1 निश्‍चय नै परमेश्‍वर इस्राएलको निम्‍ति, शुद्ध हृदय हुनेहरूका निम्‍ति भला हुनुहुन्छ ।
God truly is good to [us] Israeli people, to those who totally want to do all that God desires.
2 तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा खुट्टाहरू झण्डै चिप्ले । मेरा खुट्टाहरू मेरो मुनिबाट झण्डै चिप्‍ले ।
As for me, I almost [stopped trusting in God]; [it was as though] my feet slipped and I stumbled [MET],
3 किनभने जब मैले दुष्‍टहरूका फलिफाप देखें, तब मैले अहङ्कारीहरूको डाह गरें ।
because I envied those who proudly [said that they did not need God], and I saw that they prospered [even though] they were wicked.
4 किनकि मृत्युसम्म नै तिनीहरूलाई कुनै पीडा नै हुँछैन, तर तिनीहरू बलिया र स्वस्थ्य हुन्‍छन् ।
Those people do not have any pains; they are [always] strong and healthy.
5 अरू मानिसहरूका बोझहरूबाट तिनीहरू मुक्‍त छन् । अरू मानिसहरूलाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई कष्‍ट हुँदैन ।
They do not have the troubles/difficulties that other people have; they do not have problems like others do.
6 तिनीहरूका घाँटीमा सिक्रीझैं तिनीहरू घमण्डले सजिछन् । वस्‍त्रले ढाकेझैं तिनीहरूलाई हिंसाले ढाक्‍नेछ ।
So they are proud, and their being proud is [like] a necklace [that they show to others], and they show off their violent actions like people show off their beautiful robes.
7 यस्ता अन्धोपनबाट नै पाप आउँछ । तिनीहरूका हृदयहरूबाट दुष्‍ट विचारहरू जान्छन् ।
From their inner beings they (pour out/do) evil deeds, and they are always thinking about more evil things to do.
8 तिनीहरू दुष्‍टतापूर्वक गिल्ला गर्छन् र बोल्छन् । आफ्‍नो अहङ्कारमा तिनीहरूले अत्यचारको धम्की दिन्छन् ।
They scoff at [other people], and they talk about doing evil things to them; they are proud while they plan to oppress others.
9 आफ्नो मुखले तिनीहरू स्वर्गको विरुद्धमा बोल्‍छन् र तिनीहरूका जिब्रोहरूले पृथ्वीको अधिकार गर्छन् ।
They say evil things about [God who is in] heaven [MTY], and they talk boastfully/proudly about things [that they have done] here on the earth.
10 यसकारण तिनका मानिसहरू तिनीहरूतिर फर्कन्छन् र प्रशस्‍त पानी बगाइन्छ ।
The result is that people listen to what they say and praise them and do not think that they have done anything that is wrong.
11 तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “परमेश्‍वरले कसरी जान्‍नुहुन्छ? के सर्वोच्‍चसँग ज्ञान छ र?”
Wicked people say [to themselves], “God will certainly not [RHQ] know [what we have done]; [people say that] he is greater than any other god, but he does not know [everything].”
12 हेर्नुहोस्ः यी मानिसहरू दुष्‍टहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू निश्‍चिन्त छन् र झन्-झन् धनी हुँदैछन् ।
That is what wicked people are like; they never worry about anything, and they are always becoming richer.
13 निश्‍चय नै मैले व्यार्थमा मेरो हृदयलाई सुरक्षित राखेको छु र निर्दोषतामा मेरा हातहरू धोएको छु ।
[So, God], I think it is useless that I have [RHQ] always done what you want me to, and that I have not sinned.
14 किनकि म दिनभरि कष्‍टमा परेको छु र हरेक बिहान ताड्ना पाएको छु ।
All day long I have problems, and every morning you punish me.
15 “म यी कुराहरू भन्‍नेछु,” भनी मैले भनेको भए, तपाईंका छोराछोरीका यो पुस्तालाई मैले धोका दिनेथिएँ ।
If I had said the things that the wicked people say, I would have been sinning against your people.
16 मैले यी कुराहरू बुझ्‍ने कोसिस गरे तापनि, मेरो निम्ति यो धेरै कठिन थियो ।
And when I tried to think about all this, it was very difficult for me [to understand it].
17 तब म परमेश्‍वरको पवित्रस्थानभित्र गएँ र तिनीहरूका अन्‍तिम अवस्‍थालाई बुझें ।
But when I went to your temple, [you spoke to me], and I understood what will happen to the wicked people [after they die].
18 निश्‍चय नै तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चिप्‍लो ठाउँहरूमा राख्‍नुहुन्‍छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई सर्वनाश लानुहुन्‍छ ।
[Now I know that] you will surely put them in slippery places, and they will fall down and die.
19 तिनीहरू कसरी क्षणभरमा नै उजाडस्‍थान बने! तिनीहरूको अन्‍त भयो र भयानक त्रासहरूले समाप्‍त पारिए ।
They will be destroyed instantly; they will die in terrible ways.
20 कोही ब्युँझँदा, ती सपनामा भएजस्तो हुन्‍छन् । हे परमप्रभु, जब तपाई खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब तपाईंले ती सपनाहरूका बारेमा केही विचार गर्नुहुन्‍न ।
They [will disappear as quickly] as a dream disappears when a person awakes in the morning; Lord, when you arise, you will (cause them to disappear/forget all about them).
21 किनकि मेरो हृदय शोकमा परेको थियो र म गहिरो चोटमा परेको थिएँ ।
When I felt sad/bitter, and brokenhearted,
22 म मूर्ख थिएँ र अन्तरदृष्‍टिको कमी थियो । तपाईंको सामु म मूर्ख पशुजस्तै थिएँ ।
I was stupid and ignorant, and I behaved like an animal toward you.
23 तापनि म सधैं तपाईंसँगै छु । तपाईंले मेरो दाहिने हात समात्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।
But I am always close to you, and you hold my hand.
24 तपाईंले मलाई आफ्‍नो सल्लाहले मार्गदर्शन गर्नुहुनेछ र पछि मलाई महिमामा ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ ।
You guide me by teaching me, and (at the end [of my life]/when I die), you will receive me and honor me.
25 स्वर्गमा तपाईंबाहेक मेरो को छ र? पृथ्‍वीमा मैले इच्‍छा गर्ने तपाईंबाहेक अरू कोही छैन ।
You are in heaven and I belong to you [RHQ], and there is nothing on this earth that I desire more than that.
26 मेरो शरीर र मेरो मुटु कमजोर हुन्छन्, तर परमेश्‍वर नै सदासर्वदा मेरो हृदयको बल हुनुहुन्छ ।
My body and my mind may become very weak, but God, you continue to enable me to be strong; I belong to you forever.
27 तपाईंदेखि टाढा हुनेहरू नष्‍ट हुनेछन् । तपाईंप्रति विश्‍वासयोग्‍य नहुनेहरूलाई तपाईंले नष्‍ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।
Those who remain far from you will be destroyed; you will get rid of those who abandon you.
28 तर मेरो बारेमा, मैले गर्नुपर्ने कुराचाहिं परमेश्‍वरको नजिक जाने हो । परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरलाई मैले आफ्‍नो शरणस्थान बनाएको छु । तपाईंका सबै कामहरू म घोषणा गर्नेछु ।
But [as for] me, it is wonderful to be near to God and to be protected by Yahweh, and to proclaim to others all that he has done [for me].
