Lamentations 5

1 Remember, O Lord, what has befallen us. Consider and look kindly upon our disgrace.

हे परमप्रभु, हामीमाथि जे भएको छ, सो सम्झनुहोस् । हाम्रो अपमान हेर्नुहोस्, र विचार गर्नुहोस् ।

2 Our inheritance has been turned over to foreigners; our houses to outsiders.

हाम्रो उत्तराधिकार पराईहरू र हाम्रा घरहरू विदेशीहरूलाई दिइए ।

3 We have become orphans without a father; our mothers are like widows.

हामी अनाथ, पितृहीन भएका छौँ, र हाम्रा आमाहरू विधवाजस्ता छन् ।

4 We paid for our drinking water. We acquired our wood for a price.

हामीले पिउने पानीको लागि र हाम्रै दाउरा किन्‍न हामीले चाँदीको दाम तिर्नुपर्छ ।

5 We were dragged by our necks. Being weary, no rest was given to us.

हामीलाई पछ्याउनेहरू हाम्रो छेउमा छन् । हामी थाकेका छौँ, र हामीलाई चैन छैन ।

6 We have given our hand to Egypt and to the Assyrians, so that we may be satisfied with bread.

पर्याप्‍त खानाको लागि हामीले आफैलाई मिश्र र अश्शूरमा सुम्पिदिएका छौँ ।

7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not. And we have carried their iniquities.

हाम्रा पिता-पुर्खाहरूलेपाप गरे, र अब तिनीहरू छैनन्, र हामीले तिनीहरूका अधर्मको फल भोग्दछौँ ।

8 Servants have become rulers over us. There was no one to redeem us from their hand.

कमाराहरूले हामीमाथि शासन गर्छन्, र हामीलाई तिनीहरूको हातबाट छुटकारा दिने कोही छैन ।

9 We obtained our bread at the risk of our lives, before the face of the sword, in the wilderness.

उजाड-स्थानमा भएको तरवारको कारण हाम्रा जीवन जोखिममा पारेर मात्रै हामी रोटी पाउँछौँ ।

10 Our skin was burned, as if by an oven, before the face of the tempest of the famine.

भोकको रापले गर्दा हाम्रो छाला चुलोझैँ तातिएको छ ।

11 They humiliated the women in Zion and the virgins in the cities of Judah.

सियोनमा स्‍त्रीहरू र यहूदाका सहरहरूमा कन्याहरू बलत्कार गरिएका छन् ।

12 The leaders were suspended by their hand. They were not ashamed before the faces of the elders.

राजकुमारहरू तिनीहरूका आफ्नै हातद्वारा झुण्ड्याइएका छन्, र धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई कुनै आदर देखाइएको छैन ।

13 They have sexually abused the adolescents, and the children were corrupted in the wood.

युवाहरू जाँतोमा अन्‍न पिँध्‍न बाध्य पारिएका छन्, र ठिटाहरू दाउराको भारीले थिचिएर लडबडाउँदै हिँड्छन् ।

14 The elders have ceased from the gates, the youths from the choir of the psalms.

धर्म-गुरुहरूले सहरको मूल ढोका छोडेका छन्, र युवाहरूले तिनीहरूको सङ्गीत छोडिदिएका छन् ।

15 The gladness of our heart has failed, our singing has been turned into mourning.

हाम्रो हृदयको आनन्द हटेको छ, र हाम्रो नाच शोकमा परिणत भएको छ ।

16 The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned.

मुकुट हाम्रो शिरबाट खसेको छ । हामीलाई धिक्‍कार छ! किनकि हामीले पाप गरेका छौँ ।

17 Because of this, our heart became gloomy; for this reason, our eyes have been darkened:

हाम्रो यो हृदय दुर्बल भएको छ, र यिनै कुराको कारण हाम्रो आँखा धमिलिएका छन् ।

18 because of mount Zion, because it was ruined. Foxes have wandered upon it.

सियोन पर्वत उजाड छ, जहाँ स्यालहरू घुमिहिँड्छन् ।

19 But you, O Lord, shall remain for eternity, your throne from generation to generation.

तर हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले सदासर्वदा शासन गर्नुहुन्छ, र तपाईं पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म आफ्नो सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुहुने छ ।

20 Why would you forget us forever? Why would you forsake us for a long time?

तपाईंले हामीलाई किन सदाको निम्ति बिर्सनुहुन्छ? तपाईंले हामीलाई यति धेरै दिनसम्म किन त्याग्‍नुहुन्छ?

21 Convert us, O Lord, to you, and we shall be converted. Renew our days, as from the beginning.

हे परमप्रभु, हामीलाई पुनर्स्थापना गर्नुहोस्, र हामी पुनर्स्थापित हुने छौँ ।

22 But you have utterly rejected us; you are vehemently angry against us.

तपाईंले हामीलाई बिलकुलै इन्कार गर्नुभएको छैन, र सम्झनै नसक्‍ने गरी तपाईं हामीसित रिसाउनुभएको छैन भने धेरै पहिले भएजस्तै हाम्रा दिन नवीकरण गरिदिनुहोस् ।
