< యెహెజ్కేలు 38 >
1 ౧ యెహోవా నాతో ఇలా చెప్పాడు.
൧യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാട് എനിക്കുണ്ടായത് എന്തെന്നാൽ:
2 ౨ నరపుత్రుడా, మాగోగు దేశపువాడైన గోగు, అంటే, రోషు, మెషెకు, తుబాలు రాజ్యాల పాలకుని వైపు తిరిగి అతని గూర్చి ప్రవచించు.
൨“മനുഷ്യപുത്രാ, രോശ്, മേശെക്, തൂബൽ എന്നിവയുടെ പ്രഭുവായി, മാഗോഗ് ദേശത്തിലുള്ള ഗോഗിന്റെ നേരെ നീ മുഖംതിരിച്ച് അവനെക്കുറിച്ചു പ്രവചിച്ചു പറയേണ്ടത്:
3 ౩ “ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చేదేమంటే, రోషు, మెషెకు, తుబాలు రాజ్యాల పాలకుడవైన గోగూ, నేను నీకు విరోధినయ్యాను.
൩‘യഹോവയായ കർത്താവ് ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: രോശ്, മേശെക്, തൂബൽ എന്നിവയുടെ പ്രഭുവായ ഗോഗേ, ഞാൻ നിനക്ക് വിരോധമായിരിക്കുന്നു.
4 ౪ నేను నిన్ను వెనక్కి తిప్పి నీ దవడలకు గాలాలు తగిలించి, నిన్నూ నీ సైన్యాన్నీ గుర్రాలనూ ఆయుధ సామగ్రి అంతటితో నీ రౌతులందరినీ కవచాలు, డాళ్లు ధరించి ఖడ్గాలు చేతపట్టుకున్న వారందనీ మహా సైన్యంగా పంపిస్తాను.
൪ഞാൻ നിന്നെ വഴിതെറ്റിച്ച്, നിന്റെ താടിയെല്ലിൽ ചൂണ്ടൽ കൊളുത്തി, നിന്നെയും നിന്റെ സകലസൈന്യത്തെയും എല്ലാ കുതിരകളെയും സർവ്വായുധം ധരിച്ച എല്ലാ കുതിരച്ചേവകരെയും വാളും പരിചയും പലകയും എടുത്ത ഒരു മഹാസമൂഹത്തെയും,
5 ౫ నీతో కూడ పర్షియా, కూషు, పూతు దేశాల వారినీ డాళ్ళు, శిరస్త్రాణాలు ధరించే వారినీ బయలుదేరదీస్తాను.
൫അവരോടുകൂടിയുള്ള പരിചയും ശിരസ്ത്രവും ധരിച്ച പാർസികൾ, കൂശ്യർ, പൂത്യർ എന്നിവരും, ഗോമെരും
6 ౬ గోమెరు, అతని సైన్యం, ఉత్తరాన ఉండే తోగర్మా, అతని సైన్యం, ఇంకా అనేకమంది జనం నీతో వస్తారు.”
൬അവന്റെ എല്ലാ പടക്കൂട്ടങ്ങളും വടക്കെ അറ്റത്തുള്ള തോഗർമ്മാഗൃഹവും അതിന്റെ എല്ലാ പടക്കൂട്ടങ്ങളും എന്നിങ്ങനെ പല ജനതകളെയും നിന്നോടുകൂടെ പുറപ്പെടുമാറാക്കും.
7 ౭ “నీవు సిద్ధంగా ఉండడమే కాక, నీతో కలిసిన ఈ సమూహమంతటిని సిద్ధపరచి వారికి నాయకత్వం వహించు.
൭ഒരുങ്ങിക്കൊള്ളുക! നീയും നിന്റെ അടുക്കൽ കൂടിയിരിക്കുന്ന നിന്റെ സമൂഹവും എല്ലാം ഒരുങ്ങിക്കൊള്ളുവിൻ! നീ അവർക്ക് മേധാവി ആയിരിക്കുക.
8 ౮ చాల రోజుల తరువాత నీకు పిలుపు వస్తుంది. వివిధ జనాల్లో చెదరిపోయి, కొన్ని సంవత్సరాల తరవాత ఖడ్గం నుండి తప్పించుకుని, ఎప్పుడూ పాడై ఉండే ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల పర్వతాల మీద నివసించడానికి మళ్ళీ సమకూడిన ప్రజల దగ్గరికి, అంటే వివిధ జనాల్లోనుండి తిరిగి వచ్చి నిర్భయంగా నివసించే వారి దగ్గరికి నీవు వెళ్తావు.
൮ഏറിയനാൾ കഴിഞ്ഞിട്ട് നീ സന്ദർശിക്കപ്പെടും; വാളിൽനിന്ന് രക്ഷപെട്ടതും, പല ജനതകളിൽനിന്ന് ശേഖരിക്കപ്പെട്ടതുമായ ഒരു രാജ്യത്തിലേക്ക് നീ അവസാനം വന്നുചേരും; നിരന്തരശൂന്യമായി കിടന്നിരുന്ന യിസ്രായേൽ പർവ്വതങ്ങളിൽ തന്നെ; എന്നാൽ അവർ ജനതകളുടെ ഇടയിൽനിന്ന് വന്ന് എല്ലാവരും നിർഭയമായി വസിക്കും.
9 ౯ గాలివాన వచ్చినట్టు, మేఘం కమ్మినట్టు నీవు ఆ దేశం మీదికి వస్తావు. నీవు, నీ సైన్యం, నీతో కలిసిన విస్తారమైన జనాలు ఆ దేశం మీద కమ్ముకుంటారు.”
൯നീ മഴക്കോൾപോലെ കയറിവരും; നീയും നിന്റെ എല്ലാ പടക്കൂട്ടങ്ങളും നിന്നോടുകൂടെയുള്ള പല ജനതകളും മേഘംപോലെ ദേശത്തെ മൂടും”.
10 ౧౦ ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చేదేమంటే, ఆ కాలంలో నీ మనస్సులో చెడు తలంపులు కలుగుతాయి.
൧൦യഹോവയായ കർത്താവ് ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “ആ നാളിൽ നിന്റെ ഹൃദയത്തിൽ ചില ചിന്തകൾ ഉത്ഭവിക്കും;
11 ౧౧ నువ్వు దురాలోచనతో ఇలా అనుకుంటావు, నేను ప్రాకారాలు, అడ్డగడియలు, ద్వారాలు లేని దేశం పైకి వెళ్తాను. విశ్రాంతిగా, నిర్భయంగా నివసించే వారి మీదికి వెళ్తాను.
൧൧നീ ഒരു ദുരുപായം നിരൂപിക്കും; ‘മതിലില്ലാത്ത ഗ്രാമങ്ങൾ ഉള്ള ദേശത്തു ഞാൻ ചെല്ലും; കൊള്ളയിടേണ്ടതിനും കവർച്ച ചെയ്യേണ്ടതിനും, ശൂന്യമായിക്കിടന്നശേഷം വീണ്ടും നിവാസികൾ ഉള്ളതായ സ്ഥലങ്ങൾക്കു നേരെയും, ജനതകളുടെ ഇടയിൽനിന്ന് ശേഖരിക്കപ്പെട്ട്, കന്നുകാലികളും ധനവും സമ്പാദിച്ച്, ഭൂമിയുടെ മദ്ധ്യത്തിൽ വസിച്ചിരിക്കുന്ന ഒരു ജനത്തിന്റെ നേരെയും കൈ നീട്ടേണ്ടതിനും
12 ౧౨ గతంలో పాడై మళ్ళీ నివాసయోగ్యమైన స్థలాల మీదికి వెళ్ళి, వారిని దోచుకుని కొల్లసొమ్ముగా పట్టుకుంటాను. వివిధ జనాల్లోనుండి తిరిగివచ్చి, పశువులు, ఆస్తులు సంపాదించి, భూమి నట్టనడుమ నివసించే ప్రజల మీదికి వెళ్తాను.
൧൨മതിലും ഓടാമ്പലും കതകും കൂടാതെ നിർഭയം വസിച്ച് സ്വൈരമായിരിക്കുന്ന എല്ലാവരുടെയും നേരെ ഞാൻ ചെല്ലും” എന്നും നീ പറയും.
13 ౧౩ సెబావారు, దదానువారు, తర్షీషు వర్తకులు, వారి యోధులందరు నిన్ను చూసి “సొమ్ము దోచుకోడానికి వచ్చావా? కొల్లగొట్టడానికీ వెండి బంగారాలు, పశువులు, సరుకులు పట్టుకుపోడానికీ సైన్యం సమకూర్చుకుని వచ్చావా?” అని అడుగుతారు.
൧൩ശെബയും ദെദാനും തർശീശിലെ വ്യാപാരികളും അതിലെ സകലബാലസിംഹങ്ങളും നിന്നോട്: ‘നീ കൊള്ളയിടുവാനോ വന്നത്? കവർച്ച ചെയ്യുവാനും വെള്ളിയും പൊന്നും എടുത്തു കൊണ്ടുപോകുവാനും കന്നുകാലികളെയും ധനത്തെയും അപഹരിക്കുവാനും ഏറ്റവും വലിയ കൊള്ള നടത്തുവാനും ആകുന്നുവോ നീ നിന്റെ സമൂഹത്തെ കൂട്ടിയിരിക്കുന്നത്’ എന്നു പറയും.
14 ౧౪ “కాబట్టి నరపుత్రుడా, గోగును గూర్చి ఇలా ప్రవచించు, ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చేదేమంటే, నా ప్రజలైన ఇశ్రాయేలీయులు నిర్భయంగా జీవించే సమయం కనిపెట్టావు కదా?
൧൪ആകയാൽ മനുഷ്യപുത്രാ, നീ പ്രവചിച്ച് ഗോഗിനോടു പറയേണ്ടത്: യഹോവയായ കർത്താവ് ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “എന്റെ ജനമായ യിസ്രായേൽ നിർഭയമായി വസിക്കുന്ന ആ നാളിൽ, നീ അത് അറിയുകയില്ലയോ?
15 ౧౫ దూరంగా ఉత్తర దిక్కునుండి నీవు, నీతోకూడ అనేకమంది ప్రజలు గుర్రాలెక్కి బహు విస్తారమైన సైన్యంతో వచ్చి
൧൫നീയും നിന്നോടുകൂടെ പല ജനതകളും, മഹാസൈന്യവും, മഹാസമൂഹമായി എല്ലാവരും കുതിരപ്പുറത്തു കയറി, നിന്റെ ദിക്കിൽനിന്ന്, വടക്കെ അറ്റത്തുനിന്നു തന്നെ, വരും.
16 ౧౬ మేఘం భూమిని కమ్మినట్లు నా ప్రజలైన ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల మీద పడతారు. చివరి రోజుల్లో అది జరుగుతుంది. గోగూ, అన్యజనాలు నన్ను తెలుసుకొనేలా నేను నా దేశం మీదికి నిన్ను రప్పించి నిన్నుబట్టి వారి ఎదుట నన్ను నేను పరిశుద్ధ పరచుకుంటాను.”
൧൬ദേശത്തെ മറയ്ക്കേണ്ടതിനുള്ള ഒരു മേഘംപോലെ നീ എന്റെ ജനമായ യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ നേരെ വരും; ഗോഗേ, അന്ത്യകാലത്ത് ജാതികളുടെ കൺമുമ്പിൽ ഞാൻ എന്നെത്തന്നെ നിന്നിൽ വിശുദ്ധീകരിക്കുമ്പോൾ അവർ എന്നെ അറിയേണ്ടതിന് ഞാൻ നിന്നെ എന്റെ ദേശത്തിന്റെ നേരെ വരുത്തും”.
17 ౧౭ ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చేదేమంటే “గతంలో ప్రతి సంవత్సరం నిన్ను వారిమీదికి రప్పిస్తానని నా సేవకులైన ప్రవక్తల ద్వారా సెలవిచ్చింది నేనే గదా?
൧൭യഹോവയായ കർത്താവ് ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “ഞാൻ നിന്നെ യിസ്രായേലിനു വിരോധമായി വരുത്തും’ എന്ന് കഴിഞ്ഞകാലത്ത്, അനേകം സംവത്സരങ്ങളായി പ്രവചിച്ചുപോന്ന അവരുടെ പ്രവാചകന്മാരായ എന്റെ ദാസന്മാർ മുഖാന്തരം ഞാൻ അന്ന് അരുളിച്ചെയ്തത് നിന്നെക്കുറിച്ചല്ലയോ?
18 ౧౮ ఆ రోజున, అంటే గోగు ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల దేశం మీదికి రాబోయే రోజున, నా కోపం విపరీతంగా మండుతుంది.” ఇదే ప్రభువైన యెహోవా వాక్కు.
൧൮യിസ്രായേൽദേശത്തിനു വിരോധമായി ഗോഗ് വരുന്ന ആ നാളിൽ, എന്റെ മുഖം ഉഗ്രകോപത്താൽ ജ്വലിക്കും” എന്ന് യഹോവയായ കർത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാട്.
19 ౧౯ “కాబట్టి నేను రోషంతో, మహా రౌద్రంతో ఈ విధంగా ప్రకటించాను, ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల దేశంలో గొప్ప భూకంపం కలుగుతుంది.
൧൯“അന്നാളിൽ നിശ്ചയമായി യിസ്രായേൽ ദേശത്ത് ഒരു വലിയ ഭൂകമ്പം ഉണ്ടാകും’ എന്ന് ഞാൻ എന്റെ തീക്ഷ്ണതയിലും എന്റെ കോപാഗ്നിയിലും അരുളിച്ചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്നു.
20 ౨౦ సముద్రపు చేపలు, ఆకాశపక్షులు, భూజంతువులు, భూమిమీద పాకే పురుగులన్నీ, భూప్రజలంతా నాకు భయపడి వణుకుతారు. పర్వతాలు నాశనమౌతాయి, కొండ శిఖరాలు కూలిపోతాయి, గోడలన్నీ నేలకూలుతాయి.
൨൦അങ്ങനെ സമുദ്രത്തിലെ മത്സ്യവും ആകാശത്തിലെ പറവയും കാട്ടിലെ മൃഗവും നിലത്തിഴയുന്ന എല്ലാ ഇഴജാതിയും ഭൂതലത്തിലെ സകലമനുഷ്യരും എന്റെ സന്നിധിയിൽ വിറയ്ക്കും; മലകൾ ഇടിഞ്ഞുപോകും; കടുന്തൂക്കായ സ്ഥലങ്ങൾ വീണുപോകും; എല്ലാ മതിലും നിലംപരിചാകും.
21 ౨౧ నా పర్వతాలన్నిటిలో అతని మీదికి ఖడ్గం వచ్చేలా చేస్తాను. ప్రతి ఒక్కరి ఖడ్గం అతని సోదరుని మీద పడుతుంది.” ఇదే ప్రభువైన యెహోవా వాక్కు.
൨൧ഞാൻ എന്റെ സകലപർവ്വതങ്ങളോടും അവന്റെനേരെ വാളെടുക്കുവാൻ കല്പിക്കും” എന്ന് യഹോവയായ കർത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാട്; ഓരോരുത്തന്റെ വാൾ അവനവന്റെ സഹോദരനു വിരോധമായിരിക്കും.
22 ౨౨ తెగులు, మరణం పంపి అతని మీదా అతని సైన్యం మీదా అతనితో ఉన్న జనాల మీదా భీకరమైన వర్షాన్నీ పెద్ద వడగండ్లనూ అగ్నిగంధకాలనూ కురిపించి అతనితో వాదిస్తాను.
൨൨ഞാൻ മഹാമാരികൊണ്ടും രക്തംകൊണ്ടും അവനെ ന്യായംവിധിക്കും; ഞാൻ അവന്റെമേലും അവന്റെ പടക്കൂട്ടങ്ങളുടെമേലും അവനോടുകൂടിയുള്ള പല ജനതകളുടെമേലും പെരുമഴയും വലിയ ആലിപ്പഴവും തീയും ഗന്ധകവും വർഷിപ്പിക്കും.
23 ౨౩ అన్యజనాలంతా నేను యెహోవానని తెలుసుకునేలా నేను నా గొప్పతనాన్ని, పరిశుద్ధతను వారి ఎదుట చూపించి నన్ను నేను హెచ్చించుకుంటాను.
൨൩ഇങ്ങനെ ഞാൻ സ്വയം മഹത്ത്വീകരിക്കുകയും സ്വയം വിശുദ്ധീകരിക്കുകയും പല ജനതകളുടെയും കൺമുമ്പിൽ എന്നെത്തന്നെ വെളിപ്പെടുത്തുകയും ചെയ്യുമ്പോൾ ഞാൻ യഹോവ എന്ന് അവർ അറിയും.
