भजनसंग्रह 140
1 हे परमप्रभु, मलाई दुष्टहरूबाट बचाउनुहोस् । हिंस्रक मानिसहरूबाट मलाई सुरक्षित राख्नुहोस् ।
Yahweh, rescue/save me from [being attacked by] evil men; and [even more], (keep me safe/protect me) from being attacked by violent people.
2 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना हृदयहरूमा दुष्ट योजना बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरू हरेक दिन युद्ध मच्चाउँछन् ।
They are always planning to do evil things and they are always inciting/urging people to start quarrels.
3 सर्पहरूले झैं तिनीहरूका जिब्राहरूले घाउ बनाउँछन् । तिनीहरूका ओठहरूमा सर्पको विष हुन्छ । सेला
By what they say [MTY] [they injure people like] poisonous snakes do; the words that they speak [MTY] [can kill people as easily as] cobras/vipers do.
4 हे परमप्रभु, मलाई दुष्टहरूका हातबाट बचाउनुहोस् । हिंस्रक मानिसहरूबाट मलाई सुरक्षित राख्नुहोस् जसले मलाई घोक्र्याएर बाहिर निकाल्ने योजना बनाउँछन् ।
Yahweh, protect me from the power [MTY] of wicked [people]. Keep me safe from violent men who plan to destroy me [SYN].
5 घमण्डीहरूले मेरो निम्ति पासो थापेका छन् । तिनीहरूले जाल फिंजाएका छन् । तिनीहरूले मेरो निम्ति एउटा पासो थापेका छन् । सेला
[It is as though] proud people have set a trap for me; [it is as though] they have spread their nets to catch me; [it is as though] they have put those things along the road to catch/seize me.
6 मैले परमप्रभुलाई भनें, “तपाईं मेरो परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ । दयाको निम्ति मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस् ।”
I say to you, “Yahweh, you are my God;” [so] listen to me while I cry out to you to help me.
7 हे परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर, मलाई बचाउन तपाईं शक्तिसाली किसिमले सक्षम हुनुहुन्छ । युद्धको दिनमा तपाईंले मेरो शिरलाई छेक्नुहुन्छ ।
Yahweh, my Lord, you are the one who defends me strongly; you have [protected me] during battles [MET] [as though you had put a helmet on] my head.
8 हे परमप्रभु, दुष्टहरूका इच्छाहरू पुरा नगर्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूका षड्यन्त्रहरू सफल नहोऊन् । सेला
Yahweh, do allow wicked [people] to do the things that they desire, and do not allow them to do the [evil things that] they plan to do.
9 मलाई घेर्नेहरूले आफ्ना शिर उठाउँछन् । आफ्नै ओठहरूका उपद्रवले तिनीहरूलाई ढाकोस् ।
[Do not allow] my enemies to (become proud/defeat me); cause the evil things that they say [MTY] they will do to me to happen to them, [instead].
10 बलिरहेको भुङ्ग्रो तिनीहरूमाथि खसोस् । कहिल्यै नउठ्ने गरी तिनीहरूलाई आगोमा, अतलकुण्डमा फाल्नुहोस् ।
Cause burning coals to fall on their [heads]! Cause them to be thrown into deep pits, from which they cannot climb out!
11 निन्दा गर्ने जिब्रो भएका मानिसहरूलाई पृथ्वीमा सुरक्षित नगरियोस् । हिस्रक मानिसलाई हिर्काएर मार्न खराबीले त्यसलाई खेदोस् ।
Do not allow those who slander others to succeed; cause evil things to happen to violent men and destroy them!
12 कष्टमा परेकाहरूका पक्षमा परमप्रभुले न्याय गर्नुहुनेछ भनी म जान्दछु र उहाँले दरिद्रहरूलाई न्याय दिनुहुनेछ ।
Yahweh, I know that you defend those who are oppressed, and that you do what is just/fair for those who are needy/poor.
13 निश्चय नै धर्मी मानिसहरूले तपाईंको नाउँलाई धन्यवाद दिनेछन् । सोझा मानिसहरू तपाईंको उपस्थितिमा बस्नेछन् ।
Righteous [people] will surely thank you [MTY], and they will live (in your presence/with you).
