1 हे परमप्रभु, सबै पुस्ताभरि नै तपाईं हाम्रो सरणस्थान हुनुभएको छ ।
A prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, through every generation, you have been “home” for us!
2 पहाडहरू बनाउनुअगि वा तपाईंले पृथ्वी र संसारलाई बनाउनुअगि, अनादिदेखि अनन्तसम्म नै तपाईं परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ ।
Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the universe, from eternity past to eternity future, you are God.
3 तपाईंले मानिसलाई धूलोमा फर्काउनुहुन्छ, र तपाईं भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “ए मानवजातिका सन्तानहरू हो, फर्क ।”
You turn people back into dust, saying, “Return to dust, human beings.”
4 किनकि तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा हजार वर्षचाहिं बितेर जाँदा हिजोको दिन र रातको एक पहरजस्तै हो ।
In your eyes, a thousand years are like a day that's already gone; like a few passing hours of the night.
5 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई बाढीले झैं बढार्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरू निदाउँछन् । बिहानमा तिनीहरू उम्रने घाँसहरूजस्तै हुन्‍छन् ।
You bring people's lives to a sudden end, like dreams that vanish. They are like grass that grows up in the morning—
6 बिहानमा त्‍यो फक्रिन्‍छ र बढ्छ । साँझमा त्‍यो ओइलाउँछ र सुक्‍छ ।
it sprouts in the morning, fresh and new, but by the evening it is withered and dead.
7 साँच्‍चै, हामी तपाईंको रिसमा नष्‍ट भएका छौं र तपाईंको क्रोधमा हामी त्रसित छौं ।
We are burned up by your anger, terrified by your fury.
8 तपाईंले हाम्रा अधर्महरू आफ्‍नो सामु, हाम्रा लुकेका पापहरू आफ्‍नो उपस्थितिमा राख्‍नुभएको छ ।
You have set out our sins before you—our secret sins are visible in the light of your presence.
9 हाम्रो जीवन तपाईंको क्रोधमा बितेर जान्छ । हाम्रो वर्षहरू सुस्‍सकेराझैं बित्छ ।
Our lives fade away under your anger, coming to an end as quickly as a sigh.
10 हाम्रा आयु सत्तरी वर्ष वा हामी स्वस्थ्य छौं भने असी वर्ष हुन्छ । तर हाम्रा उत्तम वर्षहरू पनि कष्‍ट र पीडाले पूर्ण छन् । हो, ती चाँडै बितिजन्‍छन् र हामी उडिजान्छौं ।
We live for seventy years—eighty if we have the strength. But even in the prime of life all that we have is hardship and suffering. Soon our lives are over and we're gone.
11 तपाईंको रिसको प्रचण्डता र तपाईंको भय समानको तपाईंको क्रोध कसले जान्दछ?
Who can know the power of your anger? Who understands your fury so you can be shown reverence?
12 त्यसैले हाम्रो जीवनको विचार गर्न हामीलाई सिकाउनुहोस्, ताकि हामी बुद्धिमान् भएर जिउन सकौं।
Teach us to value every one of our days so we can live wisely!
13 हे परमप्रभु, फर्कनुहोस्! यो कहिलेसम्म हुनेछ? आफ्नो सेवकमाथि दया गर्नुहोस् ।
Lord, how long will it be before you come back to us and have pity on us your servants?
14 बिहान हामीलाई तपाईंको करारको विश्‍वस्‍तताले सन्‍तुष्‍ट पार्नुहोस्, ताकि हाम्रो जीवनभरि हामी आनन्‍दित र खुसी हुन सकौं।
Show us every morning your trustworthy love so we may be happy, full of joy throughout our lives.
15 हामीलाई विपत्तिमा पार्नुभएका दिनहरू र हामीले कष्‍ट भोगेका वर्षहरू जति थिए त्यति नै हामीलाई खुसी पार्नुहोस् ।
Make us glad for as many days as you made us sad, for all the years we suffered!
16 तपाईंको सेवकले तपाईंको काम देखोस् र हाम्रा छोराछोरीले तपाईंको ऐश्‍वर्य देखून् ।
May we, your servants, see you at work for us again; may our children see your glory.
17 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको कृपा हाम्रो होस् । हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप होऊन् । वास्तवमा, हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप गरिदिनुहोस् ।
May our Lord God be pleased with us, blessing what we do, blessing what we do.
