1 ए शासकहरू हो, के तिमीहरू धर्मिकतामा बोल्छौ? ए मानिसहरू, के तिमीहरू ठिक किसमले न्याय गर्छौ?
[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David.] Do you rulers indeed speak righteousness? Do you judge blamelessly, you descendants of Adam?
2 गर्दैनौ, तिमीहरू आफ्नो हृदयमा दुष्‍टता गर्छौ । तिमीहरू आफ्नै हातले देशभरि हिंसा फैलाउँछौ ।
No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 दुष्‍टहरू गर्भमा हुँदा पनि तिनीहरू पथभ्रष्‍ट हुन्छन् । जन्मेदेखि नै तिनीहरू झुट बोलेर पथभ्रष्‍ट हुन्छन् ।
The wicked go astray from the womb. They are wayward as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
4 तिनीहरूका विष सर्पको विषजस्तै छ । तिनीहरू बहिरा गोमनजस्तै छन् जसले यसका कानहरू बन्द गर्छ,
Their poison is like the poison of a serpent; like a deaf viper that stops its ear,
5 त्यसले सपेराको आवाज सुन्दैन, तिनीहरू जत्ति नै निपुण भए पनि पर्वाह छैन ।
which doesn't listen to the voice of charmers, no matter how skillful the charmer may be.
6 हे परमेश्‍वर, तिनीहरूका दाँतहरू भाँचिदिनुहोस् । हे परमप्रभु, जवान सिंहहरूका बङ्गराहरू झारिदिनुहोस् ।
Break their teeth, God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, LORD.
7 पानी बगेर गएजस्तै तिनीहरू बिलेर जाऊन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना काँडाहरू हान्दा, तिनका चुच्‍चो नभएजस्तै ती होऊन् ।
Let them vanish as water that flows away. When they draw the bow, let their arrows be made blunt.
8 तिनीहरू शंखेकीराजस्तै होऊन् र बिलि जाऊन् र तिनीहरू एउटी स्‍त्रीको तुहेको बालकजस्तै होऊन् जसले कहिल्यै सूर्यको उज्यालो देख्दैनन् ।
Let them be like a snail which melts and passes away, like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.
9 तिम्रा भाँडाहरूले काँढाको आगोको राप थाहा पाउनअगि नै हरिया काँढाहरू र जलिरहेका काँढाहरूजस्तै त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई भुमरीसँगै उठाइ लानेछ ।
Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns, he will sweep away the green and the burning alike.
10 धर्मीले परमेश्‍वरको बदला देख्दा, त्यो आनन्‍दित हुनेछ । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना खुट्टाहरू दुष्‍टहरूका रगतमा धुनेछन्,
The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked;
11 ताकि मानिसहरूले भन्‍नेछन्, “साँच्‍चै, धर्मी व्‍यक्‍तिको निम्ति इनाम छ । साँच्‍चै, परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ जसले पृथ्वीको न्याय गर्नुहुन्‍छ ।”
so that men shall say, "Most certainly there is a reward for the righteous. Most certainly there is a God who judges the earth."
