भजनसंग्रह 49
1 ए सबै मानिसहरू हो, यो कुरा सुन । ए संसारका सबै बासिन्दाहरू हो कान थाप ।
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Hear this, all you peoples, Give ear, all you inhabitants of the world.
2 माथिल्लो र तल्लो दर्जाका, गरीब र धनी दुवै एकसाथ ।
Both low and high, together rich and needy.
3 मेरो मुखले बुद्धिका कुरा बोल्नेछ र मेरो हृदयको ध्यान समझको हुनेछ ।
My mouth speaks wise things, And the meditations of my heart [are] things of understanding.
4 म आफ्ना कान दृष्टान्तमा लगाउनेछु । म आफ्नो दृष्टान्तलाई वीणा बजाएर सुरु गर्नेछु ।
I incline my ear to an allegory, I open my riddle with a harp:
5 जब अधर्मले मलाई घेरा हाल्छ, तब म किन खराब दिनहरूको डर मान्ने?
Why do I fear in days of evil? The iniquity of my supplanters surrounds me.
6 आफ्ना सम्पत्तिमा भरोसा गर्नेहरू र आफ्नो धेरै धन घमण्ड गर्नेहरूसँग म किन डराउने?
Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of their riches, Show themselves foolish.
7 यो निश्चय हो कि कसैले आफ्नो भाइलाई बचाउन वा त्यसको निम्ति परमेश्वरलाई छुकाराको मोल तिर्न सक्दैन,
A brother ransoms no one at all, He does not give to God his atonement.
8 किनकि कसैको जीवनको छुटकारा मूल्य महङ्गो छ र हामीले तिर्नुपर्ने जति त कसैले तिर्न सक्दैन ।
And precious [is] the redemption of their soul, And it has ceased for all time.
9 कोही पनि सदासर्वदा जीवित रहन सक्दैन, ताकि त्यसको शरीर सडेर नजाओस् ।
And still he lives forever, He does not see the pit.
10 किनकि त्यसले सडेको देख्नेछ । बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरू मर्छन् । मूर्ख र क्रूर त्यसरी नै नाश हुन्छन् र आफ्ना सम्पत्ति अरूलाई छोड्छन् ।
For he sees wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left their wealth to 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।
Their heart [is that] their houses [are] for all time, Their dwelling places from generation to generation. They proclaimed their names over the lands.
12 तर धन भए पनि मानिस सधैं बाँच्न सक्दैन । त्यो नष्ट हुने जङ्गली पशुजस्तै हो ।
And man does not remain in honor, He has been like the beasts, they have been cut off.
13 तिनीहरूको यो मार्ग नै तिनीहरूको मूर्खता हो । तापनि तिनीहरू पछि, मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूका भनाइहरूलाई मान्यता दिन्छन् ।
This their way [is] folly for them, And their posterity are pleased with their sayings. (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)
They have set themselves as sheep for Sheol, Death afflicts them, And the upright rule over them in the morning, And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for him. (Sheol h7585)
15 तर परमेश्वरले मेरो जीवनलाई चिहानको शक्तिबाट उद्धार गर्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले मलाई ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ । सेला (Sheol h7585)
Only, God ransoms my soul from the hand of Sheol, For He receives me. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
16 कोही धनी हुँदा र त्यसको घरको गौरव बढ्दा नडरा ।
Do not fear when one makes wealth, When the glory of his house is abundant,
17 किनकि जब त्यो मर्नेछ, तब त्यसले कुनै कुरा पनि लानेछैन । त्यसको गौरव त्यसको पछिपछि जानेछैन ।
For at his death he receives nothing, His glory does not go down 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 he blesses his soul in his life (And they praise you when you do well for yourself).
19 त्यो आफ्नो पुर्खाहरूका पुस्तामा जानेछ र तिनीहरूले फेरि कहिल्यै त्योति देख्नेछैनन् ।
It comes to the generation of his fathers, They do not see the light forever.
20 जससँग सम्पत्ति छ, तर समझ छैन, त्यो जङ्गली पशुहरूजस्तै हो, जो नाश हुन्छ ।
Man in honor, who does not understand, Has been like the beasts, they have been cut off!
