< भजनसंग्रह 33 >
1 ए धर्मीहरू हो, परमप्रभुमा आनन्दित होओ । सोझाहरूले प्रशंसा गर्न सुहाउँछ ।
Be glad in the Lord, O doers of righteousness; for praise is beautiful for the upright.
2 वीणा बजाएर परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवाद देओ । दस तारे सारङ्गीसँगै उहाँको प्रशंसा गर ।
Give praise to the Lord on the corded instrument; make melody to him with instruments of music.
3 उहाँको निम्ति एउटा नयाँ गीत गाओ । निपुणता साथ बजाओ र आनन्दले गाओ ।
Make a new song to him; playing expertly with a loud noise.
4 किनकि परमप्रभुको वचन ठीक छ र उहाँले गर्ने हरेक कुरा न्यायोचित छ ।
For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his works are certain.
5 उहाँले धार्मिकता र न्यायलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्छ । पृथ्वी परमप्रभुको करारको विश्वस्तताले पूर्ण छ ।
His delight is in righteousness and wisdom; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
6 परमप्रभुको वचनले आकाशको सृष्टि भयो र सबै ताराहरू उहाँको मुखको सासले बनिएका थिए ।
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the army of heaven by the breath of his mouth.
7 उहाँले समुद्रको पानीलाई एक ठाउँमा थुप्रोझैं जम्मा गर्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले महासागरहरूलाई भण्डारहरूमा राख्नुहुन्छ ।
He makes the waters of the sea come together in a mass; he keeps the deep seas in store-houses.
8 सारा पृथ्वीले परमप्रभुको भय मानोस् । संसारका सबै बासिन्दा उहाँको भयमा खडा होऊन् ।
Let the earth be full of the fear of the Lord; let all the people of the world be in holy fear of him.
9 किनकि उहाँले बोल्नुभयो र त्यो हुन आयो । उहाँले आज्ञा गर्नुभयो र यो ठाउँमा खडा भयो ।
For he gave the word, and it was done; by his order it was fixed for ever.
10 परमप्रभुले जातिहरूका मित्रतालाई व्यर्थ तुल्याउनुहुन्छ । उहाँले मानिसहरूका योजनाहरूलाई रद्द गर्नुहुन्छ ।
The Lord undoes the designs of the nations; he makes the thoughts of the peoples without effect.
11 परमप्रभुको योजना सदासर्वदा रहन्छ, उहाँको हृदयका योजनाहरू सबै पुस्ताका निम्ति रहन्छ ।
The Lord's purpose is eternal, the designs of his heart go on through all the generations of man.
12 त्यो जाति धन्यको हो जसको परमेश्वर परमप्रभु हुनुहुन्छ, ती मानिसहरू जसलाई आफ्नै उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा उहाँले चुन्नुभएको छ ।
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he has taken for his heritage.
13 परमप्रभुले स्वर्गबाट हेर्नुहुन्छ । उहाँले सबै मानिसलाई देख्नुहुन्छ ।
The Lord is looking down from heaven; he sees all the sons of men;
14 आफू बस्नुहुने ठाउँबाट तल पृथ्वीमा बस्ने सबैलाई उहाँले हे्र्नुहुन्छ ।
From his house he keeps watch on all who are living on the earth;
15 तिनीहरू सबैका हृदयहरू बनाउनुहुनेले तिनीहरूका सबै कामहरू हेर्नुहुन्छ ।
He makes all their hearts; their works are clear to him.
16 ठुलो फौजद्वारा कुनै पनि राजा बाँच्न सक्दैन । आफ्नो महाबलले कुनै पनि योद्धा बाँच्न सक्दैन ।
A king's salvation is not in the power of his army; a strong man does not get free by his great strength.
17 घोडाचाहिं विजयको निम्ति झुटो आसा हो । त्यसको महान् बल भए पनि त्यसले बचाउन सक्दैन ।
A horse is a false hope; his great power will not make any man free from danger.
18 हेर, परमप्रभुको आँखा उहाँको भय मान्नेहरूमाथि र उहाँको करारको विश्वस्ततामा आसा गर्नेहरूमाथि रहन्छ ।
See, the eye of the Lord is on those in whose hearts is the fear of him, on those whose hope is in his mercy;
19 तिनीहरूका जीवन मृत्युबाट छुट्टाउन र अनिकालको समयमा तिनीहरूलाई जीवित राख्नलाई ।
To keep their souls from death; and to keep them living in time of need.
20 हामी परमप्रभुको आसा गर्छौं । उहाँ हाम्रो सहायता र हाम्रो ढाल हुनुहुन्छ ।
Our souls are waiting for the Lord; he is our help and our salvation.
21 हाम्रा हृदयहरू उहाँमा आनन्दित हुन्छन्, किनकि उहाँको पवित्र नाउँमा हामी भरोसा गर्छौं ।
For in him our hearts have joy; in his holy name is our hope.
22 हे परमप्रभु, हामीले आफ्नो आसा तपाईंमा राख्दा, तपाईंको करारको विश्वस्तता हामीसँग रहोस् ।
Let your mercy be on us, O Lord, as we are waiting for you.
