भजनसंग्रह 12

1 हे परमप्रभु, मदत गर्नुहोस्, किनकि धर्मीहरू लोप भएका छन् । विश्‍वासीचाहिं हराएको छ ।

To the chief Musician. Upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David. Save, Jehovah, for the godly man is gone; for the faithful have failed from among the children of men.

2 हरेकले आफ्ना छिमेकीलाई फोस्रा कुरा भन्छ । हरेकले चाप्लुसी ओठहरू र झुट मनले बोल्छन् ।

They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour: [with] flattering lip, with a double heart, do they speak.

3 हे परमप्रभु, चाप्लुसी सबै ओठ, ठुला कुरा गर्ने हरेक जिब्रोलाई काट्नुहोस् ।

Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things,

4 यसो भन्‍ने यिनीहरू नै हुन्, “हाम्रो जिब्रोले नै हामीले जित्छौं । जब हाम्रा ओठहरू बोल्‍छन्, तब हामीमाथि को मालिक हुन सक्छ र?”

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who [is] lord over us?

5 परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, “गरीबको विरुद्धमा हिंसा, दरिद्रको सुस्केराले गर्दा म उठ्‍नेछु, म सुरक्षा प्रदान गर्नेछु जसको इच्‍छा तिनीहरू गर्छन् ।”

Because of the oppression of the afflicted, because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith Jehovah, I will set [him] in safety, at whom they puff.

6 परमप्रभुका वचनहरू पृथ्वीको भट्टिमा सातपल्‍ट शुद्ध पारिएका चाँदीझैं शुद्ध हुन्‍छन् ।

The words of Jehovah are pure words, silver tried in the furnace of earth, purified seven times.

7 तपाईं परमप्रभु हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई सुरक्षित राख्‍नुहुन्छ । तपाईंले धर्मी मानिसहरूलाई यो दुष्‍ट पुस्ताबाट र सदासर्वदा सुरक्षा दिनुहुन्छ ।

Thou, Jehovah, wilt keep them, thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.

8 मानवजातिका छोराछोरीका माझमा खराब कुराको प्रशंसा हुँदा दुष्‍टहरू चारैतिर हिंड्‍डुल गर्छन् ।

The wicked walk about on every side, when vileness is exalted among the children of men.
