ఆమోసు 2
1 ౧ యెహోవా చెప్పేదేమిటంటే “మోయాబు మూడు సార్లు, నాలుగు సార్లు చేసిన పాపాలను బట్టి నేను తప్పకుండా దాన్ని శిక్షిస్తాను. ఎందుకంటే వారు ఎదోమురాజు ఎముకలను కాల్చి సున్నం చేశారు.
യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: മോവാബിന്റെ മൂന്നോ നാലോ അതിക്രമംനിമിത്തം, അവൻ എദോംരാജാവിന്റെ അസ്ഥികളെ ചുട്ടു കുമ്മായമാക്കിക്കളഞ്ഞിരിക്കയാൽ തന്നെ, ഞാൻ ശിക്ഷ മടക്കിക്കളകയില്ല.
2 ౨ మోయాబు మీద నేను అగ్ని పంపిస్తాను. అది కెరీయోతు ప్రాకారాలను కాల్చేస్తుంది. యుద్ధ ధ్వనులూ బాకానాదం వినబడుతుంటే మోయాబు హాహాకారాలు చేస్తూ అంతరించి పోతుంది.
ഞാൻ മോവാബിൽ ഒരു തീ അയക്കും; അതു കെരീയോത്തിന്റെ അരമനകളെ ദഹിപ്പിച്ചുകളയും; മോവാബ് കലഹത്തോടും ആർപ്പോടും കാഹളനാദത്തോടും കൂടെ മരിക്കും.
3 ౩ దానిలోని న్యాయమూర్తిని నిర్మూలం చేస్తాను. అతనితోపాటు వారి అధిపతులందరిని నేను చంపేస్తాను” అని యెహోవా చెబుతున్నాడు.
ഞാൻ ന്യായാധിപതിയെ അതിന്റെ നടുവിൽനിന്നു ഛേദിച്ചു, അതിന്റെ സകലപ്രഭുക്കന്മാരെയും അവനോടുകൂടെ കൊല്ലും എന്നു യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.
4 ౪ యెహోవా చెప్పేదేమిటంటే “యూదా మూడు సార్లు, నాలుగు సార్లు చేసిన పాపాలను బట్టి నేను తప్పకుండా వారిని శిక్షిస్తాను. ఎందుకంటే వారు తమ పూర్వీకులు అనుసరించిన వారి అబద్ధాల వలన మోసపోయి యెహోవా ధర్మశాస్త్రాన్ని విసర్జించి, ఆయన విధులను గైకొనలేదు.
യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: യെഹൂദയുടെ മൂന്നോ നാലോ അതിക്രമംനിമിത്തം, അവർ യഹോവയുടെ ന്യായപ്രമാണത്തെ നിരസിക്കയും അവന്റെ ചട്ടങ്ങളെ പ്രമാണിക്കാതെയിരിക്കയും അവരുടെ പിതാക്കന്മാർ പിന്തുടർന്നുപോന്ന അവരുടെ വ്യാജമൂർത്തികൾ അവരെ തെറ്റിനടക്കുമാറാക്കുകയും ചെയ്തിരിക്കയാൽ തന്നേ, ഞാൻ ശിക്ഷ മടക്കിക്കളകയില്ല.
ഞാൻ യെഹൂദയിൽ ഒരു തീ അയക്കും; അതു യെരൂശലേമിലെ അരമനകളെ ദഹിപ്പിച്ചുകളയും.
6 ౬ యెహోవా తెలియజేసేది ఏంటంటే “ఇశ్రాయేలు మూడు సార్లు నాలుగు సార్లు చేసిన పాపాలను బట్టి నేను తప్పకుండా దాన్ని శిక్షిస్తాను. ఎందుకంటే డబ్బు కోసం వాళ్ళు నిర్దోషులను అమ్మేశారు. చెప్పుల కోసం పేదలను అమ్మేశారు.
യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ മൂന്നോ നാലോ അതിക്രമം നിമിത്തം, അവർ നീതിമാനെ പണത്തിന്നും ദരിദ്രനെ ഒരുകൂട്ടു ചെരിപ്പിന്നും വിറ്റുകളഞ്ഞിരിക്കയാൽ തന്നേ, ഞാൻ ശിക്ഷ മടക്കിക്കളകയില്ല.
7 ౭ నేల మీద మట్టిని ప్రజలు తొక్కేసినట్టు దిక్కులేనివారి తలలను తొక్కేస్తున్నారు. అణగారిన వారిని అవతలికి గెంటేస్తున్నారు. తండ్రి, కొడుకు ఒకే స్త్రీతో లైంగిక సంబంధం పెట్టుకుని నా పవిత్ర నామాన్ని అవమానపరుస్తున్నారు.
അവർ എളിയവരുടെ തലയിൽ മൺപൊടി കാണ്മാൻ കാംക്ഷിക്കയും സാധുക്കളുടെ വഴി മറിച്ചുകളകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു: എന്റെ വിശുദ്ധനാമത്തെ അശുദ്ധമാക്കുവാൻ തക്കവണ്ണം ഒരു പുരുഷനും അവന്റെ അപ്പനും ഒരേ യുവതിയുടെ അടുക്കൽ ചെല്ലുന്നു.
8 ౮ తాకట్టుగా ఉంచిన బట్టలను అప్పగించకుండాా ప్రతి బలిపీఠం దగ్గర వాటి మీద పడుకుంటారు. జుల్మానా సొమ్ముతో కొన్న ద్రాక్షమద్యాన్ని తమ దేవుని మందిరంలో తాగుతారు.
അവർ ഏതു ബലിപീഠത്തിന്നരികത്തും പണയം വാങ്ങിയ വസ്ത്രം വിരിച്ചു കിടന്നുറങ്ങുകയും പിഴ അടെച്ചവരുടെ വീഞ്ഞു തങ്ങളുടെ ദൈവത്തിന്റെ ആലയത്തിൽവെച്ചു കുടിക്കയും ചെയ്യുന്നു.
9 ౯ దేవదారు చెట్టంత ఎత్తయిన వారూ సింధూర వృక్షమంత బలమున్న అమోరీయులను వారి ముందు నిలవకుండా నేను నాశనం చేశాను గదా! పైన వారి ఫలాన్నీ కింద వారి వేరులనూ నేను నాశనం చేశాను గదా!
ഞാനോ അമോര്യനെ അവരുടെ മുമ്പിൽനിന്നു നശിപ്പിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞു; അവന്റെ ഉയരം ദേവദാരുക്കളുടെ ഉയരംപോലെയായിരുന്നു; അവൻ കരുവേലകങ്ങൾപോലെ ശക്തിയുള്ളവനുമായിരുന്നു; എങ്കിലും ഞാൻ മീതെ അവന്റെ ഫലവും താഴെ അവന്റെ വേരും നശിപ്പിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞു.
10 ౧౦ ఐగుప్తు దేశంలో నుంచి మిమ్మల్ని రప్పించి, అమోరీయుల దేశాన్ని మీకు స్వాధీనం చేయాలని నలభై ఏళ్ళు అరణ్యంలో మిమ్మల్ని నడిపించాను.
ഞാൻ നിങ്ങളെ മിസ്രയീംദേശത്തുനിന്നു പുറപ്പെടുവിച്ചു, അമോര്യന്റെ ദേശത്തെ കൈവശമാക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു നിങ്ങളെ നാല്പതു സംവത്സരം മരുഭൂമിയിൽകൂടി നടത്തി.
11 ౧౧ మీ కొడుకుల్లో ప్రవక్తలను నియమించాను. మీ యువకుల్లో నాజీరులను ఎన్నుకున్నాను. ఇశ్రాయేలీయులారా, ఇది నిజం కాదా?” యెహోవా వెల్లడించేది ఇదే.
ഞാൻ നിങ്ങളുടെ പുത്രന്മാരിൽ ചിലരെ പ്രവാചകന്മാരായും നിങ്ങളുടെ യൗവനക്കാരിൽ ചിലരെ വ്രതസ്ഥന്മാരായും എഴുന്നേല്പിച്ചു; അങ്ങനെ തന്നേ അല്ലയോ, യിസ്രായേൽമക്കളേ, എന്നു യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാടു.
എന്നാൽ നിങ്ങൾ വ്രതസ്ഥന്മാർക്കു വീഞ്ഞു കുടിപ്പാൻ കൊടുക്കയും പ്രവാചകന്മാരോടു: പ്രവചിക്കരുതു എന്നു കല്പിക്കയും ചെയ്തു.
കറ്റ കയറ്റിയ വണ്ടി അമർത്തുന്നതുപോലെ ഞാൻ നിങ്ങളെ നിങ്ങൾ ഇരിക്കുന്നിടത്തു അമർത്തിക്കളയും.
14 ౧౪ చురుకైన వారు సైతం తప్పించుకోలేరు. బలమైనవారు తమ బలాన్నిబట్టి ధైర్యం తెచ్చుకోలేకపోతారు. గొప్ప వీరుడు కూడా తన ప్రాణం కాపాడుకోలేడు.
അങ്ങനെ വേഗവാന്മാർക്കു ശരണം നശിക്കും; ബലവാന്റെ ശക്തി നിലനില്ക്കയില്ല; വീരൻ തന്റെ ജീവനെ രക്ഷിക്കയില്ല;
വില്ലാളി ഉറെച്ചുനില്ക്കയില്ല; ശീഘ്രഗാമി തന്നെത്താൻ വിടുവിക്കയില്ല, കുതിര കയറി ഓടുന്നവൻ തന്റെ ജീവനെ രക്ഷിക്കയുമില്ല.
വീരന്മാരിൽ ധൈര്യമേറിയവൻ അന്നാളിൽ നഗ്നനായി ഓടിപ്പോകും എന്നു യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാടു.
