1 हे परमेश्‍वर जसको म प्रशंसा गर्छु, चूपचाप नबस्‍नुहोस्,
For the leader. Of David, a psalm. O God whom I praise, keep not silence;
2 किनकि दुष्‍टहरू र छलीहरूले मलाई आक्रमाण गर्छन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो विरुद्धमा झुटा बोल्छन् ।
for their wicked mouths they have opened against me, they speak to me with tongues that are false,
3 तिनीहरूले मलाई घेर्छन् र घृणित कुराहरू भन्छन्, र तिनीहरूले मलाई विनाकारण आक्रमण गर्छन् ।
they beset me with words of hatred, and fight without cause against me.
4 मेरो प्रेमको सट्टामा तिनीहरूले मलाई दोष लगाउँछन्, तर तिनीहरूको निम्ति म प्रार्थना गर्छु ।
My love they requite with hostility, while for them I lift up my prayer.
5 भलाइको साटोमा तिनीहरूले मलाई खराबी गर्छन्, मेरो प्रेमलाई तिनीहरूले घृणा गर्छन् ।
Evil for good they reward me, and hatred for my love.
6 यी मानिसहरूजस्ता शत्रुहरूमाथि एक जना दुष्‍ट मानिसलाई नियुक्‍त गर्नुहोस् । त्यसको दाहिने हातपट्टि खडा हुनलाई एक जना दोष लगाउनेलाई नियुक्‍त गर्नुहोस् ।
‘Set over him one who is godless,’ they say, ‘an opponent at his right hand.
7 त्यसको न्याय हुँदा, त्‍यो दोषी भेट्टाइयोस् । त्यसको प्रार्थना पापपूर्ण ठानियोस् ।
From his trial let him come forth guilty, may his prayer be counted as sin.
8 त्यसका दिनहरू थोरै होऊन् । त्यसको पद अरूले लेओस् ।
Grant that his days may be few, that his office be seized by another.
9 त्यसका छोराछोरी अनाथ होऊन् र त्यसकी पत्‍नी विधवा होस् ।
Grant that his children be fatherless, and that his wife be a widow.
10 त्यसका छोराछोरी भौंतारिऊन् र आफ्‍ना भग्‍नावशेष घर छोडेर जाँदा तिनीहरूले भीख मागून् ।
Up and down may his children go begging, expelled from their desolate home.
11 त्यससँग भएका सबै थोक ऋणदाताले लैजाओस् । त्यसले जे कमाउँछ त्‍यो विदेशीहरूले लुटून् ।
May all that he owns be seized by the creditor may strangers plunder the fruits of his toil.
12 त्यसलाई कसैले दया नदेखाओस् । त्यसका अनाथ छोराछोरीलाई कसैले दया नगरोस् ।
‘May none extend to him kindness, or pity his fatherless children.
13 त्यसका छोराछोरीलाई बहिष्कार गरियोस् । तिनीहरूका नाउँ अर्को पुस्ताबाट मेटाइयोस् ।
His descendants be doomed to destruction! Blotted out be his name in one generation!
14 त्यसका पुर्खाहरूका पापहरू परमप्रभुलाई बताइयोस् । अनि त्यसकी आमाकी पाप नबिर्सियोस् ।
May his father’s guilt be remembered, and his mother’s sin not blotted out:
15 तिनीहरूका दोष सधैं परमप्रभुको सामु रहोस् । परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका सम्‍झना पृथ्वीबाट मेटाइदेऊन् ।
on record always before the Lord, and his memory root from the earth;
16 परमप्रभुले यसै गर्नुभएको होस् किनभने यो मानिसले करारको विश्‍वस्‍तता देखाउने मन कहिल्यै गरेन, तर बरु थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरू, दरिद्रहरू र निरुत्साहितहरूलाई मृत्युसम्मै सतायो ।
for he gave no thought to show kindness, but pursued the poor and the needy, drove the downhearted to death.
17 त्यसले सराप्‍न मन परायो । त्‍यो त्यसैमाथि आइपरोस् । त्यसले आशिष्‌लाई ‌‌घृणा गर्‍यो । त्यसकहाँ कुनै आशिष्‌‌‌ नआओस् ।
‘May the curses he loved light upon him, may the blessings he loathed be afar.
18 त्यसले सरापलाई आफ्‍‍नो लुगाको रूपमा लगायो र त्यसको सराप त्यसको अन्तस्करणमा पानीझैं र त्यसको हाडमा तेलझैं आयो ।
Like a garment he clothed him with curses; may they pierce to his inwards like water, and cling to his bones like oil.
19 त्यसको सराप त्यसले आफैलाई ढाक्‍नलाई लगाउने लुगाझैं, त्यसले सँधैं लगाउने कम्मर पेटीझैं त्‍यसैमा परोस् ।
Let them be like the robe he wraps round him, like the belt he wears every day.’
20 मलाई दोष लगाउने, अर्थात् मेरो बारेमा खरब कुराहरू भन्‍नेलाई परमप्रभुबाट यो इनाम होस् ।
Be this the reward of my adversaries, of those who speak evil against me.
21 हे परमप्रभु मेरो परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंको नाउँको खातिर मसँग कृपासाथ व्यवहार गर्नुहोस् । तपाईंको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तता असल भएको हुनाले मलाई बचाउनुहोस् ।
But you, Lord my God, be true to your name, deal kindly with me; in your gracious kindness save me.
22 किनकि म थिचोमिचोमा परेको र दरिद्र भएको छु, र मेरो हृदय मभित्रै घायल छ ।
For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23 साँझको छायाझैं म लोप हुँदैछु । सहललाई झैं मलाई हल्‍लाइएको छ ।
I am gone like a lengthening shadow, I am shaken off like a locust.
24 उपवासले गर्दा मेरा घुँडाहरू कमजोर भएका छन् । म हाड-छाला मात्र भएको छु ।
My knees totter from fasting, my flesh is shrivelled and spare.
25 मलाई दोष लगाउनेद्वारा मलाई घृणा गरिएको छ । तिनीहरूले मलाई देख्‍दा, तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना शिर हल्लाउँछन् ।
They heap insults upon me: when they see me, they shake their head.
26 हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, मलाई सहायता गर्नुहोस् । मलाई तपाईंको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तताद्वारा बचाउनुहोस् ।
Help me, O Lord my God, and save me in your kindness.
27 हे परमप्रभु, यो तपाईंको काम हो, जुन तपाईंले नै गर्नुभएको छ भनी तिनीहरूले जानून् ।
Teach them that this is your hand, and your own doing, O Lord.
28 तिनीहरूले मलाई सरापे तापनि मलाई आशिष्‌ ‌‌दिनुहोस् । तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गर्दा, तिनीहरू लाजमा परून्, तर तपाईंको सेवक आनन्‍दित होस् ।
Let them curse, if only you bless. Put my assailants to shame, and make your servant glad.
29 मेरा वैरीहरू लाजले ढाकिऊन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना लाज लुगाझैं लगाऊन् ।
My opponents be clothed with dishonour, and wrapped in a robe of shame.
30 म आफ्‍नो मुखले परमप्रभुलाई धेरै धन्यवाद दिन्छु । म उहाँलाई भिडको माझमा प्रशंसा गर्नेछु ।
I give thanks to you, Lord, with loud voice, I give praise in the midst of the throng;
31 किनकि दरिद्रको न्याय गर्नेहरूबाट त्‍यसलाई बचाउन उहाँ त्यसको दाहिने हातपट्टि खडा हुनुहुनेछ ।
for he stands by the poor, at his right hand, to save them from those who condemn them.
