Psalms 73

1 A Psalm for Asaph. How good is God to Israel, to the upright in heart!

निश्‍चय नै परमेश्‍वर इस्राएलको निम्‍ति, शुद्ध हृदय हुनेहरूका निम्‍ति भला हुनुहुन्छ ।

2 But my feet were almost overthrown; my goings very nearly slipped.

तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा खुट्टाहरू झण्डै चिप्ले । मेरा खुट्टाहरू मेरो मुनिबाट झण्डै चिप्‍ले ।

3 For I was jealous of the transgressors, beholding the tranquility of sinners.

किनभने जब मैले दुष्‍टहरूका फलिफाप देखें, तब मैले अहङ्कारीहरूको डाह गरें ।

4 For there is no sign of reluctance in their death: and [they have] firmness under their affliction.

किनकि मृत्युसम्म नै तिनीहरूलाई कुनै पीडा नै हुँछैन, तर तिनीहरू बलिया र स्वस्थ्य हुन्‍छन् ।

5 They are not in the troubles of [other] men; and they shall not be scourged with [other] men.

अरू मानिसहरूका बोझहरूबाट तिनीहरू मुक्‍त छन् । अरू मानिसहरूलाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई कष्‍ट हुँदैन ।

6 Therefore pride has possessed them; they have clothed themselves with their injustice and ungodliness.

तिनीहरूका घाँटीमा सिक्रीझैं तिनीहरू घमण्डले सजिछन् । वस्‍त्रले ढाकेझैं तिनीहरूलाई हिंसाले ढाक्‍नेछ ।

7 Their injustice shall go forth as out of fatness: they have fulfilled their intention.

यस्ता अन्धोपनबाट नै पाप आउँछ । तिनीहरूका हृदयहरूबाट दुष्‍ट विचारहरू जान्छन् ।

8 They have taken counsel and spoken in wickedness: they have uttered unrighteousness loftily.

तिनीहरू दुष्‍टतापूर्वक गिल्ला गर्छन् र बोल्छन् । आफ्‍नो अहङ्कारमा तिनीहरूले अत्यचारको धम्की दिन्छन् ।

9 They have set their mouth against heaven, and their tongue has gone through upon the earth.

आफ्नो मुखले तिनीहरू स्वर्गको विरुद्धमा बोल्‍छन् र तिनीहरूका जिब्रोहरूले पृथ्वीको अधिकार गर्छन् ।

10 Therefore shall my people return hither: and full days shall be found with them.

यसकारण तिनका मानिसहरू तिनीहरूतिर फर्कन्छन् र प्रशस्‍त पानी बगाइन्छ ।

11 And they said, How does God know? and is there knowledge in the Most High?

तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “परमेश्‍वरले कसरी जान्‍नुहुन्छ? के सर्वोच्‍चसँग ज्ञान छ र?”

12 Behold, these [are] the sinners, and they that prosper always: they have possessed wealth.

हेर्नुहोस्ः यी मानिसहरू दुष्‍टहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू निश्‍चिन्त छन् र झन्-झन् धनी हुँदैछन् ।

13 And I said, Verily in vain have I justified my heart, and washed my hands in innocency.

निश्‍चय नै मैले व्यार्थमा मेरो हृदयलाई सुरक्षित राखेको छु र निर्दोषतामा मेरा हातहरू धोएको छु ।

14 For I was plagued all the day, and my reproof [was] every morning.

किनकि म दिनभरि कष्‍टमा परेको छु र हरेक बिहान ताड्ना पाएको छु ।

15 If I said, I will speak thus; behold, I [should] have broken covenant with the generation of your children.

“म यी कुराहरू भन्‍नेछु,” भनी मैले भनेको भए, तपाईंका छोराछोरीका यो पुस्तालाई मैले धोका दिनेथिएँ ।

16 And I undertook to understand this, [but] it is too hard for me,

मैले यी कुराहरू बुझ्‍ने कोसिस गरे तापनि, मेरो निम्ति यो धेरै कठिन थियो ।

17 until I go into the sanctuary of God; [and so] understand the latter end.

तब म परमेश्‍वरको पवित्रस्थानभित्र गएँ र तिनीहरूका अन्‍तिम अवस्‍थालाई बुझें ।

18 Surely you have appointed [judgments] to them because of their crafty dealings: you have cast them down when they were lifted up.

निश्‍चय नै तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चिप्‍लो ठाउँहरूमा राख्‍नुहुन्‍छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई सर्वनाश लानुहुन्‍छ ।

19 How have they become desolate! suddenly they have failed: they have perished because of their iniquity.

तिनीहरू कसरी क्षणभरमा नै उजाडस्‍थान बने! तिनीहरूको अन्‍त भयो र भयानक त्रासहरूले समाप्‍त पारिए ।

20 As the dream of one awakening, O Lord, in your city you will despise their image.

कोही ब्युँझँदा, ती सपनामा भएजस्तो हुन्‍छन् । हे परमप्रभु, जब तपाई खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब तपाईंले ती सपनाहरूका बारेमा केही विचार गर्नुहुन्‍न ।

21 For my heart has rejoiced, and my reins have been gladdened.

किनकि मेरो हृदय शोकमा परेको थियो र म गहिरो चोटमा परेको थिएँ ।

22 But I [was] vile and knew not: I became brutish before you.

म मूर्ख थिएँ र अन्तरदृष्‍टिको कमी थियो । तपाईंको सामु म मूर्ख पशुजस्तै थिएँ ।

23 Yet I am continually with you: you have holden my right hand.

तापनि म सधैं तपाईंसँगै छु । तपाईंले मेरो दाहिने हात समात्‍नुहुन्‍छ ।

24 You have guided me by your counsel, and you have taken me to yourself with glory.

तपाईंले मलाई आफ्‍नो सल्लाहले मार्गदर्शन गर्नुहुनेछ र पछि मलाई महिमामा ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ ।

25 For what have I in heaven [but you]? and what have I desired upon the earth beside you?

स्वर्गमा तपाईंबाहेक मेरो को छ र? पृथ्‍वीमा मैले इच्‍छा गर्ने तपाईंबाहेक अरू कोही छैन ।

26 My heart and my flesh have failed: [but] God [is the strength] of my heart, and God is my portion for ever.

मेरो शरीर र मेरो मुटु कमजोर हुन्छन्, तर परमेश्‍वर नै सदासर्वदा मेरो हृदयको बल हुनुहुन्छ ।

27 For, behold, they that remove themselves far from you shall perish: you have destroyed every one that goes a whoring from you.

तपाईंदेखि टाढा हुनेहरू नष्‍ट हुनेछन् । तपाईंप्रति विश्‍वासयोग्‍य नहुनेहरूलाई तपाईंले नष्‍ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।

28 But it is good for me to cleave close to God, to put my trust in the Lord; that I may proclaim all your praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.

तर मेरो बारेमा, मैले गर्नुपर्ने कुराचाहिं परमेश्‍वरको नजिक जाने हो । परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरलाई मैले आफ्‍नो शरणस्थान बनाएको छु । तपाईंका सबै कामहरू म घोषणा गर्नेछु ।
