< Psalms 17 >

1 A Prayer by David. Hear, Yahweh, my righteous plea. Give ear to my prayer that doesn’t go out of deceitful lips.
हे परमप्रभु, न्यायको निम्ति मेरो बिन्ती सुन्‍नुहोस् । मदतको निम्‍ति मेरो पुकारामा ध्यान दिनुहोस् । मेरो छलरहित ओठको मेरो प्रार्थनामा कान थाप्‍नुहोस् ।
2 Let my sentence come out of your presence. Let your eyes look on equity.
मेरो निर्दोषता तपाईंको उपस्थितिबाट आओस् । तपाईंको आँखाले जे ठिक छ सो देखून् ।
3 You have proved my heart. You have visited me in the night. You have tried me, and found nothing. I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.
तपाईंले मेरो हृदय जाँच्‍नुहुन्छ भने, राति तपाईं मकहाँ आउनुहुन्छ भने, तपाईंले मलाई शुद्ध पार्नुहुनेछ र कुनै दुष्‍ट योजनाहरू पाउनुहुनेछैन । मेरो मुखले अपराध गर्नेछैन ।
4 As for the deeds of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.
मानिसजातिका कामहरूका बारेमा, तपाईंको मुखको वचनले मैले आफैंलाई अराजकका चालबाट अलग राखेको छु ।
5 My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.
मेरा पाइलाहरू तपाईंका मार्गहरूमा दृढतासाथ अडिग छन् । मेरा पाइलाहरू चिप्‍लेका छैनन् ।
6 I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.
हे परमेश्‍वर, म तपाईंमा पुकार्छु, किनकि तपाईंले मलाई जवाफ दिनुहुन्छ । आफ्‍नो कान मतिर फर्काउनुहोस् र म बोल्दा सुन्‍नुहोस् ।
7 Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.
आफ्‍ना शत्रुहरूबाट तपाईंमा शरण लिनेहरूलाई तपाईं जसले आफ्नो दाहिने बाहुलिले बचाउनुहुन्छ, आफ्‍नो करारको विश्‍वस्‍तता अचम्‍म किसिमले देखाउनुहोस् ।
8 Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me under the shadow of your wings,
आफ्‍नो आँखाको नानीलाई झैं मेरो सुरक्षा गर्नुहोस् । आफ्‍नो पखेटाको छायामुनि मलाई लुकाउनुहोस् ।
9 from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who surround me.
मलाई आक्रमण गर्ने व्‍यक्‍तिको उपस्थितिबाट, मलाई घेरा हाल्ने मेरा शत्रुहरूबाट ।
10 They close up their callous hearts. With their mouth they speak proudly.
तिनीहरूले कसैलाई दया गर्दैनन् । तिनीहरूका मुखहरूले घमण्डसाथ बोल्छन् ।
11 They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.
तिनीहरूले मेरा पाइलाहरूलाई घेरेका छन् । मलाई प्रहार गरेर जमिनमा ढाल्‍नलाई तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना आँखा लगाउँछन् ।
12 He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
तिनीहरू शिकारको उत्कट इच्छा गर्ने सिंहझैं, लुक्‍ने ठाउँहरूमा ढुकिरहेको जवान सिंहझैं छन् ।
13 Arise, Yahweh, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
हे परमप्रभु, उठ्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गर्नुहोस् । तिनीहरूकै सामु तिनीहरूलाई पछार्नुहोस् । तपाईंको तरवारले मेरो जीवनलाई दुष्‍टबाट बचाउनुहोस् ।
14 from men by your hand, Yahweh, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life. You fill the belly of your cherished ones. Your sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.
हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको हातले मानिसहरूबाट मलाई छुटकारा दिनुहोस्, यस संसारका मानिसहरू जसको समृद्धि यस जीवनमा मात्र छ । तपाईंले आफ्ना बहुमूल्यहरूका पेट दौलतले भर्नुहुनेछ । तिनीहरूका धेरै छोराछोरी हुनेछन् र आफ्‍ना धन आफ्‍ना छोराछोरीलाई छोड्नेछन् ।
15 As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.
मेरो बारेमा, म धार्मिकतामा तपाईंको मुहार हेर्नेछु । तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा म ब्युँझँदा, म सन्तुष्‍ट हुनेछु ।
