< भजनसंग्रह 19 >
1 आकाशले परमेश्वरको महिमा घोषणा गर्छ र आकाशहरूले उहाँका हातका कामहरूको घोषणा गर्छन् ।
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” The heavens relate the glory of God; and the expanse telleth of the works of his hands.
2 दिनदिनै भाषण दिन्छ । त्यसले हरेक रात ज्ञान प्रकट गर्छ ।
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
3 त्यहाँ कुनै बोली वा शब्दको आवाज सुनिंदैन। तिनीहरूका आवाज सुनिंएको हुँदैन ।
There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard.
4 तापनि तिनका शब्दहरू सारा पृथ्वीभरि जान्छन् र तिनीहरूका भाषण संसारको अन्तसम्म नै पुग्छ । तिनीहरूका माझमा सूर्यको निम्ति उहाँले पाल टाँग्नुभएको छ ।
[But] their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words. For the sun hath he set a tabernacle among them;
5 सूर्यचाहिं दुलहा आफ्नो कोठाबाट बाहिर आइरहेको जस्तै हो र आफ्नो दौड सिद्याउँदा आनन्दित हुने बलियो मानिसजस्तै हो ।
And he goeth out as a bridegroom from his chamber, he is glad like a strong man to run his course;
6 एक छेउमा सूर्य उदाउँछ र आकाश पार गरेर अर्को छेउमा पुग्छ । त्यसको तातोबाट कुनै कुरा पनि उम्कँदैन ।
From the end of the heavens is his going forth, and his circuit is unto their ends: and there is nothing hidden from his heat.
7 परमप्रभुको व्यवस्था सिद्ध छ, प्राणलाई पुर्नजीवित पार्ने । परमप्रभुको साक्षी भरपर्दो छ, सोझोलाई बुद्धिमान बनाउने ।
The law of the Lord is perfect, quieting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 परमप्रभुका शिक्षाहरू ठीक छन्, हृदयलाई खुसी पार्ने । परमप्रभुको आज्ञा शुद्ध छन्, आँखालाई ज्योति दिने ।
The precepts of the Lord are upright, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
9 परमप्रभुको भय शुद्ध छ, यो सदासर्वदा रहने । परमप्रभुका धार्मिक आदेशहरू सत्य र समग्रमा ठिक छन् ।
The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the ordinances of the Lord are the truth, they are just altogether.
10 तिनीहरू सुनभन्दा, धेरै शुद्ध सुनभन्दा मूल्यवान छन् । तिनीहरू मह र चाकाबाट चुहिंरहेको महभन्दा पनि गुलिया छन् ।
They are those which are to be desired more than gold, and much fine gold; and they are sweeter than honey and the dropping of honeycomb.
11 हो, तिद्वारा तपाईंका सेवकहरूले चेतावनी पाउँछन् । ति पलना गर्नुमा ठुलो इनाम छ ।
Moreover thy servant is admonished by them: in keeping them there is great reward.
12 कसले आफ्ना सबै गल्तीहरू बुझ्न सक्छ? मलाई लुकेका गल्तीहरूबाट शुद्ध पार्नुहोस् ।
Who can guard against errors? from secret [faults] do thou cleanse me.
13 तपाईंको दासलाई अहङ्कारका पापहरूबाट बचाउनुहोस्, तिनीहरूले ममाथि राज्य नगरून् । तब म सिद्ध हुनेछु र धेरै अपराधहरूबाट म निर्दोष हुनेछु ।
Also from presumptuous [sins] withhold thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from any great transgression.
14 हे परमप्रभु, मेरो चट्टान र मेरो उद्धारक, मेरा मुखका शब्दहरू र मेरा हृदयका विचारहरू तपाईंको दृष्टिमा ग्रहणयोग्य होऊन् ।
May the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable before thee, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
