भजनसंग्रह 17
1 हे परमप्रभु, न्यायको निम्ति मेरो बिन्ती सुन्नुहोस् । मदतको निम्ति मेरो पुकारामा ध्यान दिनुहोस् । मेरो छलरहित ओठको मेरो प्रार्थनामा कान थाप्नुहोस् ।
A prayer of David. Lord, please hear my cry for justice! Please pay attention to my call for help! Listen to the prayer of an honest man!
2 मेरो निर्दोषता तपाईंको उपस्थितिबाट आओस् । तपाईंको आँखाले जे ठिक छ सो देखून् ।
Vindicate me before you—for you see what is right.
3 तपाईंले मेरो हृदय जाँच्नुहुन्छ भने, राति तपाईं मकहाँ आउनुहुन्छ भने, तपाईंले मलाई शुद्ध पार्नुहुनेछ र कुनै दुष्ट योजनाहरू पाउनुहुनेछैन । मेरो मुखले अपराध गर्नेछैन ।
You have observed my thoughts, you have visited me at night, you have examined me—and you have found nothing wrong. I promised myself I wouldn't say anything I shouldn't.
4 मानिसजातिका कामहरूका बारेमा, तपाईंको मुखको वचनले मैले आफैंलाई अराजकका चालबाट अलग राखेको छु ।
With regard to the actions of others: I have done what you told me and I have avoided what violent people do.
5 मेरा पाइलाहरू तपाईंका मार्गहरूमा दृढतासाथ अडिग छन् । मेरा पाइलाहरू चिप्लेका छैनन् ।
I have not strayed from your path; my feet have not slipped from it.
6 हे परमेश्वर, म तपाईंमा पुकार्छु, किनकि तपाईंले मलाई जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ । आफ्नो कान मतिर फर्काउनुहोस् र म बोल्दा सुन्नुहोस् ।
God, I call out to you because I know you will answer; please listen carefully to what I have to say.
7 आफ्ना शत्रुहरूबाट तपाईंमा शरण लिनेहरूलाई तपाईं जसले आफ्नो दाहिने बाहुलिले बचाउनुहुन्छ, आफ्नो करारको विश्वस्तता अचम्म किसिमले देखाउनुहोस् ।
Show me how wonderful your trustworthy love really is, Savior of those who come to you for protection against their enemies!
8 आफ्नो आँखाको नानीलाई झैं मेरो सुरक्षा गर्नुहोस् । आफ्नो पखेटाको छायामुनि मलाई लुकाउनुहोस् ।
Keep me safe as someone you love; hide me underneath your wings.
9 मलाई आक्रमण गर्ने व्यक्तिको उपस्थितिबाट, मलाई घेरा हाल्ने मेरा शत्रुहरूबाट ।
Protect me from the attacks of the wicked who want to destroy me, from my enemies who surround me, intent on killing me.
10 तिनीहरूले कसैलाई दया गर्दैनन् । तिनीहरूका मुखहरूले घमण्डसाथ बोल्छन् ।
They have no compassion, and all they have to say is pure arrogance.
11 तिनीहरूले मेरा पाइलाहरूलाई घेरेका छन् । मलाई प्रहार गरेर जमिनमा ढाल्नलाई तिनीहरूले आफ्ना आँखा लगाउँछन् ।
They hunt me down and surround me, looking for the chance to knock me down in the dust.
12 तिनीहरू शिकारको उत्कट इच्छा गर्ने सिंहझैं, लुक्ने ठाउँहरूमा ढुकिरहेको जवान सिंहझैं छन् ।
They are like lions, longing to tear their prey apart; like fierce lions crouching in ambush.
13 हे परमप्रभु, उठ्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गर्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूकै सामु तिनीहरूलाई पछार्नुहोस् । तपाईंको तरवारले मेरो जीवनलाई दुष्टबाट बचाउनुहोस् ।
Lord, stand up and confront them! Force them to back down! By your sword rescue me from the wicked!
14 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको हातले मानिसहरूबाट मलाई छुटकारा दिनुहोस्, यस संसारका मानिसहरू जसको समृद्धि यस जीवनमा मात्र छ । तपाईंले आफ्ना बहुमूल्यहरूका पेट दौलतले भर्नुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूका धेरै छोराछोरी हुनेछन् र आफ्ना धन आफ्ना छोराछोरीलाई छोड्नेछन् ।
Lord, by your power, save me from people whose only thought is for this world. May they be filled with what you have in store for them, their children too, with left-overs for their grandchildren!
15 मेरो बारेमा, म धार्मिकतामा तपाईंको मुहार हेर्नेछु । तपाईंको दृष्टिमा म ब्युँझँदा, म सन्तुष्ट हुनेछु ।
As for me, I shall see your face in all its goodness. When I awake, I will be so pleased to see you face to face.
