కీర్తనల~ గ్రంథము 89
1 ౧ ఎజ్రా వంశం వాడైన ఏతాను దైవ ధ్యానం. యెహోవా కృపాకార్యాలను నేను కలకాలం గానం చేస్తాను. రాబోయే తరాలకు నీ నమ్మకత్వాన్ని ప్రకటిస్తాను.
I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known your faithfulness to all generations.
2 ౨ నేను అంటున్నాను, నిబంధన విశ్వసనీయత శాశ్వతంగా స్థాపించావు. నీ సత్యం పరలోకంలో శాశ్వతంగా స్థిరపరచావు.
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: your faithfulness shall you establish in the very heavens.
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
Your seed will I establish for ever, and build up your throne to all generations. (Selah)
5 ౫ యెహోవా, ఆకాశాలు నీ అద్భుతాలను ప్రస్తుతిస్తాయి, పవిత్రుల సమావేశంలో నీ విశ్వసనీయతకు స్తుతులు కలుగుతున్నాయి.
And the heavens shall praise your wonders, O LORD: your faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?
God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto you? or to your faithfulness round about you?
9 ౯ ఉప్పొంగే సముద్రాన్ని నువ్వు అదుపులో ఉంచుతావు, అలలు ఉవ్వెత్తుగా లేస్తే నువ్వు వాటిని అణచివేస్తావు.
You rule the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, you still them.
10 ౧౦ చచ్చిన దానితో సమానంగా నువ్వు రాహాబును నలిపేశావు. నీ బాహుబలంతో నీ శత్రువులను చెదరగొట్టి వేశావు.
You have broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; you have scattered your enemies with your strong arm.
The heavens are yours, the earth also is yours: as for the world and the fullness thereof, you have founded them.
12 ౧౨ ఉత్తర దక్షిణ దిక్కులను నువ్వే సృష్టించావు. తాబోరు హెర్మోనులు నీ నామాన్నిబట్టి ఆనందిస్తున్నాయి.
The north and the south you have created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in your name.
You have a mighty arm: strong is your hand, and high is your right hand.
Justice and judgment are the habitation of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face.
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of your countenance.
In your name shall they rejoice all the day: and in your righteousness shall they be exalted.
For you are the glory of their strength: and in your favour our horn shall be exalted.
For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 ౧౯ ఒకప్పుడు నువ్వు దర్శనంలో నీ భక్తులతో మాట్లాడావు. నువ్విలా అన్నావు, నేను ఒక శూరుడికి కిరీటం పెట్టాను. ప్రజల్లోనుంచి ఎన్నుకుని అతణ్ణి హెచ్చించాను.
Then you spoke in vision to your holy one, and said, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
He shall cry unto me, You are my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
Nevertheless my loving kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. (Selah)
But you have cast off and abhorred, you have been angry with your anointed.
You have made void the covenant of your servant: you have profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
You have broken down all his hedges; you have brought his strong holds to ruin.
All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
You have set up the right hand of his adversaries; you have made all his enemies to rejoice.
You have also turned the edge of his sword, and have not made him to stand in the battle.
You have made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
The days of his youth have you shortened: you have covered him with shame. (Selah)
How long, LORD? will you hide yourself for ever? shall your wrath burn like fire?
Remember how short my time is: wherefore have you made all men in vain?
48 ౪౮ చావకుండా బతికేవాడెవడు? లేక మృత్యులోకంనుంచి తన జీవాన్ని తప్పించుకోగల వాడెవడు? (సెలా) (Sheol h7585)
What man is he that lives, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Lord, where are your former loving kindnesses, which you sware unto David in your truth?
50 ౫౦ ప్రభూ, నీ సేవకులకు వచ్చిన నిందను బలమైన రాజ్యాలన్నిటి నుంచి వచ్చిన అవమానాన్ని నా గుండెలో నేనెలా భరిస్తున్నానో తలచుకో.
Remember, Lord, the reproach of your servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
Wherewith your enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of your anointed.
Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
