भजन संहिता 33
1 हे धर्मियों यहोवा के कारण जयजयकार करो क्योंकि धर्मी लोगों को स्तुति करनी सोहती है।
2 वीणा बजा बजाकर यहोवा का धन्यवाद करो, दस तार वाली सारंगी बजा बजाकर उसका भजन गाओ।
3 उसके लिये नया गीत गाओ, जयजयकार के साथ भली भांति बजाओ॥
4 क्योंकि यहोवा का वचन सीधा है; और उसका सब काम सच्चाई से होता है।
5 वह धर्म और न्याय से प्रीति रखता है; यहोवा की करूणा से पृथ्वी भरपूर है॥
6 आकाशमण्डल यहोवा के वचन से, और उसके सारे गण उसके मुंह ही श्वास से बने।
7 वह समुद्र का जल ढेर की नाईं इकट्ठा करता; वह गहिरे सागर को अपने भण्डार में रखता है॥
8 सारी पृथ्वी के लोग यहोवा से डरें, जगत के सब निवासी उसका भय मानें!
9 क्योंकि जब उसने कहा, तब हो गया; जब उसने आज्ञा दी, तब वास्तव में वैसा ही हो गया॥
10 यहोवा अन्य अन्य जातियों की युक्ति को व्यर्थ कर देता है; वह देश देश के लोगों की कल्पनाओं को निष्फल करता है।
11 यहोवा की युक्ति सर्वदा स्थिर रहेगी, उसके मन की कल्पनाएं पीढ़ी से पीढ़ी तक बनी रहेंगी।
12 क्या ही धन्य है वह जाति जिसका परमेश्वर यहोवा है, और वह समाज जिसे उसने अपना निज भाग होने के लिये चुन लिया हो!
13 यहोवा स्वर्ग से दृष्टि करता है, वह सब मनुष्यों को निहारता है;
14 अपने निवास के स्थान से वह पृथ्वी के सब रहने वालों को देखता है,
15 वही जो उन सभों के हृदयों को गढ़ता, और उनके सब कामों का विचार करता है।
16 कोई ऐसा राजा नहीं, जो सेना की बहुतायत के कारण बच सके; वीर अपनी बड़ी शक्ति के कारण छूट नहीं जाता।
17 बच निकलने के लिये घोड़ा व्यर्थ है, वह अपने बड़े बल के द्वारा किसी को नहीं बचा सकता है॥
18 देखो, यहोवा की दृष्टि उसके डरवैयों पर और उन पर जो उसकी करूणा की आशा रखते हैं बनी रहती है,
19 कि वह उनके प्राण को मृत्यु से बचाए, और अकाल के समय उन को जीवित रखे॥
20 हम यहोवा का आसरा देखते आए हैं; वह हमारा सहायक और हमारी ढाल ठहरा है।
21 हमारा हृदय उसके कारण आनन्दित होगा, क्योंकि हम ने उसके पवित्र नाम का भरोसा रखा है।
22 हे यहोवा जैसी तुझ पर हमारी आशा है, वैसी ही तेरी करूणा भी हम पर हो॥
1 Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
2 Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
4 For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
6 By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.
18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
