Psalm 45
1 ನನ್ನ ಹೃದಯವು ಒಂದು ದಿವ್ಯ ವಿಷಯವನ್ನು ರಚಿಸುತ್ತಿರುವದು; ಅರಸನನ್ನು ಕುರಿತು ನಾನು ಮಾಡಿದವುಗಳನ್ನು ವಿವರಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ; ನನ್ನ ನಾಲಿಗೆಯು ಬರೆಯುವವನ ಲೇಖನಿಯಂತೆ ಸಿದ್ಧವಾಗಿದೆ.
2 ನೀನು ಮನುಷ್ಯರ ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗಿಂತ ಅತಿ ಸುಂದರ ನಾಗಿದ್ದೀ; ನಿನ್ನ ತುಟಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕೃಪೆಯು ಹೊಯಿದದೆ; ಆದದರಿಂದ ದೇವರು ಎಂದೆಂದಿಗೂ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಆಶೀ ರ್ವದಿಸಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
3 ಓ ಪರಾಕ್ರಮಿಯೇ, ನಿನ್ನ ಮಹಿಮೆಯಿಂದಲೂ ಘನತೆಯಿಂದಲೂ ನಿನ್ನ ಕತ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಸೊಂಟಕ್ಕೆ ಬಿಗಿ ದುಕೋ.
4 ಸತ್ಯತೆ ಸಾತ್ವಿಕತೆ ನೀತಿಗೋಸ್ಕರವೂ ನಿನ್ನ ಘನತೆಯಿಂದ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಹೊಂದಿ ಸವಾರಿಮಾಡು; ನಿನ್ನ ಬಲಗೈ ಭಯಂಕರವಾದವುಗಳನ್ನು ನಿನಗೆ ಕಲಿಸುವದು.
5 ನಿನ್ನ ಹದವಾದ ಬಾಣಗಳು ಅರಸನ ಶತ್ರು ಗಳ ಹೃದಯದಲ್ಲಿ ನೆಟ್ಟಿವೆ; ಅವುಗಳಿಂದ ಜನರು ನಿನ್ನ ಕೆಳಗೆ ಬೀಳುತ್ತಾರೆ
6 ಓ ದೇವರೇ, ನಿನ್ನ ಸಿಂಹಾಸ ನವು ಎಂದೆಂದಿಗೂ ಇರುವದು; ನಿನ್ನ ರಾಜ್ಯದಂಡವು ನ್ಯಾಯದಂಡವಾಗಿದೆ.
7 ನೀನು ನೀತಿಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೀ; ದುಷ್ಟತ್ವವನ್ನು ಹಗೆಮಾಡುತ್ತೀ; ಆದದ ರಿಂದ ದೇವರು, ನಿನ್ನ ದೇವರು, ನಿನ್ನ ಸಂಗಡಿಗರಿಗಿಂತ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗಿ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಆನಂದ ತೈಲದಿಂದ ಅಭಿಷೇಕಿಸಿ ದ್ದಾನೆ.
8 ನಿನ್ನ ವಸ್ತ್ರಗಳೆಲ್ಲಾ ಬೋಳವು ಅಗರು ದಾಲ್ಚಿನ್ನಿ ಇವುಗಳ ಸುವಾಸನೆಯಿಂದ ಇರುತ್ತವೆ. ಇವುಗಳಿಂದ ಅವರು ದಂತದ ಅರಮನೆಗಳೊಳಗಿಂದ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಸಂತೋಷಪಡಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ.
9 ಅರಸುಗಳ ಕುಮಾರ್ತೆ ಯರು ನಿನ್ನ ಗೌರವವುಳ್ಳ ಸ್ತ್ರೀಯರಲ್ಲಿ ಇದ್ದಾರೆ; ರಾಣಿಯು ಓಫಿರ್‌ ಬಂಗಾರವನ್ನು ಧರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ನಿನ್ನ ಬಲಗಡೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದಾಳೆ.
10 ಓ ಮಗಳೇ, ಕಿವಿಗೊಟ್ಟು ಕೇಳಿ ಆಲೋಚಿಸು, ನಿನ್ನ ಸ್ವಂತ ಜನರನ್ನು ನಿನ್ನ ತಂದೆಯ ಮನೆಯನ್ನು ಮರೆತುಬಿಡು.
11 ಆಗ ಅರಸನು ನಿನ್ನ ಸೌಂದರ್ಯ ವನ್ನು ಬಹಳವಾಗಿ ಅಪೇಕ್ಷಿಸುವನು; ಆತನೇ ನಿನ್ನ ಕರ್ತನು; ಆತನನ್ನು ಆರಾಧಿಸು.
12 ತೂರಿನ ಮಗಳು ಕಾಣಿಕೆಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಇರುವಳು; ಅಂದರೆ ಪ್ರಜೆ ಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ಥಿತಿವಂತರು ನಿನ್ನ ದಯೆಯನ್ನು ಕೋರುವರು.
13 ಅರಸನ ಮಗಳು ತನ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಪೂರ್ಣ ಘನವುಳ್ಳವ ಳಾಗಿದ್ದಾಳೆ; ಅವಳ ವಸ್ತ್ರವು ಚಿನ್ನದಿಂದ ನೆಯಿದದೆ.
14 ಇವಳು ಕಸೂತಿ ವಸ್ತ್ರಗಳನ್ನುಟ್ಟು ಅರಸನ ಬಳಿಗೆ ತರಲ್ಪಡುತ್ತಾಳೆ; ಅವಳ ಹಿಂದೆ ಇರುವ ಕನ್ಯೆಯರಾದ ಅವಳ ಸಂಗಡಿಗರು ನಿನ್ನ ಬಳಿಗೆ ತರಲ್ಪಡುತ್ತಾರೆ.
15 ಸಂತೋಷದಿಂದಲೂ ಉಲ್ಲಾಸದಿಂದಲೂ ಅವರು ತರಲ್ಪಡುತ್ತಾರೆ; ಅವರು ಅರಸನ ಅರಮನೆಯೊಳಗೆ ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸುವರು.
16 ನಿನ್ನ ತಂದೆಗಳಿಗೆ ಬದಲಾಗಿ ನಿನ್ನ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಇರುವರು; ಅವರನ್ನು ಭೂಮಿಯ ಮೇಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ಪ್ರಧಾನರನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡುವಿ.
17 ತಲತಲಾಂತರಗಳ ಲ್ಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ನಿನ್ನ ಹೆಸರನ್ನು ನಾನು ಜ್ಞಾಪಕಪಡಿಸುವೆನು; ಆದದರಿಂದ ಜನರು ಯುಗಯುಗಾಂತರಗಳಿಗೂ ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಕೊಂಡಾಡುವರು.
1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves.
2 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
3 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
4 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
5 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
6 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.
7 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
8 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
9 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
10 Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
11 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
12 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
13 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
14 The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.
15 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
16 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
17 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.
18 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.
3 Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord’s glory.
5 And the sound of the cherubims’ wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
6 And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
7 And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man’s hand under their wings.
9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
10 And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.
13 As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.
14 And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 And the cherubims were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
17 When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Then the glory of the Lord departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.
19 And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also were beside them, and every one stood at the door of the east gate of the Lord’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
20 This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubims.
21 Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
