സങ്കീർത്തനങ്ങൾ 132
1 ആരോഹണഗീതം. യഹോവേ, ദാവീദിനെയും അദ്ദേഹം അനുഭവിച്ച എല്ലാ കഷ്ടതകളും ഓർക്കണമേ.
౧యాత్రల కీర్తన యెహోవా, దావీదుకు దాపురించిన బాధలన్నిటినీ అతడి తరపున జ్ఞాపకం చేసుకో.
2 അദ്ദേഹം യഹോവയോട് ഒരു ശപഥംചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്നു, യാക്കോബിന്റെ ശക്തനായവനോട് ഒരു നേർച്ച നേർന്നിരിക്കുന്നു:
౨అతడు ఏ విధంగా యెహోవాకు ప్రమాణం చేశాడో, పరాక్రమశాలి అయిన యాకోబు దేవుడికి ఏమి వాగ్దానం చేశాడో మనసుకు తెచ్చుకో.
3 “യഹോവയ്ക്കു ഞാൻ ഒരു നിവാസസ്ഥാനം ഒരുക്കുംവരെ, യാക്കോബിന്റെ ശക്തനായവന് ഒരു വാസസ്ഥാനം കണ്ടെത്തുന്നതുവരെ,
౩నేను యెహోవా కోసం ఒక స్థలం చూసే దాకా,
4 ഞാൻ എന്റെ ഭവനത്തിൽ പ്രവേശിക്കുകയോ എന്റെ കിടക്കയിൽ വിശ്രമിക്കുകയോ ചെയ്യുകയില്ല;
౪యాకోబు పరాక్రమశాలికి ఒక నివాస స్థలం సమకూర్చేదాకా నా ఇంట్లో అడుగు పెట్టను.
5 ഞാൻ എന്റെ കണ്ണുകൾക്ക് ഉറക്കം കൊടുക്കുകയോ കൺപോളകളെ മയങ്ങാൻ അനുവദിക്കുകയോ ചെയ്യുകയില്ല.”
౫నా కళ్ళకు నిద్ర, నా కనురెప్పలకు విశ్రాంతి రానివ్వను.
6 എഫ്രാത്തയിൽ നാം അതേപ്പറ്റി കേട്ടു, യായീരിന്റെ വയലുകളിൽ നാം അതിനെ കണ്ടെത്തി:
౬ఆ స్థలం ఎఫ్రాతాలో ఉన్నట్టు విన్నాం. యాయరు పొలంలో అది దొరికింది.
7 “നമുക്കു തിരുനിവാസത്തിലേക്കു പോകാം അവിടത്തെ പാദപീഠത്തിൽ നമുക്ക് ആരാധിക്കാം,
౭యెహోవా మందిరానికి వెళ్దాం పదండి. రండి, ఆయన పాదపీఠం ఎదుట సాష్టాంగపడదాం.
8 ‘യഹോവേ, എഴുന്നേൽക്കണമേ! അവിടത്തെ വിശ്രമസ്ഥാനത്തേക്ക് എഴുന്നള്ളണമേ, അങ്ങും അങ്ങയുടെ ശക്തിയുടെ പ്രതീകമായ ഉടമ്പടിയുടെ പേടകവും.
౮యెహోవా, లే. నీ విశ్రాంతి స్థలానికి రా.
9 അങ്ങയുടെ പുരോഹിതവൃന്ദം നീതിയിൻവസ്ത്രം അണിയട്ടെ; അങ്ങയുടെ വിശ്വസ്തർ ആനന്ദഗാനം ആലപിക്കട്ടെ.’”
౯నీ యాజకులు న్యాయాన్ని ధరించుకుంటారు గాక. నీ భక్తులు జయజయ ధ్వానాలు చేస్తారు గాక.
10 അങ്ങയുടെ ദാസനായ ദാവീദിനെയോർത്ത്, അവിടത്തെ അഭിഷിക്തനെ തിരസ്കരിക്കരുതേ.
౧౦నీ సేవకుడైన దావీదు మొహం చూసి నీ అభిషిక్తునికి విముఖత చూపించకు.
11 യഹോവ ദാവീദിനോടൊരു ശപഥംചെയ്തു, അവിടന്ന് അതിൽനിന്നൊരിക്കലും പിന്തിരിയുകയില്ല: “നിന്റെ പിൻതലമുറക്കാരിൽ ഒരുവനെ ഞാൻ നിന്റെ സിംഹാസനത്തിൽ അവരോധിക്കും.
౧౧నీ సంతానాన్ని నీ సింహాసనానికి శాశ్వత వారసులుగా చేస్తాను అనీ, దావీదు పట్ల నమ్మకంగా ఉంటాననీ ఆయన శపథం చేశాడు.
12 നിന്റെ മക്കൾ എന്റെ ഉടമ്പടി പാലിക്കുകയും ഞാൻ അഭ്യസിപ്പിച്ച എന്റെ നിയമം പിൻതുടരുകയും ചെയ്താൽ, അവരുടെ മക്കളും നിന്റെ സിംഹാസനത്തിൽ എന്നുമെന്നും വാഴും.”
౧౨నీ కొడుకులు నా నిబంధన పాటిస్తే నేను నేర్పిన నా శాసనాలు అనుసరిస్తే ఇలా జరుగుతుంది, అన్నాడు.
13 കാരണം യഹോവ സീയോനെ തെരഞ്ഞെടുത്തിരിക്കുന്നു, അതു തന്റെ നിവാസസ്ഥാനമാക്കാൻ അവിടന്ന് ആഗ്രഹിച്ചു,
౧౩తప్పనిసరిగా యెహోవా సీయోనును ఎన్నుకున్నాడు. దాన్ని తన నివాసస్థలంగా కోరుకున్నాడు.
14 “ഇതാണ് എന്നെന്നേക്കും എന്റെ വിശ്രമസ്ഥാനം; ഇവിടെ ഞാൻ സിംഹാസനസ്ഥനായിരിക്കും, കാരണം ഞാനതാഗ്രഹിച്ചു.
౧౪ఇది నేను కోరుకున్న స్థలం. ఇది శాశ్వతంగా నా విశ్రాంతి స్థలంగా ఉంటుంది. ఇక్కడే నేను నివసిస్తాను.
15 അവൾക്ക് ആവശ്യമായ വിഭവങ്ങളെല്ലാം ഞാൻ സമൃദ്ധമായി നൽകും; അവളുടെ ദരിദ്രരെ ഞാൻ ഭക്ഷണം നൽകി സംതൃപ്തരാക്കും.
౧౫దానిలో ఆహారం సమృద్ధిగా ఉండేలా దీవిస్తాను. దానిలోని పేదలను చాలినంత ఆహారంతో తృప్తి పరుస్తాను.
16 അവളുടെ പുരോഹിതവൃന്ദത്തെ ഞാൻ രക്ഷ ധരിപ്പിക്കും, അവളുടെ വിശ്വസ്തർ സദാ ആനന്ദഗാനം ആലപിക്കും.
౧౬దాని యాజకులకు రక్షణ ధరింపజేస్తాను. దానిలో భక్తులు ఎలుగెత్తి హర్ష ధ్వానాలు చేస్తారు.
17 “ഇവിടെ ഞാൻ ദാവീദിന് ഒരു കൊമ്പു മുളപ്പിക്കും എന്റെ അഭിഷിക്തന് ഞാൻ ഒരു വിളക്ക് ഒരുക്കിയിരിക്കുന്നു.
౧౭అక్కడే దావీదు వంశానికి చిగురు మొలకెత్తేలా చేస్తాను. అక్కడే నా అభిషిక్తుని కోసం నేను ఒక దీపం సిద్ధం చేసి ఉంచాను.
18 അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ശത്രുക്കളെ ഞാൻ ലജ്ജകൊണ്ടു പൊതിയും, എന്നാൽ അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ശിരസ്സ് തേജോമയമായ കിരീടത്താൽ അലംകൃതമായിരിക്കും.”
౧౮అతని శత్రువులు అవమానం ధరించుకునేలా చేస్తాను. అతని కిరీటం మాత్రం ప్రకాశిస్తుంది.
