< भजनसंग्रह 55 >
1 हे परमेश्वर, मेरो प्रार्थनामा कान थाप्नुहोस् । मेरो बिन्तीबाट आफूलाई नलुकाउनुहोस् ।
God, listen to my prayer, and do not turn away from me while I am pleading with you.
2 मलाई ध्यान दिनुहोस् र मलाई जवाफ दिनुहोस् । मेरो कष्टमा मलाई विश्रम हुँदैन ।
Listen to me, and answer me, because I am overwhelmed by [all] my troubles.
3 मेरा शत्रुहरूका आवाजको कारणले, दुष्टहरूका थिचोमिचोका कारणले । किनकि तिनीहरूले ममाथि कष्ट ल्याउँछन् र रिसमा मलाई सताउँछन् ।
My enemies cause me to be terrified; wicked people oppress me. They cause me to have great troubles; they are angry with me, and they hate me.
4 मेरो हृदय मभित्र काम्छ र मृत्युका त्रासहरू ममाथि परेका छन् ।
I am terrified, and I am very much afraid that I will die.
5 डर र कम्पन ममाथि आइपरेको छ र त्रासले मलाई व्याकुल बनाएको छ ।
I am very fearful and I tremble/shake, and I am completely terrified.
6 मैले भनें, “मसित ढुकुरका जस्ता पखेटाहरू भए त! तब म उडेर जाने र विश्रम लिने थिएँ ।
I said, “I wish that I had wings like a dove! If I had wings, I would fly away and find a place to rest.
7 हेर्नुहोस्, तब म टाढा जाने थिएँ । म उजाड-स्थानमा बस्ने थिएँ । सेला
I would fly far away and live in the desert.
8 आँधी र हुरीबाट बच्न हतार गरेर म शरणस्थाणमा जाने थिएँ ।”
I would quickly find a shelter from [my enemies] [who are like] [MET] a strong wind and rainstorm.”
9 हे परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूलाई भस्म पार्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूको भाषा खल्बल्याउनुहोस्! किनकि मैले सहरमा हिंसा र कलह देखेको छु ।
Lord, confuse my enemies, and cause their plans to fail, because I see them acting violently and causing strife in the city [of Jerusalem].
10 दिनरात तिनीहरू पर्खालहरूमा चढेर घुम्छन् । अधर्म र हानि यसको माझमा छन् ।
During [each] day and night they march around on top of its walls, committing crimes and causing trouble.
11 यसको बिचमा दुष्टता छ । थिचोमिचो र छलले यसका गल्लीहरूलाई छोड्दैनन् ।
They destroy [things] everywhere. They oppress and defraud [people] in the (marketplaces/public squares).
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 ।
If it were an enemy who was making fun of me, I could endure it. If it were someone who hates me, who despises me, I could hide from him.
13 तर यो त त्यही, म समानको मानिस, मेरो मित्र र मेरो घनिष्ठ साथी थियो ।
But it is someone who is just like me, my companion, someone who was my friend [who is doing this to me].
14 हामीले एकसाथ मीठो सङ्गति गर्थ्यौं । भीडको साथमा हामी परमेश्वरको भवनमा जान्थ्यौं ।
We previously had many good talks together; we walked around together in God’s temple.
15 तिनीहरूमाथि अचानक मृत्यु आइ लागोस् । तिनीहरू जिउँदै चिहानमा जाऊन् किनकि तिनीहरू जहाँ बस्छन् त्यहाँ तिनीहरूकै माझमा दुष्टता छ । (Sheol )
I desire/hope that my enemies will die suddenly; while they are still young, cause them to go down to the place where the dead people are. They they think evil things. (Sheol )
16 मेरो बारेमा, म परमेश्वरलाई पुकार्छु र पमरप्रभुले मलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ ।
But I [will] ask Yahweh, [my] God, to help me, and he will save me.
17 साँझ, बिहान र मध्यन्हमा म गुनासो गर्छु र विलाप गर्छु । उहाँले मेरो आवाज सुन्नुहुनेछ ।
[Each] morning and [each] noontime and [each] evening I tell him what I am concerned about, and I moan, and he hears my voice.
18 मेरो विरुद्धमा भएको युद्धबाट उहाँले मेरो जीवनलाई सुरक्षित छुट्टाउनुहुन्छ, किनकि मेरो विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्नेहरू धैरै जना थिए ।
I have [very] many enemies, but he will rescue me and bring me back safely from the battles that I fight.
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 is the one who has ruled everything forever, and he will listen to me. He will cause my enemies to be [defeated and] disgraced, because they do not change their evil behavior and they do not revere God.
20 मेरो मित्रले आफूसँग मिलापमा भएकाहरूका विरुद्धमा आफ्नो हात उठाएको छ । उसले बाँधेको करारलाई उसले आदर गरेको छैन ।
My companion, [whom I mentioned previously], betrayed his friends and broke the agreement that he made with them.
21 उसको मुखले नौनीझैं चिप्लो थियो, तर त्यसको हृदय शत्रुतापूर्ण थियो । त्यसका शब्दहरू तेलभन्दा पनि चिल्ला थिए, तापनि तिनीहरू वास्तवमा नाङ्गो तरवारहरू नै थिए ।
What he said was [easy to listen to, like] butter [is easy to swallow] [MET], but in his inner being he hated people; his words were [soothing] like [olive] oil, [but they hurt people like] sharp swords do [MET].
22 आफ्ना बोझहरू परमप्रभुमा राख र उहाँले तिमीलाई सम्हाल्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले धर्मी मानिसलाई कहिल्यै पनि डग्न दिनुहुन्न ।
Put your troubles in Yahweh’s hands, and he will take care of you; he will never allow righteous [people] to experience disasters.
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 ।
God, you will cause murderers [MTY] and liars to die before they have lived half as long as they expect to live; but [as for me], I will trust in you.
