< भजनसंग्रह 34 >
1 हरबखत म परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछु, उहाँको प्रशंसा सधैं मेरो मुखमा हुनेछ ।
“By David, when he disguised his reason before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.” I will bless the Lord at all times: continually shall his praise be in my mouth.
2 म परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछु । थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूले सुनून् र आनन्दित होऊन् ।
My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear it, and be rejoiced.
3 मसँगै परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर, हामी एकसाथ मिलेर उहाँको नाउँलाई उच्च पारौं ।
Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 मैले रमप्रभुको खोजी गरें र उहाँले मलाई जवाफ दिनुभयो, र मेरा सबै डरमाथि उहाँले मलाई विजय दिनुभयो ।
I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and from all that I dreaded did he deliver me.
5 उहाँलाई हे्र्नेहरू उज्ज्वल हुन्छन् र तिनीहरू मुहार लज्जित हुँदैन ।
They [who] looked unto him, were indeed enlightened, and their faces were not put to the blush.
6 यो थिचोमिचोमा परेको मानिसले पुकारा गर्यो र परमप्रभुले त्यसको पुकारा सुन्नुभयो, र त्यसका सबै दुःखबाट त्यसलाई बचाउनुभयो ।
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and out of all his distresses did he save him.
7 परमप्रभुका दूतहरूले उहाँको भय मान्नेहरूका चारैतिर छाउनी बनाउँछन् र तिनीहरूलाई बचाउँछन् ।
The angel of the Lord encampeth round about those who fear him, and delivereth them.
8 परमप्रभु असल हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने कुरा जाँच र हेर । उहाँमा शरण लिने मानिस धन्यको हो ।
Experience and see that the Lord is good: happy is the man that trusteth in him.
9 ए परमप्रभुका पवित्र मानिस हो, उहाँको भय मान । उहाँको भय मान्नेहरूलाई कुनै कुराको खाँचो हुँदैन ।
Oh fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to those who fear him.
10 जवान सिंहहरूलाई कहिलेकाहीं खानाकुरा खाँचो पर्छ र भोकाउँछन्, तर परमप्रभुको खोजी गर्नेहरूलाई कुनै असल कुरा खाँचो हुँदैन ।
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; but those who seek the Lord shall not want any good.
11 ए छोराहरू हो, आओ, मेरो कुरा सुन । तिमीहरूलाई म परमप्रभुको भय मान्न सिकाउनेछु ।
Come, ye children, hearken unto me: the fear of the Lord will I teach you.
12 जीवन चाहने र असल कुरा हेर्नलाई धेरै दिन मन पराउने मानिस कस्तो हुन्छ?
Who is the man that desireth life, loveth [many] days, that he may see happiness?
13 त्यसो हो भने, आफ्नो जिब्रोलाई खराबीदेखि र आफ्ना ओठहरूलाई झुट बोल्नदेखि जोगाओ ।
Guard thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking deceit.
14 खराबीबाट फर्क र असल गर । शान्ति खोज र त्यसको पछि लाग ।
Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 परमप्रभुको दृष्टि धर्मीहरूमा हुन्छन् र उहाँका कानहरू तिनीहरूका पुकारमा हुन्छन् ।
The eyes of the Lord are directed unto the righteous, and his ears unto their cry.
16 खराबी गर्नेहरूका सम्झना पृथ्वीबाट मेटाउनलाई परमप्रभुको मुहार तिनीहरूका विरुद्धमा हुन्छ ।
[But] the anger of the Lord is against those that do evil, to cut off from the earth their remembrance.
17 धर्मीहरूले पुकारा गर्छन्, र परमप्रभुले सुन्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरूका सबै कष्टबाट उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई बचाउनुहुन्छ ।
Those cry, and the Lord heareth, and from all their distresses he delivereth them.
18 परमप्रभु तोडिएको हृदय भएकाहरूका नजिक हुनुहुन्छ र आत्मामा चूर्ण भएकाहरूलाई उहाँले बचाउनुहुन्छ ।
The Lord is nigh unto those that are broken-hearted: and he saveth those that are of a contrite spirit.
19 धर्मीहरूको कष्टहरू धेरै हुन्छन्, तर ति सबैबाट परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुहुन्छ ।
Many are the afflictions of the righteous; but out of them all the Lord ever delivereth him.
20 त्यसका सबै हाडलाई उहाँले सुरक्षित राख्नुहुन्छ, तिमध्ये एउटा पनि भाँचिनेछैन ।
He watcheth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 खराबीले दुष्टलाई मार्ने छ । धर्मीलाई घृणा गर्ने दोषि ठहरिने छ ।
The evil will slay the wicked: and they who hate the righteous shall incur guiltiness.
22 परमप्रभुले आफ्ना सेवकहरूका जीवनलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँमा शरण नलिनेहरू कसैलाई पनि दोषी ठहराइनेछैन ।
The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and all that trust in him shall not incur guiltiness.
