< भजनसंग्रह 3 >
1 हे परमप्रभु, मेरा शत्रुहरू कति धैरै छन्! मेरो विरुद्ध धेरै जना खडा छन् ।
Yahweh, I have many enemies [DOU]! There are many people who oppose/rebel against me.
2 धेरै जनाले मेरो बारेमा भन्छन्, “त्यसको निम्ति परमेश्वरबाट कुनै सहायता छैन ।” सेला
Many people are saying about me, “God will [certainly] not help him!”
3 तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं मेरो वरिपरिको ढाल, मेरो महिमा हुनुहुन्छ, र जसले मेरो शिर उच्च पार्नुहुन्छ ।
But Yahweh, you are like a shield [that protects me] [MET]. You greatly honor me, and you encourage me (OR, enable me to triumph over my enemies) [IDM].
4 परमप्रभुमा म आफ्नो सोर उचाल्छु र आफ्नो पवित्र पहाडबाट उहाँले मलाई जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ । सेला
I cry out to you, Yahweh, and you answer me from [Zion], your sacred hill.
5 म ढल्किन्छु र सुत्छु । म ब्युँझिन्छु, किनकि परमप्रभुले मलाई सुरक्षा दिनुभयो ।
[At night] I lie down and sleep, and I awake [in the morning feeling good/refreshed] because you, Yahweh, (take care of/protect) me [all during the night].
6 मानिसहरूका भीडसँग म डराउनेछैन जो चारैतिर मेरो विरुद्धमा खडा भएका छन् ।
There may be thousands of [enemy] soldiers who surround me, but I am not afraid.
7 हे परमप्रभु, उठ्नुहोस्! हे परमेश्वर, मलाई बचाउनुहोस्! किनकि तपाईंले मेरा सबै शत्रुलाई बङ्गरामा हान्नुहुनेछ । तपाईंले दुष्टहरूका दाँतहरू भाँच्नुहुनेछ ।
Yahweh, arise! My God, [come and] rescue me [again]! You [insult] my enemies by slapping them on their cheeks; [when you strike them], you break their teeth, [with the result that they cannot hurt anyone] [MET].
8 उद्धार परमप्रभुबाट आउँछ । तपाईंका आशिष्हरू तपाईंका मानिसहरूमा रहोस् । सेला
Yahweh, you are the one who saves your people [from their enemies]. Yahweh, bless your people!
