സങ്കീർത്തനങ്ങൾ 48
1 ഒരു ഗീതം. കോരഹ് പുത്രന്മാരുടെ ഒരു സങ്കീർത്തനം. നമ്മുടെ ദൈവത്തിന്റെ പട്ടണത്തിൽ, അവിടത്തെ വിശുദ്ധപർവതത്തിൽ, യഹോവ ഉന്നതനും അത്യന്തം സ്തുത്യനും ആകുന്നു.
౧ఒక పాట, కోరహు వారసుల కీర్తన. మన దేవుని పట్టణంలో తన పరిశుద్ధ పర్వతంపై యెహోవా గొప్పవాడు. అత్యధికంగా ఆయన్ని స్తుతించాలి.
2 മഹാരാജാവിന്റെ നഗരമായി സാഫോൺ ഗിരിപോലെയുള്ള സീയോൻപർവതം ഔന്നത്യംകൊണ്ട് മനോഹരവും സർവഭൂമിയുടെ ആനന്ദവും ആകുന്നു.
౨అది మన దేవుని మహా పట్టణం. ఉత్తరం వైపున ఉన్న సీయోను పర్వతం. దాని ఉచ్ఛ దశ ఎంతో సుందరంగా ఉంది. అది భూమి అంతటికీ ఆనందదాయకంగా ఉంది.
3 അവളിലെ കോട്ടകൾക്കുള്ളിൽ ദൈവമുണ്ട്; അവൾക്കൊരു അഭയസ്ഥാനമായി അവിടന്ന് സ്വയം വെളിപ്പെടുത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നു.
౩దాని భవనాలలో దేవుడు తనను ఆశ్రయంగా తెలియజేసుకుంటున్నాడు.
4 ഇതാ, രാജാക്കന്മാർ സൈന്യസമേതം ഒത്തുചേർന്നു അവർ ഒത്തൊരുമിച്ചു മുന്നേറി,
౪చూడండి, రాజులు సమకూడారు. వాళ్ళంతా కలసి వచ్చారు.
5 അവർ അവളെ നോക്കി അമ്പരപ്പോടെ നിന്നുപോയി സംഭീതരായവർ പലായനംചെയ്തു.
౫వాళ్ళు దాన్ని చూశారు. ఆశ్చర్యపోయారు. తర్వాత వ్యాకులపడ్డారు. గబగబా అక్కణ్ణించి వెళ్ళిపోయారు.
6 അവർക്കൊരു വിറയൽ ബാധിച്ചു പ്രസവവേദന അനുഭവിക്കുന്ന സ്ത്രീയെപ്പോലെ കഠിനവേദന അവർക്കുണ്ടായി.
౬వాళ్ళు అక్కడ ఉన్నప్పుడు వాళ్ళలో వణుకు పుట్టింది. ప్రసవించబోయే స్త్రీకి కలిగే నొప్పుల్లాటి వేదన వాళ్లకు కలిగింది.
7 കിഴക്കൻകാറ്റിനാൽ തകർക്കപ്പെടുന്ന തർശീശ് കപ്പലുകളെപ്പോലെ അവിടന്ന് അവരെ നശിപ്പിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞു.
౭తూర్పుగాలిని నువ్వు రేపి దానితో తర్షీషు ఓడలను పగలగొడుతున్నావు.
8 ഞങ്ങൾ കേട്ടതുപോലെതന്നെ ഞങ്ങൾ കണ്ടിരിക്കുന്നു, സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവയുടെ നഗരത്തിൽ, നമ്മുടെ ദൈവത്തിന്റെ നഗരത്തിൽത്തന്നെ: ദൈവം എന്നേക്കും അവളെ സുരക്ഷിതയാക്കുന്നു. (സേലാ)
౮సేనల ప్రభువైన యెహోవా పట్టణంలో, మన దేవుని పట్టణంలో మనం ఏదైతే విన్నామో దానినే చూశాం. దేవుడు దాన్ని కలకాలం ఉండేలా స్థిరం చేశాడు.
9 ദൈവമേ, അവിടത്തെ ആലയത്തിൽ ഞങ്ങൾ അങ്ങയുടെ അചഞ്ചലസ്നേഹത്തെപ്പറ്റി ധ്യാനിക്കുന്നു.
౯దేవా, నీ మందిరంలో మేము నీ నిబంధన కృపను ధ్యానం చేశాం.
10 ദൈവമേ, അങ്ങയുടെ നാമംപോലെതന്നെ, അവിടത്തെ സ്തുതികൾ ഭൂസീമകളോളം അലയടിക്കുന്നു; അവിടത്തെ വലതുകരത്തിൽ നീതി നിറഞ്ഞിരിക്കുന്നു.
౧౦దేవా, నీ నామం గొప్పదైనట్టు నీ కీర్తి కూడా భూమి అంచులవరకూ గొప్పగా ఉంది. నీతి న్యాయాలతో నీ కుడిచెయ్యి నిండి ఉంది.
11 അവിടത്തെ ന്യായവിധികൾനിമിത്തം സീയോൻപർവതം ആനന്ദിക്കുകയും യെഹൂദാപട്ടണങ്ങൾ ആഹ്ലാദിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു.
౧౧న్యాయమైన నీ శాసనాలను బట్టి సీయోను పర్వతం సంతోషించనీ. యూదా కుమార్తెలను ఆనందించనీ.
12 സീയോനുചുറ്റും നടക്കുക, അവൾക്കുചുറ്റും പ്രദക്ഷിണംചെയ്യുക, അവളുടെ ഗോപുരങ്ങൾ എണ്ണുക,
౧౨సీయోను పర్వతం చుట్టూ తిరుగు. దాని చుట్టూ తిరుగుతూ ఆమె గోపురాలను లెక్కించు.
13 അവളുടെ പ്രതിരോധസന്നാഹം സസൂക്ഷ്മം നിരീക്ഷിക്കുക അവളുടെ കോട്ടമതിലുകൾ സൂക്ഷിച്ചുനോക്കുക, വരുംതലമുറയോട് അവളെക്കുറിച്ചു പറയേണ്ടതിനുതന്നെ.
౧౩తర్వాత తరం వాళ్ళకు దాని గురించి చెప్పడానికై ఆమె గోడలను పరిశీలించు. ఆమె భవనాలను చూడు.
14 കാരണം ഈ ദൈവം ഇന്നുമെന്നേക്കും നമ്മുടെ ദൈവം ആകുന്നു; അന്ത്യംവരെയും അവിടന്നായിരിക്കും നമ്മുടെ മാർഗദർശി.
౧౪ఈ దేవుడు నిరంతరం మనకు దేవుడుగా ఉన్నాడు. మరణం వరకూ ఆయన మనలను నడిపిస్తాడు.
