< भजनसंग्रह 90 >
1 हे परमप्रभु, सबै पुस्ताभरि नै तपाईं हाम्रो सरणस्थान हुनुभएको छ ।
Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 पहाडहरू बनाउनुअगि वा तपाईंले पृथ्वी र संसारलाई बनाउनुअगि, अनादिदेखि अनन्तसम्म नै तपाईं परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ ।
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
3 तपाईंले मानिसलाई धूलोमा फर्काउनुहुन्छ, र तपाईं भन्नुहुन्छ, “ए मानवजातिका सन्तानहरू हो, फर्क ।”
You turn man to destruction; and say, Return, you children of men.
4 किनकि तपाईंको दृष्टिमा हजार वर्षचाहिं बितेर जाँदा हिजोको दिन र रातको एक पहरजस्तै हो ।
For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई बाढीले झैं बढार्नुहुन्छ र तिनीहरू निदाउँछन् । बिहानमा तिनीहरू उम्रने घाँसहरूजस्तै हुन्छन् ।
You carry them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which grows up.
6 बिहानमा त्यो फक्रिन्छ र बढ्छ । साँझमा त्यो ओइलाउँछ र सुक्छ ।
In the morning it flourishes, and grows up; in the evening it is cut down, and wither.
7 साँच्चै, हामी तपाईंको रिसमा नष्ट भएका छौं र तपाईंको क्रोधमा हामी त्रसित छौं ।
For we are consumed by your anger, and by your wrath are we troubled.
8 तपाईंले हाम्रा अधर्महरू आफ्नो सामु, हाम्रा लुकेका पापहरू आफ्नो उपस्थितिमा राख्नुभएको छ ।
You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your countenance.
9 हाम्रो जीवन तपाईंको क्रोधमा बितेर जान्छ । हाम्रो वर्षहरू सुस्सकेराझैं बित्छ ।
For all our days are passed away in your wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
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 ।
The days of our years are three score years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 तपाईंको रिसको प्रचण्डता र तपाईंको भय समानको तपाईंको क्रोध कसले जान्दछ?
Who knows the power of your anger? even according to your fear, so is your wrath.
12 त्यसैले हाम्रो जीवनको विचार गर्न हामीलाई सिकाउनुहोस्, ताकि हामी बुद्धिमान् भएर जिउन सकौं।
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
13 हे परमप्रभु, फर्कनुहोस्! यो कहिलेसम्म हुनेछ? आफ्नो सेवकमाथि दया गर्नुहोस् ।
Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent you concerning your servants.
14 बिहान हामीलाई तपाईंको करारको विश्वस्तताले सन्तुष्ट पार्नुहोस्, ताकि हाम्रो जीवनभरि हामी आनन्दित र खुसी हुन सकौं।
O satisfy us early with your mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 हामीलाई विपत्तिमा पार्नुभएका दिनहरू र हामीले कष्ट भोगेका वर्षहरू जति थिए त्यति नै हामीलाई खुसी पार्नुहोस् ।
Make us glad according to the days wherein you have afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 तपाईंको सेवकले तपाईंको काम देखोस् र हाम्रा छोराछोरीले तपाईंको ऐश्वर्य देखून् ।
Let your work appear to your servants, and your glory to their children.
17 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको कृपा हाम्रो होस् । हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप होऊन् । वास्तवमा, हाम्रा हातका कामहरू फलिफाप गरिदिनुहोस् ।
And let the beauty of the LORD our God be on us: and establish you the work of our hands on us; yes, the work of our hands establish you it.
