యిర్మీయా 17
1 ౧ యూదా పాపం వజ్రపు కొన ఉన్న ఇనుప కలంతో రాసి ఉంది. అది వారి హృదయాలు అనే పలకల మీద, మీ బలిపీఠాల కొమ్ముల మీద చెక్కి ఉంది.
൧“യെഹൂദയുടെ പാപം നാരായംകൊണ്ടും വജ്രമുനകൊണ്ടും എഴുതിവച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു; അത് അവരുടെ ഹൃദയത്തിന്റെ പലകയിലും നിങ്ങളുടെ യാഗപീഠത്തിന്റെ കൊമ്പുകളിലും കൊത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നു.
2 ౨ వారి ప్రజలకు ఎత్తయిన కొండల మీదున్న తమ బలిపీఠాలూ పచ్చని చెట్ల కిందున్న అషేరా దేవతా స్థంభాలూ గుర్తే.
൨ഉയർന്ന കുന്നുകളിൽ പച്ചമരങ്ങൾക്കരികിലുള്ള അവരുടെ യാഗപീഠങ്ങളെയും അശേരാപ്രതിഷ്ഠകളെയും അവരുടെ മക്കൾ ഓർക്കുന്നുവല്ലോ.
3 ౩ సరిహద్దుల్లోని పర్వతాల మీదున్న వారి బలిపీఠాలు వారికి గుర్తే. నీ ఆస్తిని, నీ నిధులన్నిటిని దోపుడు సొమ్ముగా నేనప్పగిస్తాను. మీ పాపం మీ దేశమంతా ఉంది.
൩വയൽപ്രദേശത്തെ എന്റെ പർവ്വതമേ, നിന്റെ അതിരിനകത്ത് എല്ലായിടവും ചെയ്ത പാപംനിമിത്തം ഞാൻ നിന്റെ സമ്പത്തും സകലനിക്ഷേപങ്ങളും പൂജാഗിരികളും കവർച്ചയ്ക്ക് ഏല്പിക്കും.
4 ౪ నేను నీకిచ్చిన స్వాస్థ్యాన్ని నువ్వు పోగొట్టుకుంటావు. మీరు నా కోపాగ్ని రగులబెట్టారు. అది ఎప్పటికీ మండుతూ ఉంటుంది. నీవెరుగని దేశంలో నీ శత్రువులకు నువ్వు బానిసవవుతావు.
൪ഞാൻ നിനക്ക് തന്ന അവകാശം നീ വിട്ടുപോകേണ്ടിവരും; നീ അറിയാത്ത ദേശത്ത് ഞാൻ നിന്നെ നിന്റെ ശത്രുക്കളെ സേവിക്കുമാറാക്കും; നിങ്ങൾ എന്റെ കോപത്തിൽ ഒരു തീ ജ്വലിപ്പിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു; അത് എന്നേക്കും കത്തിക്കൊണ്ടിരിക്കും”.
5 ౫ యెహోవా ఇలా సెలవిస్తున్నాడు “మనుషులను నమ్ముకునేవాడు శాపగ్రస్తుడు. శరీరులను తనకు బలంగా చేసుకుని తన హృదయాన్ని యెహోవా మీదనుంచి తొలగించుకునేవాడు శాపగ్రస్తుడు.
൫യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “മനുഷ്യനിൽ ആശ്രയിച്ച് ജഡത്തെ തന്റെ ഭുജമാക്കി ഹൃദയംകൊണ്ട് യഹോവയെ വിട്ടുമാറുന്ന മനുഷ്യൻ ശപിക്കപ്പെട്ടവൻ.
6 ౬ వాడు ఎడారిలోని పొదలాగా ఉంటాడు. వాడికి ఏ మేలూ కనబడదు. వాడు ఎడారిలో రాళ్ళ మధ్య, చవిటి భూమిలో నిర్జన ప్రాంతంలో నివసిస్తాడు.
൬അവൻ മരുഭൂമിയിലെ ചൂരച്ചെടിപോലെയാകും; നന്മ വരുമ്പോൾ അത് കാണാതെ മരുഭൂമിയിലെ വരണ്ട പ്രദേശങ്ങളിലും ജനവാസം ഇല്ലാത്ത ഉപ്പുനിലത്തിലും പാർക്കും.
൭യഹോവയിൽ ആശ്രയിക്കുകയും യഹോവ തന്നെ ആശ്രയമായിരിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന മനുഷ്യൻ ഭാഗ്യവാൻ.
8 ౮ వాడు నీళ్ళ ఊట దగ్గర చెట్టులాగా ఉంటాడు. దాని వేళ్ళు చుట్టుపక్కలా వ్యాపిస్తాయి. ఎండ వచ్చినా దానికి చలనం ఉండదు. దాని ఆకులు పచ్చగా ఉంటాయి. కరువు కాలాల్లో కంగారు పడదు. కాపు మానదు.
൮അവൻ വെള്ളത്തിനരികിൽ നട്ടിരിക്കുന്നതും ആറ്റരികിൽ വേരൂന്നിയിരിക്കുന്നതുമായ വൃക്ഷംപോലെയാകും; ഉഷ്ണം തട്ടുമ്പോൾ അത് പേടിക്കുകയില്ല; അതിന്റെ ഇല പച്ചയായിരിക്കും; വരൾച്ചയുള്ള കാലത്തും വാട്ടം തട്ടാതെ ഫലം കായിച്ചുകൊണ്ടിരിക്കും.
൯ഹൃദയം എല്ലാറ്റിനെക്കാളും കപടവും ദുഷ്ടതയുമുള്ളത്; അത് ആരാഞ്ഞറിയുന്നവൻ ആര്?
10 ౧౦ నేను యెహోవాను. హృదయాన్ని పరిశోధిస్తాను. మనసును పరీక్షిస్తాను. ప్రతి ఒక్కరికీ వారి ప్రవర్తన ప్రకారం వారి పనులకు తగ్గట్టుగా నేనిస్తాను.
൧൦യഹോവയായ ഞാൻ ഹൃദയത്തെ ശോധനചെയ്ത് അന്തരംഗങ്ങളെ പരീക്ഷിച്ച് ഓരോരുത്തന് അവനവന്റെ നടപ്പിനും പ്രവൃത്തിയുടെ ഫലത്തിനും തക്കവണ്ണം കൊടുക്കുന്നു.
11 ౧౧ కౌజుపిట్ట తాను పెట్టని గుడ్లను పొదుగుతుంది. ఎవడైనా అక్రమంగా ఆస్తి సంపాదించుకోగలడు. అయితే తన ఉచ్ఛదశలో ఆ ఆస్తి వాణ్ణి వదిలేస్తుంది. చివరికి వాడు తెలివితక్కువవాడని తేలుతుంది.”
൧൧ന്യായമായിട്ടല്ലാതെ ധനം സമ്പാദിക്കുന്നവൻ, താൻ ഇടാത്ത മുട്ടയ്ക്ക് പൊരുന്നയിരിക്കുന്ന തിത്തിരിപ്പക്ഷിയെപ്പോലെയാകുന്നു; അവന്റെ ആയുസ്സിന്റെ മദ്ധ്യത്തിൽ അത് അവനെ വിട്ടുപോകും: ഒടുവിൽ അവൻ ഒരു ഭോഷനായിരിക്കും.
൧൨ആദിമുതൽ ഉന്നതമായി, മഹത്വമുള്ള സിംഹാസനമാകുന്നു ഞങ്ങളുടെ വിശുദ്ധമന്ദിരം.
13 ౧౩ యెహోవాయే ఇశ్రాయేలుకు ఆశాభావం. నిన్ను విడిచిపెట్టే వాళ్ళంతా సిగ్గుపాలవుతారు. దేశంలో నీనుంచి దూరమైన వాళ్ళతో సంబంధం తెగిపోతుంది. ఎందుకంటే వాళ్ళు యెహోవా అనే జీవజలాల ఊటను వదిలేశారు.
൧൩യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ പ്രത്യാശയായ യഹോവേ, അങ്ങയെ ഉപേക്ഷിക്കുന്ന ഏവരും ലജ്ജിച്ചുപോകും. “എന്നെ വിട്ടുപോകുന്നവരെ മണ്ണിൽ എഴുതിവയ്ക്കും; അവർ ജീവജലത്തിന്റെ ഉറവയായ യഹോവയെ ഉപേക്ഷിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞുവല്ലോ”.
14 ౧౪ యెహోవా, నన్ను బాగు చెయ్యి. నేను బాగుపడతాను! నన్ను కాపాడు. నేను క్షేమంగా ఉంటాను. నువ్వే నా స్తుతి పాట.
൧൪യഹോവേ, എന്നെ സൗഖ്യമാക്കണമേ, എന്നാൽ എനിക്ക് സൗഖ്യം വരും; എന്നെ രക്ഷിക്കണമേ, എന്നാൽ ഞാൻ രക്ഷപെടും; അവിടുന്ന് എന്റെ പുകഴ്ചയല്ലയോ.
൧൫അവർ എന്നോട്: ‘യഹോവയുടെ വചനം എവിടെ? അത് വരട്ടെ’ എന്നു പറയുന്നു.
16 ౧౬ నేను నిన్ను అనుసరిస్తూ కాపరిగా ఉండడం మానలేదు. విపత్తుదినం కోసం నేను ఎదురు చూడలేదు. నా నోట నుంచి వచ్చిన మాటలు నీకు తెలుసు. అవి నీ దగ్గరనుంచే వచ్చాయి.
൧൬ഞാനോ ഒരു ഇടയനായി അങ്ങയെ സേവിക്കുവാൻ മടിച്ചില്ല; ദുർദ്ദിനം ഞാൻ ആഗ്രഹിച്ചതുമില്ല എന്നു അവിടുന്ന് അറിയുന്നു; എന്റെ അധരങ്ങൾ ഉച്ചരിച്ചത് തിരുമുമ്പിൽ ഇരിക്കുന്നു.
൧൭അങ്ങ് എനിക്ക് ഭീതിവിഷയമാകരുതേ; അനർത്ഥദിവസത്തിൽ എന്റെ ശരണം അവിടുന്നല്ലയോ.
18 ౧౮ నన్ను తరిమేవాళ్ళు సిగ్గుపడాలి, కానీ నన్ను సిగ్గుపడనివ్వొద్దు. నన్ను దిగులు పడనివ్వక వాళ్ళను దిగులు పడనివ్వు. వాళ్ళ మీదికి ఆపద రోజులు రప్పించు. రెట్టింపు నాశనం వాళ్ళ మీదికి రప్పించు.
൧൮എന്നെ ഉപദ്രവിക്കുന്നവർ ലജ്ജിച്ചുപോകട്ടെ; ഞാൻ ലജ്ജിച്ചുപോകരുതേ; അവർ ഭ്രമിച്ചുപോകട്ടെ; ഞാൻ ഭ്രമിച്ചുപോകരുതേ; അവർക്ക് അനർത്ഥദിവസം വരുത്തണമേ; ഇരട്ടി വിനാശം വരുത്തി അവരെ തകർക്കണമേ”.
19 ౧౯ యెహోవా నాతో ఇలా చెప్పాడు. “నువ్వు వెళ్లి యూదా రాజులు వచ్చిపోయే కోట గుమ్మంలో, ఆ తర్వాత యెరూషలేము ద్వారాలన్నిటిలో నిలబడు.
൧൯യഹോവ എന്നോട് ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്തു: “നീ ചെന്ന്, യെഹൂദാരാജാക്കന്മാർ അകത്ത് വരുകയും പുറത്തു പോകുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന ജനത്തിന്റെ വാതില്‍ക്കലും യെരൂശലേമിന്റെ എല്ലാവാതില്ക്കലും നിന്നുകൊണ്ട് അവരോടു പറയുക:
20 ౨౦ వారితో ఇలా చెప్పు, యూదా రాజులారా! యూదా ప్రజలారా! యెరూషలేము నివాసులారా! ఈ ద్వారాలగుండా ప్రవేశించే మీరంతా యెహోవా మాట వినండి.
൨൦ഈ വാതിലുകളിൽകൂടി അകത്ത് കടക്കുന്ന യെഹൂദാരാജാക്കന്മാരും എല്ലാ യെഹൂദന്മാരും യെരൂശലേമിലെ സർവ്വനിവാസികളും ആയുള്ളവരേ, യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാട് കേൾക്കുവിൻ!
21 ౨౧ యెహోవా చెప్పేదేమిటంటే, మీరు జాగ్రత్తగా ఉండి విశ్రాంతి దినాన బరువులు మోయవద్దు. యెరూషలేము ద్వారాలగుండా వాటిని తీసుకు రావద్దు.
൨൧യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “സൂക്ഷിച്ചുകൊള്ളുവിൻ; ശബ്ബത്തുനാളിൽ യാതൊരു ചുമടും ചുമന്ന് യെരൂശലേമിന്റെ വാതിലുകളിൽകൂടി അകത്ത് കൊണ്ടുവരരുത്.
22 ౨౨ విశ్రాంతి దినాన మీ ఇళ్ళలోనుంచి బరువులు మోసుకుపోవద్దు. మరి ఏ పనీ చేయవద్దు. నేను మీ పూర్వీకులకు ఆజ్ఞాపించినట్టు విశ్రాంతి దినాన్ని పవిత్ర దినంగా ఆచరించండి.
൨൨നിങ്ങളുടെ വീടുകളിൽനിന്ന് യാതൊരു ചുമടും ശബ്ബത്തുനാളിൽ പുറത്തു കൊണ്ടുപോകാതെയും, യാതൊരുവേലയും ചെയ്യാതെയും, നിങ്ങളുടെ പൂര്‍വ്വ പിതാക്കന്മാരോട് ഞാൻ കല്പിച്ചതുപോലെ ശബ്ബത്തുനാൾ വിശുദ്ധീകരിക്കുവിൻ.
൨൩എന്നാൽ അവർ അനുസരിച്ചില്ല, ചെവി ചായിച്ചതുമില്ല; കേട്ടനുസരിക്കുകയോ ബുദ്ധ്യുപദേശം കൈക്കൊള്ളുകയോ ചെയ്യാതെ അവർ ശാഠ്യം കാണിച്ചു.
24 ౨౪ యెహోవా ఇలా చెప్పాడు. “మీరు నామాట జాగ్రత్తగా విని, విశ్రాంతి దినాన మరే పనీ చేయక దాన్ని పవిత్ర దినంగా ఆచరించండి. విశ్రాంతి దినాన ఈ పట్టణపు ద్వారాల గుండా బరువులు తీసుకు రాకండి.
൨൪നിങ്ങളോ ശബ്ബത്തുനാളിൽ ഈ നഗരത്തിന്റെ വാതിലുകളിൽകൂടി യാതൊരു ചുമടും കൊണ്ടുവരാതെയും ശബ്ബത്തുനാളിൽ യാതൊരുവേലയും ചെയ്യാതെയും അതിനെ വിശുദ്ധീകരിക്കേണ്ടതിന് എന്റെ വാക്കു ജാഗ്രതയോടെ കേട്ടനുസരിക്കുമെങ്കിൽ,
25 ౨౫ అప్పుడు దావీదు సింహాసనమెక్కే రాజులూ అధిపతులూ ఈ నగర ద్వారాలగుండా ప్రవేశిస్తారు. రథాల మీదా గుర్రాల మీదా ఎక్కి తిరిగే రాజులూ అధిపతులూ యూదావారూ యెరూషలేము నివాసులూ వస్తారు. ఈ పట్టణం ఎప్పటికీ నిలిచి ఉంటుంది.
൨൫ദാവീദിന്റെ സിംഹാസനത്തിൽ ഇരിക്കുന്നവരും രഥങ്ങളിലും കുതിരപ്പുറത്തും കയറുന്നവരുമായ രാജാക്കന്മാരും രാജകുമാരന്മാരും അവരുടെ പ്രഭുക്കന്മാരായ യെഹൂദാപുരുഷന്മാരും യെരൂശലേം നിവാസികളും ഈ നഗരത്തിന്റെ വാതിലുകളിൽകൂടി കടക്കുകയും ഈ നഗരം എന്നേക്കും നിലനില്‍ക്കുകയും ചെയ്യും” എന്ന് യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാട്.
26 ౨౬ ప్రజలు దహనబలులనూ బలులనూ నైవేద్యాలనూ ధూపద్రవ్యాలనూ స్తుతియాగ ద్రవ్యాలనూ నా మందిరానికి తెస్తారు. వాళ్ళు యూదా పట్టణాల్లో నుంచి, యెరూషలేము ప్రాంతాల్లో నుంచి, బెన్యామీను దేశంలో నుంచి, మైదాన ప్రాంతంలో నుంచి, కొండసీమ నుంచి, దక్షిణ ప్రదేశం నుంచి వస్తారు.
൨൬യെഹൂദാപട്ടണങ്ങളിൽനിന്നും യെരൂശലേമിനു ചുറ്റും ഉള്ള പ്രദേശങ്ങളിൽനിന്നും ബെന്യാമീൻദേശത്തുനിന്നും താണപ്രദേശങ്ങളിൽനിന്നും മലനാടുകളിൽനിന്നും തെക്കേ ദിക്കിൽനിന്നും അവർ ഹോമയാഗങ്ങളും ഹനനയാഗങ്ങളും ഭോജനയാഗങ്ങളും കുന്തുരുക്കവും കൊണ്ടുവരും; യഹോവയുടെ ആലയത്തിൽ അവർ സ്തോത്രയാഗവും അർപ്പിക്കും.
27 ౨౭ అయితే మీరు విశ్రాంతి దినాన్ని పవిత్రంగా ఆచరించి, ఆ దినాన బరువులు మోస్తూ యెరూషలేము ద్వారాల గుండా ప్రవేశించకూడదని నేను చెప్పిన మాట వినకపోతే నేను దాని ద్వారాల్లో మంట పెడతాను. అది రాజ భవనాలను కాల్చివేస్తుంది. దాన్ని ఆర్పడం ఎవరి తరమూ కాదు.”
൨൭“എന്നാൽ ശബ്ബത്തുനാൾ വിശുദ്ധീകരിക്കുവാനും ശബ്ബത്തുനാളിൽ യെരൂശലേമിന്റെ വാതിലുകളിൽകൂടി ചുമട് ചുമന്നുകൊണ്ടുപോകാതെ ഇരിക്കുവാനും നിങ്ങൾ എന്റെ വാക്കു കേട്ടനുസരിക്കുകയില്ലെങ്കിൽ ഞാൻ അതിന്റെ വാതിലുകളിൽ തീ കൊളുത്തും; അത് കെട്ടുപോകാതെ യെരൂശലേമിലെ അരമനകളെ ദഹിപ്പിക്കും”.
