< भजनसंग्रह 142 >
1 आफ्नो सोर निकालेर सहायताको निम्ति म परमप्रभुमा पुकारा गर्छु । आफ्नो सोर निकालेर परमप्रभुको कृपाको निम्ति म बिन्ती गर्छु ।
Maschil. Of David. A prayer when he was in the hole of the rock. The sound of my cry went up to the Lord; with my voice I made my prayer for grace to the Lord.
2 उहाँको सामु म आफ्नो विलाप खन्याउँछु । उहाँलाई म आफ्ना कष्टहरू भन्छु ।
I put all my sorrows before him; and made clear to him all my trouble.
3 मेरो आत्मा मभित्र कमजोर हुँदा, तपाईंले मेरो मार्ग जान्नुहुन्छ । म हिंड्ने बाटोमा तिनीहरूले मेरो निम्ति धराप थापेका छन् ।
When my spirit is overcome, your eyes are on my goings; nets have been secretly placed in the way in which I go.
4 म आफ्नो दायाँतिर हेर्छु र त्यहाँ एक जना पनि देख्दिनँ जसले मेरो वास्ता गर्छ । म बाँच्ने ठाउँ कहीं छैन । मेरो जीवनको बारेमा कसैले पनि वास्ता गर्दैन ।
Looking to my right side, I saw no man who was my friend: I had no safe place; no one had any care for my soul.
5 हे परमप्रभु, मैले तपाईंमा पुकारा गरें । मैले भनें, “तपाईं नै मेरो शरण, जीवितहरूका देशमा मेरो भाग हुनुहुन्छ ।
I have made my cry to you, O Lord; I have said, You are my safe place, and my heritage in the land of the living.
6 मेरो पुकारा सुन्नुहोस्, किनकि मलाई धेरै तल झारिएको छ । मेरो सतावट गर्नेहरूबाट मलाई बचाउनुहोस्, किनकि तिनीहरू मभन्दा बलिया छन् ।
Give ear to my cry, for I am made very low: take me out of the hands of my haters, for they are stronger than I.
7 मेरो प्राणलाई कैदबाट बाहिर निकाल्नुहोस्, ताकि म तपाईंको नाउँलाई धन्यवाद दिन सकूँ । धर्मीहरू मेरो चारैतिर भेला हुन्छन् किनभने तपाईं मप्रति असल हुनुभएको छ ।”
Take my soul out of prison, so that I may give praise to your name: the upright will give praise because of me; for you have given me a full reward.
