भजनसंग्रह 44
1 हे परमेश्वर, हामीले हाम्रो कानले सुनेका छौं, हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूका समयमा, प्राचीन दिनहरूमा जे काम तपाईंले गर्नुभयो ति तिनीहरूले हामीलाई भनेका छन् ।
For the end, a Psalm for instruction, for the sons of Core. O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us, the work which you wrought in their days, in the days of old.
2 तपाईंले जातिहरूलाई आफ्नै हातले लखेट्नुभयो, तर तपाईंले हाम्रा मानिसहरूलाई बसाल्नुभयो । तपाईंले मानिसहरूलाई कष्ट दिनुभयो तर तपाईंले देशमा हाम्रा मानिसहरूलाई फैलाउनुभयो ।
Your hand utterly destroyed the heathen, and you did plant them: you did afflict the nations, and cast them out.
3 किनकि तिनीहरूले आफ्नो लागि देश अधिकार गर्नलाई आफ्नै तरवारले प्राप्त गरेनन्, न त तिनीहरूको आफ्नै पाखुराले तिनीहरूलाई बचाए । तर तपाईंको दाहिने हात, तपाईंको पाखुरा र तपाईंको मुहारको ज्योतिले बचायो, किनभने उनीहरूप्रति तपाईं कृपालु हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
For they inherited not the land by their [own] sword, and their [own] arm did not deliver them; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your countenance, because you were well pleased in them.
4 हे परमेश्वर, तपाईं मेरो राजा हुनुहुन्छ । याकूबको निम्ति विजय दिनुहोस् ।
You are indeed my King and my God, who command deliverances for Jacob.
5 तपाईंद्वारा नै हामी आफ्ना शत्रुहरूलाई धकेल्नेछौं । हाम्रा विरुद्ध खडा हुनेहरूलाई तपाईंको नाउँद्वारा नै हामी कुल्चनेछौं ।
In you will we push down our enemies, and in your name will we bring to nothing them that rise up against us.
6 किनकि म आफ्नो धनुमा भरोसा गर्नेछैनँ, न त मलाई मेरो तरवारले बचाउनेछ ।
For I will not trust in my bow, and my sword shall not save me.
7 तर हाम्रो शत्रहरूबाट तपाईंले हामीलाई बाचउनुभएको छ र हामीलाई घृणा गर्नेहरूलाई लाजमा पार्नुभएको छ ।
For you have saved us from them that afflicted us, and have put to shame them that hated us.
8 दिनभरि हामीले परमेश्वरमा नै गर्व गरेका छौं र तपाईंको नाउँलाई नै हामी सदासर्वदा धन्यवाद दिनेछौं । सेला
In God will we make our boast all the day, and to your name will we give thanks for ever. (Pause)
9 तर अहिले तपाईंले हामीलाई फाल्नुभएको र हामीमाथि अनादर ल्याउनुभएको छ, र हाम्रा फौजसँग तपाईं जानुहुन्न ।
But now you have cast off, and put us to shame; and you will not go forth with our hosts.
10 तपाईंले हामीलाई शत्रुबाट फर्काउनुहुन्छ । अनि हामीलाई घृणा गर्नेहरूले आफ्नो निम्ति लूट्न्छन् ।
You have turned us back before our enemies; and they that hated us spoiled for themselves.
11 तपाईंले हामीलाई मार्न लगिएका भेडाझैं बनाउनुभएको छ र हामीलाई जातिहरूका माझमा तितरबितर पार्नुभएको छ ।
You made us as sheep for meat; and you scattered us among the nations.
12 तपाईंले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई सित्तैंमा बेच्नुभएको छ, यसो गरेर तपाईंले आफ्नो सम्पत्ति वृद्धि गर्नुभएको छैन ।
You have sold your people without price, and there was no profit by their exchange.
13 तपाईंले हामीलाई हाम्रो छिमेकीहरूको हप्की बनाउनुन्छ, हाम्रा वरिपरिकाहरूले गिल्ला र खिसी गरे ।
You have made us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision them that are round about us.
14 तपाईंले हामीलाई जातिहरूका माझमा अपमान, मानिसहरूले घृणाले शिर हल्लाउने बनाउनुहुन्छ ।
You have made us a proverb among the Gentiles, a shaking of the head among the nations.
15 दिनभरि मेरि अनादर मेरो सामु हुन्छ र मेरो मुहारको लाजले मलाई ढाकेको छ,
All the day my shame is before me, and the confusion of my face has covered me,
16 हप्काउने र अपमान गर्ने सोरको कारणले, शत्रुहरू र बदला लिनेहरूको कारणले ।
because of the voice of the slanderer and reviler; because of the enemy and avenger.
17 यी सबै कुरा हामीमा हुन आएका छन् । तापनि हामीले तपाईंलाई बिर्सेका वा तपाईंको करारसँग झुटो किसिमले व्यवहार गरेका छैनौं ।
All these things are come upon us: but we have not forgotten you, neither have we dealt unrighteously in your covenant.
18 हाम्रो हृदय बरालिएको छैन । हाम्रा कदमहरू तपाईको मार्गबाट भड्किएका छैनन् ।
And our heart has not gone back; but you have turned aside our paths from your way.
19 तापनि तपाईंले हामीलाई गम्भिर रूपले नष्ट पारेर स्यालहरूका ठाउँ बनाउनुभएको छ र हामीलाई मृत्युको छायाले ढाक्नुभएको छ ।
For you have laid us low in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.
20 हामीले आफ्नो परमेश्वरको नाउँ बिर्सेका वा हाम्रा हातहरू विदेशी देवताहरूतिर फैलाएका छौं भने,
If we have forgotten the name of our God, and if we have spread out our hands to a strange god; shall not God search these things out?
21 के परमेश्वर यो कुरा खोजी गर्नुहुन्नथ्यो र? किनकि हृदयका गोप्यताहरू उहाँले जान्नुहुन्छ ।
for he knows the secrets of the heart.
22 वस्तवमा, तपाईंकै खातिर हामी दिनभरि मारिंदैछौं । मार्न लगिएका भेडाहरूझै हामी ठानिएका छौं ।
For, for your sake we are killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for slaughter.
23 हे परमप्रभु, जाग्नुहोस्, तपाईं किन सुत्नुहुन्छ? उठ्नुहोस्, हामीलाई स्थायी रूपमा नफाल्नुहोस् ।
Awake, therefore sleep you, O Lord? arise, and do not cast [us] off for ever.
24 तपाईंले किन आफ्नो मुहार लुकाउनुहुन्छ र हाम्रा कष्ट र हाम्रा अत्याचारलाई बिर्सनुहुन्छ?
Therefore turn you your face away, [and] forget our poverty and our affliction?
25 किनकि हामी पग्लेर धूलोमा मिलेका छौं । हाम्रा शरीरहरू भूइँमा टाँसिन्छन् ।
For our soul has been brought down to the dust; our belly has cleaved to the earth.
26 हाम्रो सहायताको निम्ति उठ्नुहोस् र आफ्नो करारको विश्वस्तताको निम्ति हाम्रो उद्धार गर्नुहोस् ।
Arise, O Lord, help us, and redeem us for your name's sake.
