రాజులు~ మొదటి~ గ్రంథము 13
1 ౧ ఒక దైవ సేవకుడు యెహోవా మాట చొప్పున యూదాదేశం నుండి బేతేలుకు వచ్చాడు. ధూపం వేయడానికి యరొబాము ఆ బలిపీఠం దగ్గర నిలబడి ఉన్నాడు.
၁ယုဒပြည်မှပရောဖက်တစ်ပါးသည် ထာဝရ ဘုရား၏အမိန့်တော်အရဗေသလမြို့သို့ သွားရာယဇ်ပူဇော်ရန် ယဇ်ပလ္လင်တွင်ယေရော ဗောင်ရပ်လျက်နေချိန်၌ရောက်ရှိလာလေသည်။-
2 ౨ ఆ దైవ సేవకుడు యెహోవా ఆజ్ఞ ప్రకారం బలిపీఠానికి వ్యతిరేకంగా ఇలా ప్రకటన చేశాడు. “బలిపీఠమా! బలిపీఠమా! యెహోవా చెప్పేదేమిటంటే, దావీదు సంతానంలో యోషీయా అనే పేరుతో ఒక మగ బిడ్డ పుడతాడు. నీ మీద ధూపం వేసిన ఉన్నత పూజా స్థలాల యాజకులను అతడు నీ మీద వధిస్తాడు. అతడు మనిషి ఎముకలను నీ మీద కాలుస్తాడు.”
၂ထာဝရဘုရား၏အမိန့်တော်အတိုင်းပရော ဖက်က``အို ယဇ်ပလ္လင်၊ ယဇ်ပလ္လင်၊ ထာဝရဘုရား က`ယောရှိနာမည်တွင်မည့်သူငယ်သည်ဒါဝိဒ် ၏သားချင်းစုတွင်ဖွားမြင်လိမ့်မည်။ ပူဇော် သကာများကိုသင်၏အပေါ်တွင်တင်လှူကာ မိစ္ဆာယဇ်ပလ္လင်များတွင်အမှုထမ်းဆောင်သော ယဇ်ပုရောဟိတ်တို့အား သူသည်သင့်အပေါ် မှာတင်၍ယဇ်ပူဇော်လိမ့်မည်။ လူရိုးတို့ကို လည်းတင်၍မီးရှို့လိမ့်မည်' ဟုမိန့်တော် မူ၏'' ဟုဆင့်ဆို၏။-
3 ౩ అదే రోజు అతడు ఒక సూచన ఇచ్చాడు. “ఈ బలిపీఠం బద్దలై దానిమీదున్న బూడిద ఒలికి పోతుంది. యెహోవా చెప్పిన సూచన ఇదే” అన్నాడు.
၃ထို့နောက်ပရောဖက်ကဆက်လက်၍``ဤယဇ်ပလ္လင် သည်ပြိုကွဲ၍ ပလ္လင်ပေါ်ရှိပြာတို့သည်လည်းပျံ့ လွင့်လိမ့်မည်။ ထိုအခါငါ့အားဖြင့်ဤစကား ကိုထာဝရဘုရားမိန့်တော်မူကြောင်းသင် သိလိမ့်မည်'' ဟုဟောလေ၏။
4 ౪ బేతేలులోని బలిపీఠాన్ని గురించి ఆ దైవ సేవకుడు ప్రకటించిన మాట యరొబామురాజు విని, బలిపీఠం మీదనుండి తన చెయ్యి చాపి “అతన్ని పట్టుకోండి” అన్నాడు. అతడు చాపిన చెయ్యి చచ్చుబడి పోయింది. అతడు దాన్ని తిరిగి వెనక్కి తీసుకోలేకపోయాడు.
၄ထိုစကားကိုကြားလျှင်ယေရောဗောင်မင်းသည် ပရောဖက်အားလက်ညှိုးထိုး၍``ထိုသူကိုဖမ်း ဆီးကြလော့'' ဟုအမိန့်ပေးတော်မူ၏။ ထိုခဏ ၌သူသည်လေဖြတ်သဖြင့်မိမိ၏လက်ကို ပြန်လည်ရုပ်သိမ်း၍မရတော့ချေ။-
၅ပရောဖက်သည်ထာဝရဘုရား၏နှုတ်ကပတ် တော်ကိုကြိုတင်ဖော်ပြခဲ့သည့်အတိုင်း ယဇ်ပလ္လင် သည်လည်းရုတ်တရက်ပြိုကွဲကာပြာတို့သည် မြေပေါ်သို့ဖိတ်စင်၍ကျလေသည်။-
6 ౬ అప్పుడు రాజు “నా చెయ్యి తిరిగి బాగయ్యేలా నీ దేవుడు యెహోవా నా మీద దయ చూపేలా నా కోసం వేడుకో” అని ఆ దేవుని మనిషితో అన్నాడు. కాబట్టి దైవ సేవకుడు యెహోవాను వేడుకున్నాడు. రాజు చెయ్యి బాగై మునుపటి లాగా అయింది.
၆ယေရောဗောင်မင်းက``အကျွန်ုပ်၏လက်ပျောက်ကင်း စေရန် သင်၏ဘုရားသခင်ထာဝရဘုရားထံ အသနားခံပါလော့'' ဟုတောင်းပန်၏။ ပရောဖက်သည်ထာဝရဘုရားထံတော်သို့ဆု တောင်းသဖြင့် မင်းကြီး၏လက်သည်ရောဂါ ပျောက်လေ၏။-
7 ౭ అప్పుడు రాజు “నీవు నా ఇంటికి వచ్చి అలసట తీర్చుకో. నీకు బహుమతి ఇస్తాను” అని ఆ దైవసేవకుడితో చెప్పాడు.
၇ထိုအခါမင်းကြီးကပရောဖက်အား``အကျွန်ုပ် နှင့်အတူ နန်းတော်သို့လိုက်၍အစားအစာ သုံးဆောင်ပါလော့။ သင့်အားလက်ဆောင်ပေး ပါမည်'' ဟုဆို၏။
8 ౮ అప్పుడు దైవ సేవకుడు రాజుతో ఇలా అన్నాడు “నీవు నీ ఇంట్లో సగం నాకిచ్చినా నీతోబాటు నేను లోపలికి రాను. ఇక్కడ నేనేమీ తినను, తాగను.
၈ပရောဖက်ကလည်း``ဘုရင်မင်း၏စည်းစိမ်ဥစ္စာ တစ်ဝက်ကိုပင်ပေးသော်လည်းငါမလိုက်လိုပါ။ အဘယ်အစားအစာကိုမျှမစားလိုပါ။-
9 ౯ ఎందుకంటే, ఇక్కడేమీ తినొద్దనీ తాగొద్దనీ వచ్చిన దారినే తిరిగి వెళ్ళవద్దనీ యెహోవా నాకు ఆజ్ఞాపించాడు.”
၉ထာဝရဘုရားကငါ့အားအဘယ်အစာ ရေစာကိုမျှမစားမသောက်ရန်နှင့် လာလမ်း အတိုင်းမပြန်ရန်ပညတ်တော်မူပြီ'' ဟု လျှောက်၏။-
၁၀ထို့နောက်သူသည်လာလမ်းဖြင့်မပြန်ဘဲ အခြားလမ်းဖြင့်ပြန်လေ၏။
11 ౧౧ బేతేలులో ఒక ముసలి ప్రవక్త నివసించేవాడు. అతని కొడుకుల్లో ఒకడు వచ్చి బేతేలులో ఆ దైవ సేవకుడు ఆ రోజు చేసినదంతా అతనికి చెప్పాడు. అతడు రాజుతో చెప్పిన మాటలు కూడా అతని కొడుకులు అతనికి చెప్పారు.
၁၁ထိုအချိန်အခါ၌ဗေသလမြို့တွင်နေထိုင် သူပရောဖက်အိုကြီးတစ်ပါးရှိ၏။ သူ၏သား များသည်ထိုနေ့၌ဗေသလမြို့တွင်ယုဒ ပရောဖက်ပြုမူသွားပုံနှင့် မင်းကြီးအား ပြောကြားသောစကားများကိုဖခင်အား ပြန်ပြောကြ၏။-
12 ౧౨ వారి తండ్రి “అతడు ఏ దారిన వెళ్ళాడు?” అని వారినడిగాడు. అతని కొడుకులు యూదాదేశాన్నుంచి వచ్చిన దేవుని మనిషి ఏ దారిలో వెళ్ళాడో చెప్పారు.
၁၂ပရောဖက်အိုကြီးက``ထိုသူသည်အဘယ် လမ်းဖြင့်ပြန်သနည်း'' ဟုသားတို့အားမေး လျှင်သားတို့သည်ယုဒပရောဖက်ပြန်သည့် လမ်းကိုညွှန်ပြကြ၏။-
13 ౧౩ తరువాత అతడు తన కొడుకులను పిలిచి “నాకోసం గాడిద మీద జీను వేయండి” అని చెప్పాడు. వారు అతని కోసం గాడిదపై జీను వేశారు. అతడు దాని మీద ఎక్కి బయలుదేరాడు.
၁၃ပရောဖက်အိုကြီးက``ငါ၏မြည်းကိုကုန်းနှီး တင်ကြလော့'' ဟုဆိုသည့်အတိုင်းသားတို့ သည်ကုန်းနှီးတင်၍ပေးကြ၏။-
14 ౧౪ సింధూర వృక్షం కింద దేవుని మనిషి కూర్చుని ఉండగా చూసి “యూదాదేశం నుండి వచ్చిన దైవ ప్రవక్తవు నువ్వేనా?” అని అడిగాడు. అతడు “నేనే” అన్నాడు.
၁၄ထိုအခါသူသည်မြည်းကိုစီး၍ယုဒပရော ဖက်၏နောက်သို့လိုက်လေ၏။ ဝက်သစ်ချပင် တစ်ပင်အောက်တွင်ထိုပရောဖက်ထိုင်လျက် နေသည်ကိုတွေ့သောအခါ ပရောဖက်အို ကြီးက``သင်သည်ယုဒပြည်မှလာသော ပရောဖက်လော'' ဟုမေး၏။ ထိုသူကလည်း``ဟုတ်ပါသည်'' ဟုဖြေ၏။
၁၅``ငါနှင့်အတူအိမ်သို့လိုက်၍အစားအစာကို စားသောက်ပါလော့'' ဟုပရောဖက်အိုကြီးက ခေါ်ဖိတ်၏။
၁၆သို့ရာတွင်ယုဒပရောဖက်က``ငါသည်သင်နှင့် အတူမလိုက်နိုင်။ သင်ဧည့်ဝတ်ပြုသည်ကိုလည်း လက်မခံနိုင်။ သင်နှင့်အတူဤအရပ်တွင် အဘယ်အစာရေစာကိုမျှမစားမသောက် နိုင်။-
17 ౧౭ నీవు అక్కడ ఏదీ తినొద్దనీ తాగొద్దనీ నీవు వచ్చిన దారిలో వెళ్ళ వద్దనీ యెహోవా నాతో చెప్పాడు” అన్నాడు.
၁၇အဘယ်ကြောင့်ဆိုသော်ထာဝရဘုရားက ငါ့အား`အဘယ်အစာရေစာကိုမျှမစား မသောက်နှင့်။ လာလမ်းအတိုင်းလည်းမပြန် နှင့်' ဟုပညတ်တော်မူသောကြောင့်ဖြစ်ပါ သည်'' ဟုပြန်ပြောလေ၏။
18 ౧౮ అప్పుడు ఆ ముసలి ప్రవక్త అతనితో “నేను కూడా నీలాంటి ప్రవక్తనే. యెహోవా ఆజ్ఞ ప్రకారం ఒక దేవదూత ‘భోజనం చేయడానికి అతన్ని వెంటబెట్టుకుని తీసుకు రా’ అని నాతో చెప్పాడు” అన్నాడు. అలా అతడు ఆ దేవుని మనిషితో అబద్ధమాడాడు.
၁၈ထိုအခါဗေသလမြို့သားပရောဖက်အိုကြီး က``ငါသည်လည်းသင်ကဲ့သို့ပင်ပရောဖက်ဖြစ် ပါ၏။ ထာဝရဘုရား၏အမိန့်တော်အရ ကောင်းကင်တမန်တစ်ပါးကသင့်ကိုအိမ်သို့ ဖိတ်ခေါ်၍ဧည့်ဝတ်ပြုရန် ငါ့အားမှာကြား ထားပါသည်'' ဟုဆို၏။ ယင်းသို့ထိုပရောဖက် ကြီးကမုသားသုံး၍ပြောဆိုသဖြင့်၊
၁၉ယုဒပရောဖက်သည်သူနှင့်အတူ အိမ်သို့ လိုက်၍အစားအစာကိုသုံးဆောင်လေသည်။-
၂၀သူတို့သည်စားပွဲတွင်ထိုင်လျက်နေစဉ်ပရော ဖက်အိုကြီးသည် ထာဝရဘုရား၏ဗျာဒိတ် တော်ရောက်၍၊-
21 ౨౧ అతడు యూదాదేశాన్నుండి వచ్చిన దేవుని మనిషితో “యెహోవా ఇలా చెబుతున్నాడు, నీ దేవుడు యెహోవా నీకు చెప్పిన మాట వినక, ఆయన ఆజ్ఞాపించిన దాన్ని పాటించకుండా
၂၁ယုဒပရောဖက်အား``ထာဝရဘုရားကသင်သည် ငါ၏စကားတော်ကိုမနာခံ။ ငါ၏အမိန့်တော် အတိုင်းမဆောင်ရွက်။ အစားအစာမစားရန်ငါ မှာကြားသော်လည်း ဤအရပ်သို့ပြန်လာကာစား သောက်သည်ဖြစ်သောကြောင့်အသတ်ခံရလိမ့်မည်။ သင်၏အလောင်းကိုဘိုးဘေးတို့သင်္ချိုင်းတွင် သင်္ဂြိုဟ်ရလိမ့်မည်ဟုမိန့်တော်မူ၏'' ဟုဆင့်ဆို၏။
22 ౨౨ వెనక్కి వచ్చి, నీవు అక్కడ భోజనం చేయొద్దని ఆయన చెప్పిన చోట భోజనం చేశావు కాబట్టి నీ శవాన్ని నీ పూర్వీకుల సమాధులకు చేరదు” అని బిగ్గరగా చెప్పాడు.
၂၂
23 ౨౩ వారు భోజనం చేసిన తరువాత ఆ ప్రవక్త తాను వెనక్కి తీసుకు వచ్చిన ఆ దైవసేవకుని గాడిదపై జీను వేశాడు.
၂၃သူတို့စားသောက်၍ပြီးသောအခါ ပရောဖက်အို ကြီးသည်မြည်းကိုကုန်းနှီးတင်၍ပေးသဖြင့်၊-
24 ౨౪ అతడు బయలుదేరి వెళ్లి పోతుంటే దారిలో ఒక సింహం అతనికి ఎదురుపడి అతన్ని చంపేసింది. అతని శవం దారిలోనే పడి ఉంది. గాడిద దాని దగ్గర నిలబడి ఉంది, సింహం కూడా శవం దగ్గర నిలబడి ఉంది.
၂၄ယုဒပရောဖက်သည်မြည်းကိုစီး၍ထွက်လာ ရာလမ်းတွင် ခြင်္သေ့ကိုက်၍သေလေ၏။-
25 ౨౫ కొంతమంది అటుగా వెళ్తూ శవం దారిలో పడి ఉండడం, సింహం శవం దగ్గర నిలబడి ఉండడం చూసి, ఆ ముసలి ప్రవక్త నివసిస్తున్న ఊరు వచ్చి ఆ విషయం చెప్పారు.
၂၅သူ၏အလောင်းသည်လမ်းပေါ်တွင်လဲလျက် မြည်းနှင့်ခြင်္သေ့သည်လည်း ထိုအလောင်းအနီး ၌ပင်ရပ်လျက်နေကြ၏။ ယင်းသို့လမ်းပေါ် တွင်လဲနေသောအလောင်းကိုလည်းကောင်း၊ အနီးတွင်ရပ်လျက်နေသောမြည်းနှင့်ခြင်္သေ့ ကိုလည်းကောင်းခရီးသွားသူအချို့တို့ မြင်ကြ၏။ သူတို့သည်ဗေသလမြို့သို့ သွားပြီးလျှင်မိမိတို့တွေ့မြင်ခဲ့ရသည့် အဖြစ်အပျက်ကိုပြောကြားကြ၏။
26 ౨౬ దారిలో నుండి అతన్ని తీసుకు వచ్చిన ఆ ప్రవక్త ఆ విషయం విని “యెహోవా మాట వినక ఎదురు తిరిగిన దైవ సేవకుడు ఇతడే. యెహోవా సింహానికి అతన్ని అప్పగించేసాడు. యెహోవా చెప్పినట్టు, అది అతన్ని చీల్చి చంపేసింది” అని చెప్పాడు.
၂၆ပရောဖက်အိုကြီးသည် ထိုသတင်းကိုကြား သောအခါ``ဤသူကားထာဝရဘုရား၏အမိန့် တော်ကိုလွန်ဆန်သည့်ပရောဖက်ပင်ဖြစ်ပါသည် တကား။ ထာဝရဘုရားသည်မိမိအမိန့်တော်ရှိ ခဲ့သည့်အတိုင်း ခြင်္သေ့ကိုစေလွှတ်၍ကိုက်သတ်စေ တော်မူလေပြီ'' ဟုဆို၏။-
27 ౨౭ తన కొడుకులను పిలిచి “నా కోసం గాడిదను ప్రయాణానికి సిద్ధం చేయండి” అని చెప్పాడు. వారు అతని కోసం గాడిదను సిద్ధ పరిచారు.
၂၇ထိုနောက်သူသည်မိမိ၏သားတို့အား``ငါ၏မြည်း ကိုကုန်းနှီးတင်ကြလော့'' ဟုဆိုသည်အတိုင်း သူတို့သည်ကုန်းနှီးတင်၍ပေးကြ၏။-
28 ౨౮ అతడు వెళ్లి అతని శవం దారిలో పడి ఉండడం, గాడిద, సింహం శవం దగ్గర నిలిచి ఉండడం, సింహం గాడిదను చీల్చివేయకుండా శవాన్ని తినకుండా ఉండడం చూసి
၂၈ထိုအခါပရောဖက်အိုကြီးသည်မြည်းကိုစီး ၍ထွက်သွားရာ လမ်းပေါ်တွင်သေနေသောပရော ဖက်နှင့်အနီးတွင်ရပ်နေလျက်ရှိနေသေးသည့် မြည်းနှင့်ခြင်္သေ့ကိုတွေ့လေ၏။ ခြင်္သေ့သည်လူ သေကောင်ကိုလည်းမစား၊ မြည်းကိုလည်း မကိုက်။-
29 ౨౯ ఆ ముసలి ప్రవక్త అ దేవుని మనిషి శవాన్ని ఎత్తి గాడిద మీద వేసుకుని దుఃఖించడానికీ శవాన్ని పాతి పెట్టడానికీ తన స్వగ్రామం వచ్చాడు.
၂၉ပရောဖက်အိုကြီးသည်ထိုအလောင်းကိုယူ၍ မြည်းပေါ်သို့တင်ပြီးလျှင် ဝမ်းနည်းပူဆွေး သည့်အထိမ်းအမှတ်ကိုပြရန်နှင့်သင်္ဂြိုဟ်ရန် ဗေသလမြို့သို့ယူဆောင်လာ၏။-
၃၀သူသည်ထိုအလောင်းကိုမိမိ၏အိမ်ထောင်စု သင်္ချိုင်းတွင်သင်္ဂြိုဟ်ပြီးနောက် မိမိ၏သားများ နှင့်အတူ``အို ငါ့ညီ၊ ငါ့ညီ'' ဟုဆို၍ငိုကြွေး မြည်းတမ်းလေသည်။-
31 ౩౧ అతన్ని పాతిపెట్టిన తరువాత, ఆ ముసలి ప్రవక్త తన కొడుకులతో “నేను చనిపోయినప్పుడు ఆ ప్రవక్తను ఉంచిన సమాధిలోనే నన్నూ పాతిపెట్టండి. నా ఎముకలను అతని ఎముకల దగ్గరే పెట్టండి.
၃၁ထိုနောက်ပရောဖက်အိုကြီးသည်မိမိ၏သား များအား``ငါသေသောအခါထိုသူ၏အနီး တွင်ကပ်၍ဤသင်္ချိုင်းတွင်သင်္ဂြိုဟ်ကြလော့။-
32 ౩౨ ఎందుకంటే యెహోవా మాటను బట్టి బేతేలులో ఉన్న బలిపీఠానికి వ్యతిరేకంగా, సమరయ పట్టణంలో ఉన్న ఉన్నత స్థలాల్లో ఉన్న మందిరాలన్నిటికీ వ్యతిరేకంగా అతడు ప్రకటించినది తప్పకుండా జరుగుతుంది” అని చెప్పాడు.
၃၂ဗေသလမြို့ရှိယဇ်ပလ္လင်နှင့် ပတ်သက်၍လည်း ကောင်း၊ ရှမာရိမြို့များရှိဝတ်ပြုကိုးကွယ်ရာ ဌာနများနှင့်ပတ်သက်၍လည်းကောင်း၊ ထာဝရ ဘုရားအမိန့်တော်အရထိုသူပြန်ကြားသည့် စကား မှန်သမျှသည်မုချအကောင်အထည် ပေါ်လာလိမ့်မည်'' ဟုဆို၏။
33 ౩౩ ఇది జరిగిన తరువాత కూడా యరొబాము తన దుర్మార్గాన్ని విడిచిపెట్టలేదు. మరో సారి సాధారణ మనుషులను ఉన్నత పూజాస్థలాలకు యాజకులుగా నియమించాడు. పూజ చేయడానికి ఇష్టపడిన వారందరినీ యాజకులుగా ప్రతిష్ఠించి వారిని ఉన్నత పూజా స్థలాలకు యాజకులుగా నియమించాడు.
၃၃ဣသရေလဘုရင်ယေရောဗောင်သည်ယခုတိုင် အောင်ပင် မိမိ၏ဒုစရိုက်လမ်းစဉ်ကိုမစွန့်သေး ဘဲ မိမိတည်ဆောက်ထားသည့်ယဇ်ပလ္လင်များတွင် အမှုထမ်းရန် ယဇ်ပုရောဟိတ်များအဖြစ်သာမန် အိမ်ထောင်စုများမှရွေးချယ်ခန့်ထားလေ့ရှိ၏။ သူ သည်ယဇ်ပုရောဟိတ်လုပ်လိုသူမှန်သမျှကို ခန့်ထားလေသည်။-
၃၄ဤသို့သူကူးလွန်သည့်အပြစ်ကြောင့်သူ၏ မင်းဆက်သည်လုံးဝပျက်သုဉ်း၍သွားလေ၏။
