छौं ।
We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7 हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूले मिश्रदेशमा तपाईंका अचम्मका कामहरूको कदर गरेनन् । तिनीहरूले तपाईंका करारको विश्वस्तताका धेरै कामहरूलाई बवास्ता गरे । तिनीहरू लाल समुद्रमा विद्रोही भए ।
Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.
8 तापनि, उहाँले आफ्नो नाउँको खातिर तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुभयो ताकि उहाँले आफ्नो शक्ति प्रकट गर्न सक्नुभएको होस् ।
Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.
9 उहाँले लाल समुद्रलाई हप्कानुभयो र त्यो सुक्यो । अनि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई उजाडस्थानमा झैं समुद्रको गहिराइमा डोर्याउनुभयो ।
And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness.
10 तिनीहरूलाई घृणा गर्नेहरूको हातबट उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुभयो र शत्रुहरूका हातबाट उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई छुट्टाउनुभयो ।
And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 तर तिनीहरूका वैरीहरूलाई पानीले छोप्यो । तिनीहरूमध्ये एक जना पनि बाँचेन ।
And the waters covered their oppressors: there was not one of them left.
12 तब तिनीहरूले उहाँको वचनमा विश्वास गरे र तिनीहरूले उहाँको स्तुति गाए ।
Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
13 तर उहाँले जे गर्नुभएको थियो त्यो तिनीहरूले तुरुन्तै बिर्से । तिनीहरूले उहाँको सल्लाहको निम्ति पर्खेनन् ।
They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:
14 उजाडस्थानमा तिनीहरूमा असन्तुष्ट इच्छाहरू थिए र तिनीहरूले मरुभूमिमा परमेश्वरलाई चुनौति दिए ।
And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
15 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले जे मागे उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई त्यही दिनुभयो, तर उहाँले तिनीहरूमाथि डरलाग्दो रोग पठाउनुभयो ।
Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
16 छाउनीमा तिनीहरू परमप्रभुका पवित्र पुजारी मोशा र हारूनप्रति डाही बने ।
And they envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron, the saint of Jehovah.
17 पृथ्वीले खुल्यो र दातानलाई निल्यो र अबीरामको पछि लाग्नेहरूलाई ढाकिदियो ।
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram;
18 तिनीहरू माझमा आगो सल्कियो । त्यो आगोले दुष्टहरूलाई भष्म पार्यो ।
And fire was kindled in their company; a flame burned up the wicked.
19 तिनीहरूले होरेबा एउटा बाछो बनाए र धातुको मूर्तीको आकृति पुजे ।
They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image;
20 तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको महिमालाई घाँस खाने साँढेको प्रतिमासँग साटे ।
And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.
21 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना उद्धारकर्तालाई बिर्से जसले मिश्रदेशमा महान् कामहरू गर्नुभएको थियो ।
They forgot God their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
22 उहाँले हामको देशमा अचम्मका कामहरू र लाल समुद्रमा शक्तिशाली कामहरू गर्नुभएको थियो ।
Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.
23 त्यसैले उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई नाश गर्छु भन्नुहुँदा—तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट गर्ने उहाँको रिस हटाउनलाई उहाँको चुनिएको जन मोशा धाँदोमा खडा भए ।
And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy [them].
24 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले फलवन्त देशलाई घृणा गरे । तिनीहरूले उहाँको प्रतिज्ञामा विश्वास गरेनन्,
And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word,
25 तर आफ्ना पालहरूमा गनगन गरे र पमरप्रभुको आज्ञा पालन गरेनन् ।
But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah.
26 यसकारण उहाँले आफ्नो हात उठाउनुभयो र तिनीहरूसित शपथ खानुभयो, कि उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई मरुभूमिमा नै मर्न दिनुहुनेछ,
And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness;
27 तिनीहरूका सन्तानहरूलाई जातिहरूका माझमा तितरबितर पार्नहुनेछ, र तिनीहरूलाई विदेशहरूमा छरपष्ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।
And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries.
28 तिनीहरूले पोरको बाललाई पुजा गरे र मृतकलाई चढाइएको बलिहरू खाए ।
And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead;
29 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना कामहरूले उहाँलाई रिस उठाए र तिनीहरू माझमा एउटा रुढी फैलियो ।
And they provoked [him] to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them.
30 तब मध्यस्थ गर्न पीनहास उठे र रूढी थामियो ।
Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed;
31 यो तिनको निम्ति सबै पुस्तासम्म सदाको निम्ति धार्मिकता गनियो ।
And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore.
32 तिनीहरूले मेरीबको पानीमा पनि परमप्रभुलाई रिस उठाए र तिनीहरूका कारणले मोशाले कष्ट भोगे ।
And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account;
33 तिनीहरूले मोशालाई तिक्त बनाए र तिनले हतारमा बोले ।
For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.
34 परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेअनुसार तिनीहरूले जातिहरूलाई नष्ट पारेनन्,
They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them;
35 तर तिनीहरू जातिहरूसँग मसिए र तिनीहरूका मार्गहरू सिके,
But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works;
36 र तिनीहरूका मूर्तीहरूको पुजा गरे जुन तिनीहरूको निम्ति पासो बन्यो ।
And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them:
37 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना छोरा र छोरीहरू भुत आत्माहरूलाई बलि चढाए ।
And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,
38 तिनीहरूले निर्दोष रगतको, अर्थात् आफ्ना छोराहरू र छोरीहरूका रगत बगाए, जुन तिनीहरूले कनानको मूर्तीहरूलाई बलि चढाएर रगतले देशलाई अशुद्ध पारे ।
And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.
39 तिनीहरू आफ्ना कामहरूले अशुद्ध भए । तिनीहरूका कामहरूले तिनीहरू वेश्याजस्तै भए ।
And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings.
40 त्यसैले परमप्रभु आफ्ना मानिसहरूसँग रिसाउनुभयो र उहाँले आफ्नै मानिसहरूलाई घृणा गर्नुभयो ।
Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance;
41 उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई जातिहरूका हातमा सुम्पिनुभयो र तिनीहरूलाई घृणा गर्नेहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि राज्य गरे ।
And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them:
42 तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि थिचोमिचो गरे, र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना अधिकारीको अधीनमा पारियो ।
And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
43 तिनीहरूलाई सहायता गर्न उहाँ धेरैपल्ट आउनुभयो, तर तिनीहरूले निरन्तर विद्रोह गरे र तिनीहरूका आफ्नै पापले तल पारिए ।
Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked [him] by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity.
44 तापनि, सहायताको निम्ति तिनीहरूका पुकारा उहाँले सुन्नुहुँदा उहाँले तिनीहरूका संकष्टमा ध्यान दिनुभयो ।
But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry;
45 उहाँले तिनीहरूसँगको आफ्नो करारलाई सम्झिनुभयो र आफ्नो अटल प्रेमको कारणले नरम हुनुभयो ।
And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses;
46 तिनीहरूका सबै विजेतालाई तिनीहरूमाथि दया गर्ने उहाँले बनाउनुहुन्थ्यो ।
And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives.
47 हे परमप्रभु, हाम्रा परमेश्वर, हामीलाई बचाउनुहोस् । हामीलाई जातिहरूको माझबाट भेला गर्नुहोस्, ताकि तपाईंको पवित्र नाउँमा हामी धन्यवाद दिन र तपाईंका प्रशंसाहरूमा गर्व गर्न सकौं।
Save us, Jehovah our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.
48 इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको अनादिदेखि अनन्तसम्म स्तुति होस् । सबै मानिसहरूले भने, “आमेन ।” परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा होस् ।
Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
