भजनसंग्रह 53

1 मूर्खले आफ्नो मनमा भन्छ, “ईश्‍वर छँदैछैन ।” तिनीहरू भ्रष्‍ट छन् र घृणित अधर्म गरेका छन् । असल गर्ने कोही पनि छैन ।

To the chief music-maker; put to Mahalath. Maschil. Of David. The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

2 कसैले बुझ्‍छन्, वा परमेश्‍वरलाई खोज्छन् कि भनी हेर्न उहाँले मानवजातिका सन्तानहरूलाई स्वर्गबाट हेर्नुहुन्छ ।

God was looking down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who had wisdom, searching after God.

3 तिनीहरू सबै जना बरालिएका छन् । तिनीहरू एकसाथ भ्रष्‍ट भएका छन् । असल गर्ने कोही पनि छैन, एक जना पनि छैन ।

Every one of them has gone back; they are unclean: there is not one who does good, no, not one.

4 के अधर्म गर्नेहरूको कुनै समझ नै छैन, जसले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई रोटी खाएझैं खान्छन् र तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरलाई पुकारा गर्दैनन्?

Have the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food, as they would take bread; they make no prayer to God.

5 डराउनुपर्ने कुनै कारण नभए तापनि तिनीहरू भयङ्कर डरमा हुन्‍छन् । किनकि तिमीहरू विरुद्ध पाल टाँग्‍नेहरूका हाडहरू परमेश्‍वरले छरपस्ट पार्नुहुनेछ । यस्ता मानिसहरू लाजमा पर्नेछन्, किनभने परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई इन्कार गर्नुभएको छ ।

They were in great fear, where there was no cause for fear: for the bones of those who make war on you have been broken by God; you have put them to shame, because God has no desire for them.

6 इस्राएलको उद्धार सियोनबाट आएको भए त हुन्थ्यो! जब परमेश्‍वरले आफ्ना मानसिहरूलाई निर्वासनबाट फिर्ता ल्याउनुहुन्‍छ, तब याकूब आनन्‍दित र इस्राएल खुसी हुनेछ ।

May the salvation of Israel come out of Zion! When the fate of his people is changed by God, Jacob will have joy, and Israel will be glad.
