< దినవృత్తాంతములు~ రెండవ~ గ్రంథము 33 >
1 ౧ మనష్షే పరిపాలించడం మొదలుపెట్టినప్పుడు అతని వయసు 12 ఏళ్ళు. అతడు యెరూషలేములో 55 ఏళ్ళు పాలించాడు.
মনঃশি 12 বছর বয়সে রাজা হলেন, এবং জেরুশালেমে তিনি পঞ্চান্ন বছর রাজত্ব করলেন।
2 ౨ ఇతడు ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల దగ్గర నుంచి యెహోవా వెళ్లగొట్టిన రాజ్యాల ప్రజలు చేసిన నీచమైన పనులు అనుసరించి, యెహోవా దృష్టికి చెడుగా ప్రవర్తించాడు.
ইস্রায়েলীদের সামনে থেকে সদাপ্রভু যে জাতিদের দূর করে দিলেন, তাদের ঘৃণ্য প্রথা অনুসরণ করে তিনি সদাপ্রভুর দৃষ্টিতে যা যা মন্দ, তাই করলেন।
3 ౩ ఇతడు తన తండ్రియైన హిజ్కియా పడగొట్టిన ఉన్నత స్థలాలను తిరిగి కట్టించి, బయలు దేవతకు బలిపీఠాలను నిలిపి, అషేరా దేవతాస్తంభాలను చేయించి, ఆకాశనక్షత్రాలన్నిటిని పూజించి కొలిచాడు.
তাঁর বাবা হিষ্কিয় প্রতিমাপূজার যে উঁচু স্থানগুলি ভূমিসাৎ করলেন, তিনি সেগুলিই আবার নতুন করে গড়ে তুলেছিলেন; এছাড়াও তিনি বায়াল-দেবতাদের উদ্দেশে বেদি গেঁথে তুলেছিলেন এবং আশেরার খুঁটিও তৈরি করেছিলেন। তিনি আকাশের রাশি রাশি তারার কাছে মাথা নত করতেন এবং সেগুলির পূজার্চনা করতেন।
4 ౪ “యెరూషలేములో నా పేరు ఎప్పటికీ ఉంటుంది” అని యెహోవా ఏ స్థలాన్ని ఉద్దేశించి పలికాడో అదే యెహోవా మందిరంలో అతడు అన్య దేవుళ్ళకు బలిపీఠాలను కట్టించాడు.
তিনি সদাপ্রভুর সেই মন্দিরে কয়েকটি বেদি তৈরি করলেন, যেটির বিষয়ে সদাপ্রভু বললেন, “আমার নাম জেরুশালেমে চিরকাল বজায় থাকবে।”
5 ౫ యెహోవా మందిరపు రెండు ఆవరణాల్లో అతడు ఆకాశ నక్షత్ర సమూహానికి బలిపీఠాలను కట్టించాడు.
সদাপ্রভুর মন্দিরের উভয় প্রাঙ্গণে তিনি আকাশের সব তারকাদলের জন্য কয়েকটি বেদি তৈরি করে দিলেন।
6 ౬ బెన్ హిన్నోము లోయలో అతడు తన కొడుకులను దహనబలిగా అర్పించాడు. శకునాలు చూడడం, సోదె వినడం చేశాడు. మంత్ర విద్య చేయించాడు. చచ్చినవాళ్ళతో మాట్లాడే వారిని దయ్యాలతో మాట్లాడే వారిని సంప్రదించాడు. యెహోవా దృష్టిలో చాలా చెడ్డగా ప్రవర్తిస్తూ ఆయనకు కోపం పుట్టించాడు.
বিন-হিন্নোমের উপত্যকায় তিনি তাঁর সন্তানদের আগুনে উৎসর্গ করতেন, দৈববিচার ও ডাকিনীবিদ্যার চর্চা করতেন, শুভ-অশুভ চিহ্নের খোঁজ চালাতেন, এবং প্রেতমাধ্যম ও গুনিনদের সাথেও শলাপরামর্শ করতেন। সদাপ্রভুর দৃষ্টিতে প্রচুর অন্যায় করে তিনি তাঁর ক্রোধ জাগিয়ে তুলেছিলেন।
7 ౭ “ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల గోత్రాలన్నిటిలో నేను ఎన్నుకున్న యెరూషలేములో నాపేరు ఎల్లప్పుడూ ఉంచుతాను.
একটি মূর্তি তৈরি করে, তিনি সেটি নিয়ে গিয়ে ঈশ্বরের সেই মন্দিরে রেখেছিলেন, যেটির বিষয়ে ঈশ্বর দাউদ ও তাঁর ছেলে শলোমনকে বলে দিলেন, “এই মন্দিরে ও যে জেরুশালেমকে আমি ইস্রায়েলের সব বংশের মধ্যে থেকে আলাদা করে মনোনীত করেছি, সেখানেই আমি চিরকাল আমার নাম বজায় রাখব।
8 ౮ నేను మోషేద్వారా నియమించిన కట్టడలను విధులను ధర్మశాస్త్రమంతటిని అనుసరించి నడచుకొనడానికి వారు జాగ్రత్తపడితే, మీ పూర్వీకులకు నేను ఏర్పరచిన దేశం నుంచి ఇశ్రాయేలీయులను నేను ఇక ఎన్నటికీ తొలగించను” అని దావీదుతో అతని కొడుకు సొలొమోనుతో దేవుడు సెలవిచ్చిన మాటను లక్ష్యపెట్టక, ఆ మందిరంలో తాను చేయించిన అషేరా చెక్కుడు విగ్రహాన్ని నిలిపాడు.
শুধু যদি ইস্রায়েলীরা একটু সতর্ক হয়ে সেই নিয়ম, বিধান ও নির্দেশগুলি মেনে চলে, যেগুলি পালন করার আদেশ মোশির মাধ্যমে আমি তাদের দিয়েছিলাম, তবে আমি আর কখনোই সেই দেশের বাইরে ইস্রায়েলীদের পা বাড়াতে দেব না, যে দেশটি আমি তোমাদের পূর্বপুরুষদের দিয়েছিলাম।”
9 ౯ యూదావారిని యెరూషలేము నివాసులనూ ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల ముందు నుంచి యెహోవా నాశనం చేసిన రాజ్యాలకంటే వారు మరింత దుర్మార్గంగా ప్రవర్తించేలా మనష్షే వారిని నడిపించాడు.
কিন্তু মনঃশি এমনভাবে যিহূদাকে ও জেরুশালেমের লোকজনকে বিপথে পরিচালিত করলেন, যে তারা সেইসব জাতির চেয়েও বেশি অন্যায় করল, যে জাতিদের সদাপ্রভু ইস্রায়েলীদের সামনে ধ্বংস করে দিলেন।
10 ౧౦ యెహోవా మనష్షేతో అతని ప్రజలతో మాట్లాడాడు కానీ వారు పట్టించుకోలేదు.
সদাপ্রভু মনঃশি ও তাঁর প্রজাদের সাথে কথা বলতেন, কিন্তু তারা সেকথায় মনোযোগ দিতেন না।
11 ౧౧ కాబట్టి యెహోవా అష్షూరురాజు సైన్యాధిపతులను వారిమీదికి రప్పించాడు. వారు మనష్షేను పట్టుకుని, గొలుసులతో బంధించి అతణ్ణి బబులోను తీసుకు వెళ్ళారు.
তাই তাদের বিরুদ্ধে সদাপ্রভু আসিরিয়ার রাজার সেই সেনাপতিদের নিয়ে এলেন, যারা মনঃশিকে বন্দি করল, তাঁর নাকে বড়শি গেঁথে দিয়েছিল, ও ব্রোঞ্জের শিকলে বেঁধে তাঁকে ব্যাবিলনে নিয়ে গেল।
12 ౧౨ బాధతో అతడు తన దేవుడైన యెహోవాను బతిమాలి, తన పూర్వీకుల దేవుని సన్నిధిలో తన్ను తాను ఎంతో తగ్గించుకున్నాడు.
দুর্দশায় পড়ে তিনি তাঁর ঈশ্বর সদাপ্রভুর কাছে অনুগ্রহ চেয়েছিলেন এবং তাঁর পূর্বপুরুষদের ঈশ্বরের সামনে নিজেকে অত্যন্ত নত করলেন।
13 ౧౩ అతడు ప్రార్థన చేసినప్పుడు ఆయన అతని విన్నపాలు ఆలకించి యెరూషలేముకు, అతని రాజ్యానికి అతణ్ణి తిరిగి తీసుకువచ్చాడు. అప్పుడు యెహోవాయే దేవుడని మనష్షే తెలుసుకున్నాడు.
আর তিনি যখন তাঁর কাছে প্রার্থনা করলেন, তখন তাঁর মিনতি সদাপ্রভুর হৃদয় স্পর্শ করল ও তিনি তাঁর সনির্বন্ধ অনুরোধ শুনেছিলেন; তাই তিনি তাঁকে জেরুশালেমে ও তাঁর রাজ্যে ফিরিয়ে এনেছিলেন। তখন মনঃশি বুঝেছিলেন যে সদাপ্রভুই ঈশ্বর।
14 ౧౪ దీని తరువాత అతడు దావీదు పట్టణం బయట గిహోనుకు పడమరగా, లోయలో చేప గుమ్మం వరకూ ఓపెలు చుట్టూ చాలా ఎత్తయిన గోడ కట్టించాడు. యూదా దేశంలోని బలమైన పట్టణాలన్నిటిలో సేనాధిపతులను ఉంచాడు.
পরে একেবারে মৎস-দ্বারের প্রবেশদ্বার পর্যন্ত গিয়ে ও ওফল পাহাড় ঘিরে থাকা উপত্যকায় অবস্থিত গীহোন জলের উৎসের পশ্চিমদিকে, দাউদ-নগরের বাইরের দিকের প্রাচীরটি তিনি নতুন করে গড়ে দিলেন; তিনি আবার সেটি আরও উঁচু করে দিলেন। যিহূদার সব সুরক্ষিত নগরেও তিনি সামরিক সেনাপতি মোতায়েন করে দিলেন।
15 ౧౫ యెహోవా మందిరం నుంచి అన్యుల దేవతా విగ్రహం తీసివేసి, యెరూషలేములో యెహోవా మందిరం ఉన్న కొండ మీద తాను కట్టించిన బలిపీఠాలన్నిటినీ తీసి పట్టణం బయట పారవేయించాడు.
সদাপ্রভুর মন্দির থেকে তিনি বিজাতীয় দেবতাদের দূর করলেন এবং প্রতিমার মূর্তিগুলিও দূর করলেন, এছাড়াও মন্দির-পাহাড়ের উপর ও জেরুশালেমে তিনি যেসব বেদি তৈরি করলেন, সেগুলিও তিনি উপড়ে ফেলেছিলেন; এবং সেগুলি নগরের বাইরে ছুঁড়ে ফেলে দিলেন।
16 ౧౬ అతడు యెహోవా బలిపీఠంను బాగుచేసి, దాని మీద సమాధానబలులు, కృతజ్ఞతార్పణలు అర్పిస్తూ, ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల దేవుడైన యెహోవాను సేవించమని యూదా వారికి ఆజ్ఞాపించాడు.
পরে তিনি সদাপ্রভুর যজ্ঞবেদিটি স্বাভাবিক অবস্থায় ফিরিয়ে এনেছিলেন এবং সেটির উপরে মঙ্গলার্থক-নৈবেদ্য ও ধন্যবাদের বলি উৎসর্গ করলেন, ও যিহূদার লোকজনকেও বললেন, যেন তারা ইস্রায়েলের ঈশ্বর সদাপ্রভুর সেবা করে।
17 ౧౭ అయినా ప్రజలు ఎత్తయిన స్థలాల్లో ఇంకా బలులు అర్పిస్తూనే ఉన్నారు గాని అవి తమ దేవుడైన యెహోవాకే అర్పించారు.
প্রজারা অবশ্য তখনও পূজার্চনার উঁচু উঁচু স্থানগুলিতেই নৈবেদ্য উৎসর্গ করে যাচ্ছিল, তবে শুধুমাত্র তাদের ঈশ্বর সদাপ্রভুর উদ্দেশেই তারা তা করছিল।
18 ౧౮ మనష్షే గురించిన ఇతర విషయాలు, అతడు దేవునికి చేసిన ప్రార్థన గురించి, ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల దేవుడైన యెహోవా పేరట అతనితో పలికిన దీర్ఘ దర్శకుల మాటలను గురించి ఇశ్రాయేలు రాజుల గ్రంథంలో రాసి ఉంది.
মনঃশির রাজত্বকালের অন্যান্য সব ঘটনা, এবং তাঁর ঈশ্বরের কাছে করা তাঁর প্রার্থনা ও ইস্রায়েলের ঈশ্বর সদাপ্রভুর নামে তাঁর কাছে বলা দর্শকদের সব কথা ইস্রায়েলের রাজাদের ইতিহাস-গ্রন্থে লেখা আছে।
19 ౧౯ అతని ప్రార్థన, దేవునికి ఎలా మొర్రపెట్టాడో, తనను తాను తగ్గించు కొనక ముందు అతని పాపం గురించి, అతడు చేసిన ద్రోహం గురించి, కట్టించిన ఎతైన పూజా స్థలాలూ అషేరాదేవి స్తంభాలు, చెక్కిన విగ్రహాలను నిలపడం గురించి, దీర్ఘదర్శకుడలు రచించిన గ్రంథాల్లో రాసి వుంది.
তাঁর প্রার্থনা ও তাঁর মিনতি কীভাবে ঈশ্বরের হৃদয় স্পর্শ করল, এছাড়াও তাঁর সব পাপ ও অবিশ্বস্ততা, এবং নিজেকে নত করার আগে যেখানে যেখানে তিনি পূজার্চনার উঁচু উঁচু স্থান তৈরি করলেন এবং আশেরার খুঁটি ও প্রতিমার মূর্তি খাড়া করলেন—সেসবই দর্শকদের পুস্তকে লেখা আছে।
20 ౨౦ మనష్షే చనిపోయినప్పుడు తన పూర్వీకులతో కూడ తన సొంత భవనంలో అతణ్ణి పాతిపెట్టారు. అతని కొడుకు ఆమోను అతనికి బదులు రాజయ్యాడు.
মনঃশি তাঁর পূর্বপুরুষদের সাথে চিরনিদ্রায় শায়িত হলেন এবং তাঁকে তাঁর প্রাসাদেই কবর দেওয়া হল। তাঁর ছেলে আমোন রাজারূপে তাঁর স্থলাভিষিক্ত হলেন।
21 ౨౧ ఆమోను పరిపాలించడం మొదలుపెట్టినప్పుడు అతడు 22 ఏళ్ల వాడు. అతడు యెరూషలేములో రెండేళ్ళు పాలించాడు.
আমোন বাইশ বছর বয়সে রাজা হলেন, এবং জেরুশালেমে তিনি দুই বছর রাজত্ব করলেন।
22 ౨౨ అతడు తన తండ్రి మనష్షే నడచినట్టు యెహోవా దృష్టికి చెడ్డగా ప్రవర్తించాడు. తన తండ్రియైన మనష్షే చేయించిన చెక్కుడు విగ్రహాలన్నిటికీ బలులు అర్పిస్తూ పూజిస్తూ ఉండేవాడు.
তাঁর বাবা মনঃশির মতো তিনিও সদাপ্রভুর দৃষ্টিতে যা যা মন্দ, তাই করলেন। আমোন, মনঃশির তৈরি করা সব প্রতিমার পুজো করতেন ও সেগুলির কাছে নৈবেদ্যও উৎসর্গ করতেন।
23 ౨౩ తన తండ్రియైన మనష్షేలాగా యెహోవా సన్నిధిలో తనను తాను తగ్గించుకోలేదు. దానికి బదులు ఇంకా ఎక్కువ పాపం చేశాడు.
কিন্তু তাঁর বাবা মনঃশি যেভাবে নিজেকে সদাপ্রভুর কাছে নত করলেন, তিনি কিন্তু তা করেননি; আমোন তাঁর অপরাধ বাড়িয়েই গেলেন।
24 ౨౪ అతని సేవకులు అతని మీద కుట్ర చేసి అతని సొంత భవనంలోనే అతణ్ణి చంపేశారు.
আমোনের কর্মকর্তারা তাঁর বিরুদ্ধে ষড়যন্ত্র করে তাঁর রাজপ্রাসাদেই তাঁকে হত্যা করল।
25 ౨౫ అయితే దేశప్రజలు ఆమోను రాజుమీద కుట్ర చేసిన వారందరినీ చంపి అతని కొడుకు యోషీయాను అతని స్థానంలో రాజుగా నియమించారు.
তখন দেশের প্রজারা সেইসব লোককে হত্যা করল, যারা রাজা আমোনের বিরুদ্ধে ষড়যন্ত্রে লিপ্ত হল, এবং তারা তাঁর স্থানে তাঁর ছেলে যোশিয়কে রাজা করল।
