< भजनसंग्रह 55 >
1 हे परमेश्वर, मेरो प्रार्थनामा कान थाप्नुहोस् । मेरो बिन्तीबाट आफूलाई नलुकाउनुहोस् ।
“For the leader of the music. To be sung on stringed instruments. A psalm of David.” Give ear to my prayer, O God! Hide not thyself from my supplication!
2 मलाई ध्यान दिनुहोस् र मलाई जवाफ दिनुहोस् । मेरो कष्टमा मलाई विश्रम हुँदैन ।
Attend unto me, and hear me! I wander about mourning and wailing,
3 मेरा शत्रुहरूका आवाजको कारणले, दुष्टहरूका थिचोमिचोका कारणले । किनकि तिनीहरूले ममाथि कष्ट ल्याउँछन् र रिसमा मलाई सताउँछन् ।
On account of the clamors of the enemy, On account of the violence of the wicked. For they bring evil upon me, And in wrath set themselves against me.
4 मेरो हृदय मभित्र काम्छ र मृत्युका त्रासहरू ममाथि परेका छन् ।
My heart trembleth in my bosom, And the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
5 डर र कम्पन ममाथि आइपरेको छ र त्रासले मलाई व्याकुल बनाएको छ ।
Fear and trembling have seized me, And horror hath overwhelmed me.
6 मैले भनें, “मसित ढुकुरका जस्ता पखेटाहरू भए त! तब म उडेर जाने र विश्रम लिने थिएँ ।
Then I say, O that I had wings like a dove! For then would I fly away, and be at rest.
7 हेर्नुहोस्, तब म टाढा जाने थिएँ । म उजाड-स्थानमा बस्ने थिएँ । सेला
Behold, I would wander far away, And take up my abode in a wilderness. (Pause)
8 आँधी र हुरीबाट बच्न हतार गरेर म शरणस्थाणमा जाने थिएँ ।”
I would hasten away to a shelter From the rushing wind and tempest.
9 हे परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूलाई भस्म पार्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूको भाषा खल्बल्याउनुहोस्! किनकि मैले सहरमा हिंसा र कलह देखेको छु ।
Confound, O Lord! divide their counsels! For I behold violence and strife in the city.
10 दिनरात तिनीहरू पर्खालहरूमा चढेर घुम्छन् । अधर्म र हानि यसको माझमा छन् ।
Day and night do these go about its walls; In the midst of it are iniquity and mischief.
11 यसको बिचमा दुष्टता छ । थिचोमिचो र छलले यसका गल्लीहरूलाई छोड्दैनन् ।
Wickedness is in the midst of it; Oppression and fraud depart not from its streets.
12 किनकि मलाई हप्काउने शत्रु थिएन, तब म त्यो सहनेथिएँ । न त मेरो विरुद्ध उठ्ने मलाई घृणा गर्ने व्यक्ति नै थियो, तब म त्यसबाट लुक्नेथिएँ ।
It was not an enemy that reviled me, Then I could have borne it; Nor one that hated me, who rose up against me; From him I could have hid myself.
13 तर यो त त्यही, म समानको मानिस, मेरो मित्र र मेरो घनिष्ठ साथी थियो ।
But it was thou, a man my equal, My friend, and my acquaintance.
14 हामीले एकसाथ मीठो सङ्गति गर्थ्यौं । भीडको साथमा हामी परमेश्वरको भवनमा जान्थ्यौं ।
We held sweet converse together, And walked to the house of God in company.
15 तिनीहरूमाथि अचानक मृत्यु आइ लागोस् । तिनीहरू जिउँदै चिहानमा जाऊन् किनकि तिनीहरू जहाँ बस्छन् त्यहाँ तिनीहरूकै माझमा दुष्टता छ । (Sheol )
May sudden death seize upon them! May they go down to the underworld alive! For wickedness is in their dwellings, in the midst of them. (Sheol )
16 मेरो बारेमा, म परमेश्वरलाई पुकार्छु र पमरप्रभुले मलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ ।
As for me, I will call upon God, And Jehovah will save me.
17 साँझ, बिहान र मध्यन्हमा म गुनासो गर्छु र विलाप गर्छु । उहाँले मेरो आवाज सुन्नुहुनेछ ।
At evening, at morn, and at noon I mourn and sigh, And he will hear my voice.
18 मेरो विरुद्धमा भएको युद्धबाट उहाँले मेरो जीवनलाई सुरक्षित छुट्टाउनुहुन्छ, किनकि मेरो विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्नेहरू धैरै जना थिए ।
He will deliver me in peace from my conflict; For many have risen up against me.
19 परमेश्वर, जसले अनन्तदेखि राज्य गर्नुहुन्छ उहाँले तिनीहरूका कुरा सुन्नुहुनेछ र तिनीहरूको अपमान गर्नुहुनेछ । सेला तिनीहरू कहिल्यै परिवर्तन हुँदैनन् र तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको भय मान्दैनन् ।
God will hear me, and bring them down, —He that hath been judge of old. (Pause) Because they have no changes, Therefore they fear not God.
20 मेरो मित्रले आफूसँग मिलापमा भएकाहरूका विरुद्धमा आफ्नो हात उठाएको छ । उसले बाँधेको करारलाई उसले आदर गरेको छैन ।
They lift up their hands against their friend, And break their covenant with him.
21 उसको मुखले नौनीझैं चिप्लो थियो, तर त्यसको हृदय शत्रुतापूर्ण थियो । त्यसका शब्दहरू तेलभन्दा पनि चिल्ला थिए, तापनि तिनीहरू वास्तवमा नाङ्गो तरवारहरू नै थिए ।
Their speech was softer than butter, But war was in their heart; Their words were smoother than oil, Yet were they drawn swords.
22 आफ्ना बोझहरू परमप्रभुमा राख र उहाँले तिमीलाई सम्हाल्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले धर्मी मानिसलाई कहिल्यै पनि डग्न दिनुहुन्न ।
“Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to fall!”
23 तर हे परमेश्वर, तपाईंले दुष्टलाई तल विनाशको खडलमा लानुहुनेछ । रक्तपात गर्नेहरू र छली मानिसहरू अरूभन्दा आधा आयुसम्म पनि बँच्दैनन्, तर म तपाईंमा नै भरोसा गर्छु ।
Yea, thou, O God! wilt bring them down into the lowest pit! Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in thee!
