भजनसंग्रह 74
1 हे परमेश्वर, तपाईंले हामीलाई किन सदाको निम्ति इन्कार गर्नुभएको छ? तपाईंको क्रोध किन तपाईंका खर्कका भेडाहरूका विरुद्धमा दन्किन्छ?
Maschil. Of Asaph. Of God, why have you put us away from you for ever? why is the fire of your wrath smoking against the sheep who are your care?
2 आफ्ना मानिसहरू जसलाई तपाईंले प्राचीन समयमा किन्नुभयो, तपाईंको आफ्नै उत्तराधिकार हुनलाई उद्धार गर्नुभएका कुलहरू र तपाईं वास गर्नुहुने सियोन पर्वतलाई सम्झनुहोस् ।
Keep in mind your band of worshippers, for whom you gave payment in the days which are past, whom you took for yourself as the people of your heritage; even this mountain of Zion, which has been your resting-place.
3 आउनुहोस्, शत्रुले पवित्रस्थानमा गरेका सम्पूर्ण भग्नावशेष, सारा सर्वनाशलाई हेर्नुहोस् ।
Go up and see the unending destruction; all the evil which your haters have done in the holy place;
4 तपाईंको तोकिएको ठाउँको बिचमा तपाईंका वैरीहरू गर्जन्छन् । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना युद्धका झन्डाहरू खडा गर्छन् ।
Sending out their voices like lions among your worshippers; they have put up their signs to be seen.
5 बञ्चरोले घना जङ्गल काटेझैं तिनीहरूले काटेर लगे ।
They are cutting down, like a man whose blade is lifted up against the thick trees.
6 तिनीहरूले बट्टाहरूलाई फुटाएका छन् र टुक्र-टुक्रा पारेका छन् । तिनीहरूले बन्चरो र घनहरूले फुटाए ।
Your doors are broken down with hammers and iron blades.
7 तपाईंको पवित्रस्थान तिनीहरूले आगोले जलाए । तपाईं वास गर्नुहुने ठाउँलाई तिनीहरूले भूइँमा ढालेर अपवित्र पारे ।
They have put on fire your holy place; they have made the place of your name unclean, pulling it down to the earth.
8 तिनीहरूले आफ्ना हृदयहरूमा भने, “तिनीहरू सबैलाई हामी नाश गर्नेछौं ।” देशमा भएका तपाईंको आराधना हुने ठाउँहरू सबै तिनीहरूले जलाए ।
They have said in their hearts, Let us put an end to them all together; they have given over to the fire all God's places of worship in the land.
9 हामी अब कुनै चिन्हहरू देख्दैनौं । अब कोही अगमवक्ता छैनन् र यो कहिलेसम्म रहन्छ भनी हाम्रा बिचमा हुने कसैले पनि जान्दैन ।
We do not see our signs: there is no longer any prophet, or anyone among us to say how long.
10 हे परमेश्वर, शत्रुहरूले कहिलेसम्म हामीलाई अपमान गर्छन्? के शत्रुहरूले सदासर्वदा तपाईंको निन्दा गर्नेछन्?
O God, how long will those who are against us say cruel things? will the hater go on looking down on your name for ever?
11 आफ्नो बाहुली, तपाईंको दाहिने हात तपाईंले किन रोक्नुहुन्छ? आफ्नो दाहिने हात आफ्नो खल्तीबाट झिक्नुहोस् र तिनीहरूलाई नाश पार्नुहोस् ।
Why are you keeping back your hand, and covering your right hand in your robe?
12 तापनि पृथ्वीमा उद्धार ल्याउनुभएर परमेश्वर प्राचीन समयदेखि नै मेरो राजा हुनुभएको छ ।
For from the past God is my King, working salvation in the earth.
13 तपाईंले समुद्रलाई आफ्नो शक्तिले विभाजन गर्नुभयो । तपाईंले समुद्री भयानक जन्तुहरूका शिरहरू तोड्नुभयो ।
The sea was parted in two by your strength; the heads of the great sea-beasts were broken.
14 तपाईंले लिव्यातन्को शिर कुच्याउनुभयो । तपाईंले त्यसलाई उजास्थानमा बस्नेहरूलाई खुवाउनुभयो ।
The heads of the great snake were crushed by you; you gave them as food to the fishes of the sea.
15 तपाईंले मूलहरू र खोलाहरूका मुहान खोल्नुभयो । तपाईंले बगिरहेका नदीहरूलाई सुकाउनुभयो ।
You made valleys for fountains and springs; you made the ever-flowing rivers dry.
16 दिन तपाईंको हो र रात पनि तपाईंकै हो । तपाईंले सूर्य र चनद्रमालाई आफ्नो ठाउँमा राख्नुभयो ।
The day is yours and the night is yours: you made the light and the sun.
17 तपाईंले पृथ्वीको सबै सिमाना तोक्नुभएको छ । तपाईंले हिउँद र ग्रीष्म बनाउनुभएको छ ।
By you all the limits of the earth were fixed; you have made summer and winter.
18 हे परमप्रभु, शत्रुहरूले तपाईंलाई कसरी अपमान गरे सो सम्झनुहोस् । अनि मूर्ख मानिसहरूले तपाईंको नाउँको निन्दा गरेका छन् ।
Keep this in mind, O Lord, that your haters have said cruel things, and that your name has been looked down on by a people of evil behaviour.
19 तपाईंको ढुकुरको जीवन जङ्गली पशुलाई नदिनुहोस् । थिचोमिचोमा परेका तपाईंका मानिसहरूका जीवन सधैं नबिर्सनुहोस् ।
O give not the soul of your dove to the hawk; let not the life of the poor go out of your memory for ever.
20 आफ्नो करार सम्झनुहोस्, किनकि देशका अन्धकार क्षेत्रहरू हिंसाले भरिएको ठाउँहरू हुन् ।
Keep in mind your undertaking; for the dark places of the earth are full of pride and cruel acts.
21 थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरू लाजमा परेर फर्किने नतुल्याउनुहोस् । गरीब र थिचोमिचोमा परेकाहरूले तपाईंको नाउँको स्तुति गरून् ।
O let not the crushed be turned back in shame; let the low man and the poor give praise to your name.
22 हे परमेश्वर, उठ्नुहोस् । तपाईंको आफ्नो इज्जतको रक्षा गर्नुहोस् । मूर्खहरूले दिनभरि कसरी तपाईंको अपमान गर्छन् सम्झनुहोस् ।
Up! O God, be the judge of your cause; keep in mind the bitter things which the man of evil behaviour says against you every day.
23 तपाईंका वैरीहरूका आवाजहरू वा तपाईंलाई निरन्तर अनादर गर्नेहरूका कोलाहल नबिर्सनुहोस् ।
Keep in mind the voice of your haters; the outcry of those who come against you goes up every day.
