भजनसंग्रह 49
1 ए सबै मानिसहरू हो, यो कुरा सुन । ए संसारका सबै बासिन्दाहरू हो कान थाप ।
To him that excelleth. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. Heare this, all ye people: giue eare, all ye that dwell in the world,
2 माथिल्लो र तल्लो दर्जाका, गरीब र धनी दुवै एकसाथ ।
As well lowe as hie, both rich and poore.
3 मेरो मुखले बुद्धिका कुरा बोल्नेछ र मेरो हृदयको ध्यान समझको हुनेछ ।
My mouth shall speake of wisdome, and the meditation of mine heart is of knowledge.
4 म आफ्ना कान दृष्टान्तमा लगाउनेछु । म आफ्नो दृष्टान्तलाई वीणा बजाएर सुरु गर्नेछु ।
I will incline mine eare to a parable, and vtter my graue matter vpon the harpe.
5 जब अधर्मले मलाई घेरा हाल्छ, तब म किन खराब दिनहरूको डर मान्ने?
Wherefore should I feare in the euil dayes, when iniquitie shall compasse me about, as at mine heeles?
6 आफ्ना सम्पत्तिमा भरोसा गर्नेहरू र आफ्नो धेरै धन घमण्ड गर्नेहरूसँग म किन डराउने?
They trust in their goods, and boast them selues in the multitude of their riches.
7 यो निश्चय हो कि कसैले आफ्नो भाइलाई बचाउन वा त्यसको निम्ति परमेश्वरलाई छुकाराको मोल तिर्न सक्दैन,
Yet a man can by no meanes redeeme his brother: he can not giue his raunsome to God,
8 किनकि कसैको जीवनको छुटकारा मूल्य महङ्गो छ र हामीले तिर्नुपर्ने जति त कसैले तिर्न सक्दैन ।
(So precious is the redemption of their soules, and the continuance for euer)
9 कोही पनि सदासर्वदा जीवित रहन सक्दैन, ताकि त्यसको शरीर सडेर नजाओस् ।
That he may liue still for euer, and not see the graue.
10 किनकि त्यसले सडेको देख्नेछ । बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरू मर्छन् । मूर्ख र क्रूर त्यसरी नै नाश हुन्छन् र आफ्ना सम्पत्ति अरूलाई छोड्छन् ।
For he seeth that wise men die, and also that the ignorant and foolish perish, and leaue their riches for others.
11 आफ्ना परिवारहरू सधैंभरि निरन्तर रहन्छन्, र आफू बसोवास गरेका ठाउँहरू सबै पुस्तालाई हुन्छ भन्ने तिनीहरूका भित्री विचार हुन्छ । आफ्ना जमिनहरूलाई तिनीहरूले आफ्नै नाउँ दिन्छन्।
Yet they thinke, their houses, and their habitations shall continue for euer, euen from generation to generation, and call their lands by their names.
12 तर धन भए पनि मानिस सधैं बाँच्न सक्दैन । त्यो नष्ट हुने जङ्गली पशुजस्तै हो ।
But man shall not continue in honour: he is like the beastes that die.
13 तिनीहरूको यो मार्ग नै तिनीहरूको मूर्खता हो । तापनि तिनीहरू पछि, मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूका भनाइहरूलाई मान्यता दिन्छन् ।
This their way vttereth their foolishnes: yet their posteritie delite in their talke. (Selah)
14 भेडाहरूझैं ती चिहानको निम्ति नियुक्त हुन्छन्, र मृत्युचाहिं तिनीहरूका गोठाला हुनेछ । सोझाहरूले बिहान तिनीहरूमाथि राज्य गर्नेछन् र तिनीहरूलाई बस्ने कुनै ठाउँ नभई तिनीहरूका शरीरहरू चिहानमा नष्ट हुनेछन् । (Sheol h7585)
Like sheepe they lie in graue: death deuoureth them, and the righteous shall haue domination ouer them in the morning: for their beautie shall consume, when they shall goe from their house to graue. (Sheol h7585)
15 तर परमेश्वरले मेरो जीवनलाई चिहानको शक्तिबाट उद्धार गर्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले मलाई ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ । सेला (Sheol h7585)
But God shall deliuer my soule from the power of the graue: for he will receiue me. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
16 कोही धनी हुँदा र त्यसको घरको गौरव बढ्दा नडरा ।
Be not thou afrayd when one is made rich, and when the glory of his house is increased.
17 किनकि जब त्यो मर्नेछ, तब त्यसले कुनै कुरा पनि लानेछैन । त्यसको गौरव त्यसको पछिपछि जानेछैन ।
For he shall take nothing away when he dieth, neither shall his pompe descende after him.
18 त्यो जीवित हुँदा नै त्यसले आफ्नो प्राणलाई धन्यको भन्यो र जब तिमीले आफ्नो निम्ति जीवन बताउँछौ, तब मानिसहरूले तिम्रो प्रशंसा गर्छन्—
For while he liued, he reioyced himselfe: and men will prayse thee, when thou makest much of thy selfe.
19 त्यो आफ्नो पुर्खाहरूका पुस्तामा जानेछ र तिनीहरूले फेरि कहिल्यै त्योति देख्नेछैनन् ।
He shall enter into the generation of his fathers, and they shall not liue for euer.
20 जससँग सम्पत्ति छ, तर समझ छैन, त्यो जङ्गली पशुहरूजस्तै हो, जो नाश हुन्छ ।
Man is in honour, and vnderstandeth not: he is like to beasts that perish.
