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 musician, to Jeduthun, a psalm of David.” I said, I will guard my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will guard my mouth with a muzzle, while the wicked is before me.
2 म शान्‍त बसें । कुनै असल कुरा भन्‍नलाई पनि मैले आफ्‍नो मुख खोलिनँ र मेरो दुःख झन् बढी भयो ।
I was dumb in deep silence, I was quite still, even from [speaking] good; but my pain was greatly excited;
3 मेरो हृदय तातो भयो । जब मैले यी कुराका बारेमा विचार गरें, तब त्‍यो आगोझैं बल्यो । तब अन्तमा मैले बोलें ।
My heart was hot within me, in my self-communing there burnt a fire: [then] spoke I 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 ।
Let me know, O Lord, my end, and the measure of my days, what it is: I wish to know when I shall cease to be.
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
Behold, measured out with the span hast thou made my days; and my whole duration is nothing before thee: yea, as nothing but vanity doth every man stand here. (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 ।
As nothing but a shadowy image doth man walk about, yea, for vanity only do all make a noise: he heapeth up his gains, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7 हे परमप्रभु, म के पर्खिरहेको छु? मेरो एक मात्र आसा तपाईं हुनुहुन्छ ।
And now, what shall I wait for, O Lord? my hope is in thee.
8 मेरा पापहरूबाट मलाई बचाउनुहोस् । मलाई मूर्खहरूको निन्दा नबाउनुहोस् ।
From all my transgressions deliver thou me: render me not the object of reproach of the worthless.
9 म शान्‍त छु र मेरो मुख खोल्न सक्दिनँ, किनभने त्‍यो गर्ने तपाईं नै हुनुहुन्छ ।
I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou hadst done it.
10 मलाई चोट दिन छोड्नुहोस् । तपाईंको हातको मुक्‍काले म विह्‍वल भएको छु ।
Remove thou thy plague away from me: from the blows of thy hand am I consumed.
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
When thou with corrections chastisest man for iniquity, thou causest his excellence to melt away as [if eaten by] the moth: yea, nothing but vanity is every man. (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 ।
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; be not silent at my tears; for a stranger am I with thee, a sojourner, like all my fathers.
13 मबाट तपाईंको हेराइलाई हटाउनुहोस् ताकि म मर्नअघि म फेरि मुसुक्‍क हाँस्‍न सकौं।
Leave off from me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and am no more.
