< भजनसंग्रह 53 >
1 मूर्खले आफ्नो मनमा भन्छ, “ईश्वर छँदैछैन ।” तिनीहरू भ्रष्ट छन् र घृणित अधर्म गरेका छन् । असल गर्ने कोही पनि छैन ।
[Only] foolish people say to themselves, “There is no God!” People who say that are corrupt; they commit terrible sins; there is not one of them who does what is good/right.
2 कसैले बुझ्छन्, वा परमेश्वरलाई खोज्छन् कि भनी हेर्न उहाँले मानवजातिका सन्तानहरूलाई स्वर्गबाट हेर्नुहुन्छ ।
God looks down from heaven and sees humans; he looks to see if anyone is [very] wise, with the result that he seeks [to know] God.
3 तिनीहरू सबै जना बरालिएका छन् । तिनीहरू एकसाथ भ्रष्ट भएका छन् । असल गर्ने कोही पनि छैन, एक जना पनि छैन ।
[But] they are all morally corrupt; no one does what is good/right.
4 के अधर्म गर्नेहरूको कुनै समझ नै छैन, जसले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई रोटी खाएझैं खान्छन् र तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरलाई पुकारा गर्दैनन्?
Will all these evil people never learn [what God will do to them]? They act violently toward Yahweh’s people while eating the food that he provides, and they never pray to Yahweh.
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 ।
But [some day] those people will become terrified, like they have never been terrified before, because God will cause those who are separated from him to die, and he will [disrespect them by] scattering their bones. They have rejected God, so he will cause them to be [defeated and] completely disgraced.
6 इस्राएलको उद्धार सियोनबाट आएको भए त हुन्थ्यो! जब परमेश्वरले आफ्ना मानसिहरूलाई निर्वासनबाट फिर्ता ल्याउनुहुन्छ, तब याकूब आनन्दित र इस्राएल खुसी हुनेछ ।
I wish/desire that someone from Jerusalem [MTY] would come and rescue the Israeli [people]! God, when you bless your people again, [all] the Israeli [people, all the descendants of] Jacob, will rejoice.
