1 हे परमप्रभु, मलाई दुष्‍टहरूबाट बचाउनुहोस् । हिंस्रक मानिसहरूबाट मलाई सुरक्षित राख्‍नुहोस् ।
To the leader. A Psalm of David. Rescue me, Lord, from evil people; from the violent guard me
2 तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना हृदयहरूमा दुष्‍ट योजना बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरू हरेक दिन युद्ध मच्‍चाउँछन् ।
from those who plot evil in their heart, and stir up war continually:
3 सर्पहरूले झैं तिनीहरूका जिब्राहरूले घाउ बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरूका ओठहरूमा सर्पको विष हुन्‍छ । सेला
who make their tongue as sharp as a serpent’s, and under whose lips is the poison of adders. (Selah)
4 हे परमप्रभु, मलाई दुष्‍टहरूका हातबाट बचाउनुहोस् । हिंस्रक मानिसहरूबाट मलाई सुरक्षित राख्‍नुहोस् जसले मलाई घोक्र्याएर बाहिर निकाल्‍ने योजना बनाउँछन् ।
Preserve me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked, from the violent guard me from those who are plotting to trip up my feet.
5 घमण्डीहरूले मेरो निम्ति पासो थापेका छन् । तिनीहरूले जाल फिंजाएका छन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो निम्ति एउटा पासो थापेका छन् । सेला
The proud have hidden a trap for me, cords they have spread as a net for my feet: snares they have set at the side of my track. (Selah)
6 मैले परमप्रभुलाई भनें, “तपाईं मेरो परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ । दयाको निम्ति मेरो पुकारा सुन्‍नुहोस् ।”
I have said to the Lord, ‘My God are you; attend, Lord, to my loud plea.
7 हे परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्‍वर, मलाई बचाउन तपाईं शक्तिसाली किसिमले सक्षम हुनुहुन्छ । युद्धको दिनमा तपाईंले मेरो शिरलाई छेक्‍नुहुन्छ ।
O Lord my Lord, my saviour mighty, you did cover my head in the day of battle.
8 हे परमप्रभु, दुष्‍टहरूका इच्छाहरू पुरा नगर्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूका षड्यन्त्रहरू सफल नहोऊन् । सेला
Grant not, O Lord, the desires of the wicked; and what they have purposed, promote you not.’ (Selah)
9 मलाई घेर्नेहरूले आफ्‍ना शिर उठाउँछन् । आफ्‍नै ओठहरूका उपद्रवले तिनीहरूलाई ढाकोस् ।
Let them not lift up their heads against me. May the mischief they prate bring themselves to destruction,
10 बलिरहेको भुङ्‍ग्रो तिनीहरूमाथि खसोस् । कहिल्यै नउठ्ने गरी तिनीहरूलाई आगोमा, अतलकुण्‍डमा फाल्नुहोस् ।
may he rain upon them coals of fire, may he strike them down swiftly, to rise no more,
11 निन्‍दा गर्ने जिब्रो भएका मानिसहरूलाई पृथ्वीमा सुरक्षित नगरियोस् । हिस्रक मानिसलाई हिर्काएर मार्न खराबीले त्‍यसलाई खेदोस् ।
no place in the land may there be for the slanderer: may the violent be hunted from sorrow to sorrow.
12 कष्‍टमा परेकाहरूका पक्षमा परमप्रभुले न्याय गर्नुहुनेछ भनी म जान्दछु र उहाँले दरिद्रहरूलाई न्याय दिनुहुनेछ ।
I know that the Lord will do right by the weak, and will execute justice for those who are needy.
13 निश्‍चय नै धर्मी मानिसहरूले तपाईंको नाउँलाई धन्यवाद दिनेछन् । सोझा मानिसहरू तपाईंको उपस्थितिमा बस्‍नेछन् ।
Surely the righteous shall praise your name, and they who are upright shall live in your presence.
