Adhyāya 1
hakalyah ke putra nahemayah ke vachana. beesaven varsha ke kisalave nam maheene me, jab maain shooshan nam rajagaddh men rahata tha,
2 tab hananee nam mera aek bhai aur yahooda se aae huae kai aek purush aae tab maain ne un se un bache huae yahoodiyon ke vishay jo bandhauai se choott gaae the, aur yarooshalem ke vishy men poochha.
3 unhon ne mujh se kaha, jo bache huae log bandhauai se choottkar us praant men rahate haai, ve badee durdasha men pade haai, aur unakee ninda hotee haai kyonki yarooshalem kee shaharapanah toottee hui, aur usake faattk jale huae haain.
4 ye baten sunate hee maain baaittkar rone laga aur kitane din tak vilap karata aur svarga ke parameshvar ke sammukh upavas karata aur yah kahakar praarthna karata raha.
5 he svarga ke parameshvar yahova, he mahan aur bhyayogy ishvar ! too jo apane praem rakhnevale aur agyaa mananevale ke vishy apanee vacha palata aur un par karuna karata haai
6 too kan lagaae aur ankhen khole rah, ki jo praarthna maain tera das is samay tere das israaaeliyon ke liye din rat karata rahata hoo, use too sun le. maain israaaeliyon ke papon ko jo ham logon ne tere viruddh kiae haai, man leta hoo. maain aur mere pita ke gharane donon ne pap kiya haai.
7 ham ne tere samhane bahut burai kee haai, aur jo agyaaae, vidhaiyan aur niyam too ne apane das moosa ko diae the, unako ham ne naheen mana.
8 us vachan kee sudhai le, jo too ne apane das moosa se kaha tha, ki yadi tum log vishvasaghaat karo, to maain tum ko desh desh ke logon men titar bitar karoonga.
9 parantu yadi tum meree or firo, aur meree agyaaaen mano, aur un par chalo, to chahe tum men se nikale huae log akash kee chhor men bhee ho, taubhee maain unako vahan se ikattha karake us sthan men pahunchaunga, jise maain ne apane nam ke nivas ke liye chun liya haai.
10 ab ve tere das aur teree praja ke log haain jinako too ne apanee badee samarth aur balavant hath ke dara chhuda liya haai.
11 he prabhu binatee yah haai, ki too apane das kee praarthna par, aur apane un dason kee praarthna par, jo tere nam ka bhy manana chahate haai, kan laga, aur aj apane das ka kam sufal kar, aur us purush ko us par dayalu kara. maain to raja ka piya tha.
