Psalms 73
1 A Psalm by Asaph. Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.
निश्चय नै परमेश्वर इस्राएलको निम्ति, शुद्ध हृदय हुनेहरूका निम्ति भला हुनुहुन्छ ।
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone. My steps had nearly slipped.
तर मेरो बारेमा, मेरा खुट्टाहरू झण्डै चिप्ले । मेरा खुट्टाहरू मेरो मुनिबाट झण्डै चिप्ले ।
3 For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
किनभने जब मैले दुष्टहरूका फलिफाप देखें, तब मैले अहङ्कारीहरूको डाह गरें ।
4 For there are no struggles in their death, but their strength is firm.
किनकि मृत्युसम्म नै तिनीहरूलाई कुनै पीडा नै हुँछैन, तर तिनीहरू बलिया र स्वस्थ्य हुन्छन् ।
5 They are free from burdens of men, neither are they plagued like other men.
अरू मानिसहरूका बोझहरूबाट तिनीहरू मुक्त छन् । अरू मानिसहरूलाई झैं तिनीहरूलाई कष्ट हुँदैन ।
6 Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck. Violence covers them like a garment.
तिनीहरूका घाँटीमा सिक्रीझैं तिनीहरू घमण्डले सजिछन् । वस्त्रले ढाकेझैं तिनीहरूलाई हिंसाले ढाक्नेछ ।
7 Their eyes bulge with fat. Their minds pass the limits of conceit.
यस्ता अन्धोपनबाट नै पाप आउँछ । तिनीहरूका हृदयहरूबाट दुष्ट विचारहरू जान्छन् ।
8 They scoff and speak with malice. In arrogance, they threaten oppression.
तिनीहरू दुष्टतापूर्वक गिल्ला गर्छन् र बोल्छन् । आफ्नो अहङ्कारमा तिनीहरूले अत्यचारको धम्की दिन्छन् ।
9 They have set their mouth in the heavens. Their tongue walks through the earth.
आफ्नो मुखले तिनीहरू स्वर्गको विरुद्धमा बोल्छन् र तिनीहरूका जिब्रोहरूले पृथ्वीको अधिकार गर्छन् ।
10 Therefore their people return to them, and they drink up waters of abundance.
यसकारण तिनका मानिसहरू तिनीहरूतिर फर्कन्छन् र प्रशस्त पानी बगाइन्छ ।
11 They say, “How does God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “परमेश्वरले कसरी जान्नुहुन्छ? के सर्वोच्चसँग ज्ञान छ र?”
12 Behold, these are the wicked. Being always at ease, they increase in riches.
हेर्नुहोस्ः यी मानिसहरू दुष्टहरू हुन् । तिनीहरू निश्चिन्त छन् र झन्-झन् धनी हुँदैछन् ।
13 Surely I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocence,
निश्चय नै मैले व्यार्थमा मेरो हृदयलाई सुरक्षित राखेको छु र निर्दोषतामा मेरा हातहरू धोएको छु ।
14 For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.
किनकि म दिनभरि कष्टमा परेको छु र हरेक बिहान ताड्ना पाएको छु ।
15 If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.
“म यी कुराहरू भन्नेछु,” भनी मैले भनेको भए, तपाईंका छोराछोरीका यो पुस्तालाई मैले धोका दिनेथिएँ ।
16 When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—
मैले यी कुराहरू बुझ्ने कोसिस गरे तापनि, मेरो निम्ति यो धेरै कठिन थियो ।
17 until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.
तब म परमेश्वरको पवित्रस्थानभित्र गएँ र तिनीहरूका अन्तिम अवस्थालाई बुझें ।
18 Surely you set them in slippery places. You throw them down to destruction.
निश्चय नै तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई चिप्लो ठाउँहरूमा राख्नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई सर्वनाश लानुहुन्छ ।
19 How they are suddenly destroyed! They are completely swept away with terrors.
तिनीहरू कसरी क्षणभरमा नै उजाडस्थान बने! तिनीहरूको अन्त भयो र भयानक त्रासहरूले समाप्त पारिए ।
20 As a dream when one wakes up, so, Lord, when you awake, you will despise their fantasies.
कोही ब्युँझँदा, ती सपनामा भएजस्तो हुन्छन् । हे परमप्रभु, जब तपाई खडा हुनुहुन्छ, तब तपाईंले ती सपनाहरूका बारेमा केही विचार गर्नुहुन्न ।
21 For my soul was grieved. I was embittered in my heart.
किनकि मेरो हृदय शोकमा परेको थियो र म गहिरो चोटमा परेको थिएँ ।
22 I was so senseless and ignorant. I was a brute beast before you.
म मूर्ख थिएँ र अन्तरदृष्टिको कमी थियो । तपाईंको सामु म मूर्ख पशुजस्तै थिएँ ।
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you. You have held my right hand.
तापनि म सधैं तपाईंसँगै छु । तपाईंले मेरो दाहिने हात समात्नुहुन्छ ।
24 You will guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
तपाईंले मलाई आफ्नो सल्लाहले मार्गदर्शन गर्नुहुनेछ र पछि मलाई महिमामा ग्रहण गर्नुहुनेछ ।
25 Whom do I have in heaven? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you.
स्वर्गमा तपाईंबाहेक मेरो को छ र? पृथ्वीमा मैले इच्छा गर्ने तपाईंबाहेक अरू कोही छैन ।
26 My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
मेरो शरीर र मेरो मुटु कमजोर हुन्छन्, तर परमेश्वर नै सदासर्वदा मेरो हृदयको बल हुनुहुन्छ ।
27 For, behold, those who are far from you shall perish. You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to you.
तपाईंदेखि टाढा हुनेहरू नष्ट हुनेछन् । तपाईंप्रति विश्वासयोग्य नहुनेहरूलाई तपाईंले नष्ट पार्नुहुनेछ ।
28 But it is good for me to come close to God. I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.
तर मेरो बारेमा, मैले गर्नुपर्ने कुराचाहिं परमेश्वरको नजिक जाने हो । परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई मैले आफ्नो शरणस्थान बनाएको छु । तपाईंका सबै कामहरू म घोषणा गर्नेछु ।
