< भजनसंग्रह 39 >
1 मैले निर्णय गरें, “म जे भन्छु सो कुरामा म सावधान हुनेछु ताकि मेरो जिब्रोले म पाप नगरुँ । खराब मानिसको उपस्थितिमा हुँदा म आफ्नो मुखलाई चूप राख्नेछु ।”
To the chief music-maker. Of Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. I said, I will give attention to my ways, so that my tongue may do no wrong; I will keep my mouth under control, while the sinner is before me.
2 म शान्त बसें । कुनै असल कुरा भन्नलाई पनि मैले आफ्नो मुख खोलिनँ र मेरो दुःख झन् बढी भयो ।
I made no sound, I said no word, even of good; and I was moved with sorrow.
3 मेरो हृदय तातो भयो । जब मैले यी कुराका बारेमा विचार गरें, तब त्यो आगोझैं बल्यो । तब अन्तमा मैले बोलें ।
My heart was burning in my breast; while I was deep in thought the fire was lighted; then I said with my tongue,
4 “हे परमप्रभु, मेरो जीवनको अन्त कहिले हुन्छ र मेरो समय कहिलेसम्म छ सो मलाई जान्न दिनुहोस् । म कति क्षणिक छु भनी मलाई देखाउनुहोस् ।
Lord, give me knowledge of my end, and of the measure of my days, so that I may see how feeble I am.
5 हेर्नुहोस्, तपाईंले मेरो समय मेरो हातको बित्ताभरिको मात्र बनाउनुभएको छ र मेरो जीवनकाल तपाईंको सामु केही पनि होइन । निश्चय नै, हरेक मानिस एक सास मात्र हो । सेला
You have made my days no longer than a hand's measure; and my years are nothing in your eyes; truly, every man is but a breath. (Selah)
6 निश्चय नै हरेक मानिस छाया झैं हिंड्डुल गर्छ । निश्चय नै हरेक व्यक्ति धन थुपार्न हतार गर्छ, तापनि ति कसले पाउनेछ भनी तिनीहरू जान्दैनन् ।
Truly, every man goes on his way like an image; he is troubled for no purpose: he makes a great store of wealth, and has no knowledge of who will get it.
7 हे परमप्रभु, म के पर्खिरहेको छु? मेरो एक मात्र आसा तपाईं हुनुहुन्छ ।
And now, Lord, what am I waiting for? my hope is in you.
8 मेरा पापहरूबाट मलाई बचाउनुहोस् । मलाई मूर्खहरूको निन्दा नबाउनुहोस् ।
Make me free from all my sins; do not let me be shamed by the man of evil behaviour.
9 म शान्त छु र मेरो मुख खोल्न सक्दिनँ, किनभने त्यो गर्ने तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ ।
I was quiet, and kept my mouth shut; because you had done it.
10 मलाई चोट दिन छोड्नुहोस् । तपाईंको हातको मुक्काले म विह्वल भएको छु ।
No longer let your hand be hard on me; I am wasted by the blows of your hand.
11 जब तपाईंले मानिसहरूलाई पापको निम्ति अनुशासन गर्नुहुन्छ, तब तिनीहरूले इच्छा गर्ने कुरालाई तपाईंले कीराले झैं नष्ट पार्नुहुन्छ । निश्चय नै सबै मानिसहरू बाफबाहेक केही पनि होइन । सेला
By the weight of your wrath against man's sin, the glory of his form is wasted away; truly every man is but a breath. (Selah)
12 हे परमप्रभु, मेरो प्रार्थना सुन्नुहोस् र मेरो कुरामा ध्यान दिनुहोस् । मेरो रोदन सुन्नुहोस् । मेरो कुरामा बहिरो नहुनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईंसँग म विदेशीजस्तै, मेरा सबै पुर्खाजस्तै एक जना शरणार्थी हुँ ।
Let my prayer come to your ears, O Lord, and give attention to my cry, make an answer to my weeping: for my time here is short before you, and in a little time I will be gone, like all my fathers.
13 मबाट तपाईंको हेराइलाई हटाउनुहोस् ताकि म मर्नअघि म फेरि मुसुक्क हाँस्न सकौं।
Let your wrath be turned away from me, so that I may be comforted, before I go away from here, and become nothing.
