भजनसंग्रह 129

1 “मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्,” इस्राएलले भनोस् ।

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

2 “मेरो युवावस्थादेखि नै तिनीहरूले मलाई आक्रमण गरेका छन्, तापनि तिनीहरूले मलाई पराजित गरेका छैनन् ।

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 हलो जोत्‍नेहरूले मेरो ढाडमा जोते । तिमीहरूले आफ्‍ना हलोको डोबलाई लामो बनाए ।

The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

4 परमप्रभु धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ । उहाँले दुष्‍टहरूका डोरीहरू काट्नुभएको छ ।”

The LORD is righteous: he has cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

5 सियोनलाई घृणा गर्नेहरू सबै जना लाजमा परून् र फर्केर जाऊन् ।

Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

6 तिनीहरू घरमाथिका घाँसहरूजस्ता होऊन् जुन बढ्नअगि नै ओइलाउँछ,

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up:

7 जसले कटनी गर्नेको हात भर्न सक्दैन वा अन्‍नको बिटा बाँध्‍नेको छाती ढाक्‍न सक्दैन ।

Wherewith the mower fills not his hand; nor he that binds sheaves his bosom.

8 त्यो बाटो हिंड्‍नेहरूले यसो नभनून्, “परमप्रभुको आशिष्‌‌‌ तिमीमाथि रहोस् । तिमीलाई परमप्रभुको नाउँमा हामी आशिष्‌ ‌‌दिन्छौं ।”

Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
