1 ए शासकहरू हो, के तिमीहरू धर्मिकतामा बोल्छौ? ए मानिसहरू, के तिमीहरू ठिक किसमले न्याय गर्छौ?
For the leader. Al tashheth. Of David. A michtam. Do you speak what is right, you gods? With equity judge you your people?
2 गर्दैनौ, तिमीहरू आफ्नो हृदयमा दुष्‍टता गर्छौ । तिमीहरू आफ्नै हातले देशभरि हिंसा फैलाउँछौ ।
In the land you practise iniquity – all of you; violence do you dispense with your hands.
3 दुष्‍टहरू गर्भमा हुँदा पनि तिनीहरू पथभ्रष्‍ट हुन्छन् । जन्मेदेखि नै तिनीहरू झुट बोलेर पथभ्रष्‍ट हुन्छन् ।
The wicked go astray from the womb liars take the wrong path from their birth.
4 तिनीहरूका विष सर्पको विषजस्तै छ । तिनीहरू बहिरा गोमनजस्तै छन् जसले यसका कानहरू बन्द गर्छ,
Venom have they like the venom of snakes, they are like the deaf adder that stops her ears,
5 त्यसले सपेराको आवाज सुन्दैन, तिनीहरू जत्ति नै निपुण भए पनि पर्वाह छैन ।
and refuses to listen to the voice of the charmer, or binder of spells, no matter how cunning.
6 हे परमेश्‍वर, तिनीहरूका दाँतहरू भाँचिदिनुहोस् । हे परमप्रभु, जवान सिंहहरूका बङ्गराहरू झारिदिनुहोस् ।
O God, break to pieces the teeth in their mouth, tear 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 ।
May they melt away like running water! Like tender grass, cut down may they be!
8 तिनीहरू शंखेकीराजस्तै होऊन् र बिलि जाऊन् र तिनीहरू एउटी स्‍त्रीको तुहेको बालकजस्तै होऊन् जसले कहिल्यै सूर्यको उज्यालो देख्दैनन् ।
Like the snail that dissolves on its crawling path, like the birth untimely which sees not the sunlight.
9 तिम्रा भाँडाहरूले काँढाको आगोको राप थाहा पाउनअगि नै हरिया काँढाहरू र जलिरहेका काँढाहरूजस्तै त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई भुमरीसँगै उठाइ लानेछ ।
Faster than a thorn-fire heats your pots, he will come with his tempest and sweep them away.
10 धर्मीले परमेश्‍वरको बदला देख्दा, त्यो आनन्‍दित हुनेछ । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना खुट्टाहरू दुष्‍टहरूका रगतमा धुनेछन्,
The sight of such vengeance will gladden the righteous; their feet they will wash in the blood of the wicked.
11 ताकि मानिसहरूले भन्‍नेछन्, “साँच्‍चै, धर्मी व्‍यक्‍तिको निम्ति इनाम छ । साँच्‍चै, परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ जसले पृथ्वीको न्याय गर्नुहुन्‍छ ।”
People will say, ‘Yes, the just are rewarded: yes, on the earth is a God who is Judge.’
