యిర్మీయా 25

1 ౧ యోషీయా కొడుకూ, యూదా రాజు అయిన యెహోయాకీము నాలుగో సంవత్సరం పాలనలో, అంటే బబులోను రాజు నెబుకద్నెజరు మొదటి సంవత్సరంలో యూదా ప్రజలందరి గురించి యిర్మీయాకు వచ్చిన సందేశం.

യെഹൂദാരാജാവായ യോശിയാവിന്റെ മകനായ യെഹോയാക്കീമിന്റെ നാലാമാണ്ടിൽ, ബാബേൽരാജാവായ നെബൂഖദ്നേസരിന്റെ ഒന്നാമാണ്ടിൽത്തന്നെ, എല്ലാ യെഹൂദാജനത്തെയുംപറ്റി യിരെമ്യാവിനുണ്ടായ അരുളപ്പാട്:

2 ౨ ప్రవక్త యిర్మీయా యూదా ప్రజలందరితో, యెరూషలేము నివాసులందరితో ఆ సందేశాన్ని ప్రకటించాడు.

അങ്ങനെ യിരെമ്യാപ്രവാചകൻ അത് എല്ലാ യെഹൂദാജനത്തോടും ജെറുശലേംനിവാസികളായ എല്ലാവരോടും അറിയിച്ചത് ഇപ്രകാരമായിരുന്നു:

3 ౩ “ఆమోను కొడుకు యూదా రాజు యోషీయా పాలించిన 13 వ సంవత్సరం మొదలు నేటివరకూ ఈ 23 సంవత్సరాలు యెహోవా నాకు సందేశం ఇస్తూ ఉన్నాడు. నేను పెందలకడ లేచి మీకు ఆ మాటలు ప్రకటిస్తూ ఉన్నప్పటికీ మీరు పెడచెవిన పెట్టారు.

യെഹൂദാരാജാവായ ആമോന്റെ മകൻ യോശിയാവിന്റെ പതിമ്മൂന്നാംവർഷംമുതൽ ഇന്നുവരെയുള്ള ഈ ഇരുപത്തിമൂന്നു വർഷക്കാലവും യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാട് എനിക്കുണ്ടാകുകയും ഞാൻ അതു വീണ്ടും വീണ്ടും നിങ്ങളോടു സംസാരിക്കുകയും ചെയ്തു, എന്നാൽ നിങ്ങൾ അതു ശ്രദ്ധിച്ചതേയില്ല.

4 ౪ యెహోవా మీ దగ్గరికి తన సేవకులైన ప్రవక్తలను పంపించాడు. మీరు వారి మాట వినలేదు, వారిపట్ల శ్రద్ధ చూపలేదు.

യഹോവ തന്റെ ദാസന്മാരായ എല്ലാ പ്രവാചകന്മാരെയും വീണ്ടും വീണ്ടും നിങ്ങളുടെ അടുക്കൽ അയച്ചു; എന്നാൽ നിങ്ങൾ ശ്രദ്ധിക്കുകയോ കേൾക്കാൻ ചെവിചായ്‌ക്കുകയോ ചെയ്തില്ല.

5 ౫ ఈ ప్రవక్తలు ఇలా చెప్పారు, ‘మీలో ప్రతి ఒక్కరూ మీ దుర్మార్గం, దురాచారాల నుంచి మళ్ళుకోండి. యెహోవా మీకూ, మీ పూర్వీకులకూ శాశ్వతమైన బహుమానంగా దయచేసిన ఈ దేశంలో మీరు నివసించేలా చేసుకోండి.

“നിങ്ങളിൽ ഓരോരുത്തരും നിങ്ങളുടെ ദുഷിച്ചവഴികളിൽനിന്നും ദുരാചാരങ്ങളിൽനിന്നും തിരിയുക. അപ്പോൾ യഹോവ നിങ്ങൾക്കും നിങ്ങളുടെ പിതാക്കന്മാർക്കും എന്നെന്നേക്കുമായി നൽകിയിട്ടുള്ള ദേശത്തു നിങ്ങൾക്കു വസിക്കാൻ കഴിയും.

6 ౬ మీరు ఇతర దేవుళ్ళను పూజించడం, వాటికి నమస్కారం చేయడం మానండి. మీ చేతులతో చేసిన వాటితో నన్ను విసికించవద్దు. అప్పుడు ఆయన మీకు ఏ బాధా కలిగించడు.’

അന്യദേവതകളെ സേവിക്കാനോ ആരാധിക്കാനോ അവയുടെ പിന്നാലെ പോകരുത്. നിങ്ങളുടെ കൈകളുടെ നിർമിതികൊണ്ട് എന്നെ പ്രകോപിപ്പിക്കുകയുമരുത്. എന്നാൽ ഞാൻ നിങ്ങൾക്ക് ഒരു അനർഥവും വരുത്തുകയില്ല,” എന്നിങ്ങനെ അവർ നിങ്ങളോടു പറഞ്ഞു.

7 ౭ అయితే మీరు నా మాట వినలేదు. మీ చేతులతో చేసుకున్న వాటి మూలంగా నేను మిమ్మల్ని శిక్షించేలా నన్ను రెచ్చగొట్టారు” అని యెహోవా చెబుతున్నాడు.

“എന്നാൽ നിങ്ങൾ എന്റെ വാക്കു കേട്ടനുസരിച്ചില്ല, നിങ്ങളുടെതന്നെ ദോഷത്തിനായി നിങ്ങളുടെ കൈകളുടെ പ്രവൃത്തികൾകൊണ്ട് എന്നെ കോപിപ്പിക്കുന്നതിനുവേണ്ടി നിങ്ങൾ അപ്രകാരംചെയ്തു,” എന്ന് യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.

8 ౮ సేనల ప్రభువు యెహోవా ఇలా చెబుతున్నాడు. “మీరు నా మాటలు వినలేదు కాబట్టి నేను ఉత్తర దిక్కున ఉన్న రాజ్యాలన్నిటినీ నా సేవకుడు నెబుకద్నెజరు అనే బబులోను రాజునూ పిలిపిస్తున్నాను.

അതിനാൽ സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “നിങ്ങൾ എന്റെ വചനം അനുസരിക്കാതിരിക്കുക നിമിത്തം,

9 ౯ ఈ దేశం మీదికి, దీని నివాసుల మీదికి, చుట్టూ ఉన్న ఈ ప్రజలందరి మీదికీ వారిని రప్పిస్తున్నాను. ఈ ప్రజలను నాశనం చేస్తాను. వాళ్ళను అసహ్యకారణంగా, అపహాస్యంగా ఎప్పటికి పాడుగా ఉంచుతాను.

വടക്കുള്ള എല്ലാ ജനതകളെയും എന്റെ ദാസനായ ബാബേൽരാജാവായ നെബൂഖദ്നേസരിനെയും ഈ ദേശത്തിന്റെ നേരേയും അതിലെ നിവാസികളുടെ നേരേയും ചുറ്റുപാടുമുള്ള എല്ലാ രാജ്യങ്ങളുടെ നേരേയും അയച്ചിട്ട്, അവരെ നിശ്ശേഷം നശിപ്പിച്ചുകളയും. ഞാൻ അവരെ ഒരു സ്തംഭനവിഷയവും പരിഹാസവും നിത്യശൂന്യതയുമാക്കിത്തീർക്കും,” എന്ന് യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.

10 ౧౦ సంతోషసంబరాల ధ్వనులూ, పెళ్ళికొడుకు పెళ్ళికూతురు స్వరాలూ, తిరుగటిరాళ్ల శబ్దం, దీపాల వెలుగూ వారిలో ఉండకుండా చేస్తాను.

“മാത്രമല്ല, ഞാൻ ആഹ്ലാദാരവവും ആനന്ദധ്വനിയും മണവാളന്റെ സ്വരവും മണവാട്ടിയുടെ സ്വരവും തിരികല്ലിന്റെ ശബ്ദവും വിളക്കിന്റെ വെളിച്ചവും അവരുടെ ഇടയിൽനിന്ന് നീക്കിക്കളയും.

11 ౧౧ ఈ దేశమంతా పాడైపోతుంది. శిథిలమైపోతుంది. ఈ ప్రజలు 70 సంవత్సరాలు బబులోను రాజుకు సేవ చేస్తారు.

ഈ ദേശമൊന്നാകെ ശൂന്യതയും ഭീതിവിഷയവുമായിത്തീരും. ഈ ജനതകൾ ബാബേൽരാജാവിനെ എഴുപതുവർഷം സേവിക്കും എന്ന് യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാട്.

12 ౧౨ డెబ్భై సంవత్సరాలు గడచిన తరువాత వారి దోషాలనుబట్టి నేను బబులోను రాజును, ఆ ప్రజలను, కల్దీయుల దేశాన్ని శిక్షిస్తాను. ఆ దేశాన్ని ఎప్పటికీ శిథిలంగా ఉండేలా చేస్తాను.” ఇది యెహోవా వాక్కు.

“എന്നാൽ ആ എഴുപതുവർഷം തികയുമ്പോൾ ഞാൻ ബാബേൽരാജാവിനെയും ആ ജനതയെയും ബാബേൽദേശത്തെയും അവരുടെ അകൃത്യം നിമിത്തം ശിക്ഷിക്കും. ഞാൻ അതിനെ എന്നെന്നേക്കും ഒരു ശൂന്യദേശമാക്കിത്തീർക്കും,” എന്ന് യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.

13 ౧౩ నేను ఆ దేశానికి వ్యతిరేకంగా చెప్పిన మాటలన్నిటి ప్రకారం, రాజ్యాలన్నిటి గురించి ఈ గ్రంథంలో రాసినదంతా యిర్మీయా ప్రవచించినట్టు ఆ దేశం మీదికి రప్పిస్తాను.

“അതിനെതിരേ ഞാൻ പ്രസ്താവിച്ചിട്ടുള്ള എല്ലാ വചനങ്ങളും യിരെമ്യാപ്രവാചകൻ എല്ലാ രാഷ്ട്രങ്ങൾക്കുമെതിരെ പ്രവചിച്ചിട്ടുള്ളതായി ഈ പുസ്തകത്തിൽ രേഖപ്പെടുത്തിയിട്ടുള്ള സകലവചനങ്ങളും ഞാൻ ആ ദേശത്തിന്റെമേൽ വരുത്തും.

14 ౧౪ ఎందుకంటే నేను వాళ్ళ పనులకూ వాళ్ళు చేతులతో చేసిన వాటికీ ప్రతీకారం చేస్తాను. అనేక రాజ్యాలూ, గొప్ప రాజులూ వాళ్ళ చేత సేవ చేయించుకుంటారు.

അനേകം രാഷ്ട്രങ്ങളും മഹാന്മാരായ രാജാക്കന്മാരും അവരെ അടിമകളാക്കിത്തീർക്കും; ഞാൻ അവരുടെ കർമങ്ങൾക്കും അവരുടെ കൈകളുടെ പ്രവൃത്തികൾക്കും തക്കവണ്ണം അവർക്കു പകരംചെയ്യും.”

15 ౧౫ ఇశ్రాయేలు దేవుడు, యెహోవా నాతో ఇలా చెప్పాడు. “కోపంతో నిండి ఉన్న మద్యపాత్రను నువ్వు నా చేతిలోనుంచి తీసుకుని, నేను నిన్ను పంపిస్తున్న రాజ్యాలన్నిటికీ దాన్ని తాగించు.

ഇസ്രായേലിന്റെ ദൈവമായ യഹോവ എന്നോട് അരുളിച്ചെയ്തത് ഇപ്രകാരമാണ്: “എന്റെ ക്രോധമദ്യം അടങ്ങിയ ഈ പാനപാത്രം എന്റെ കൈയിൽനിന്നു വാങ്ങി, ഞാൻ ഏതെല്ലാം ജനതകളുടെ മധ്യത്തിലേക്കു നിന്നെ അയയ്ക്കുന്നുവോ അവരെയെല്ലാം അതു കുടിപ്പിക്കുക.

16 ౧౬ వాళ్ళు దాన్ని తాగి, తూలుతూ పిచ్చివాళ్ళలాగా అయిపోతారు. నేను వాళ్ళ మీదకు పంపిస్తున్న కత్తిని బట్టి వాళ్ళు అలా అవుతారు.”

അവർ അതു കുടിക്കുകയും ഞാൻ അവരുടെ ഇടയിലേക്ക് അയയ്ക്കുന്ന വാൾനിമിത്തം ചാഞ്ചാടി ഭ്രാന്തരായിത്തീരുകയും ചെയ്യും.”

17 ౧౭ అప్పుడు యెహోవా చేతిలో నుంచి నేను ఆ పాత్రను తీసుకుని, యెహోవా నన్ను పంపిన రాజ్యాలన్నిటికీ దాన్ని తాగించాను.

അപ്പോൾ ഞാൻ യഹോവയുടെ കൈയിൽനിന്ന് ആ പാനപാത്രം വാങ്ങി യഹോവ എന്നെ അയച്ച എല്ലാ ജനതകളെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു:

18 ౧౮ వాళ్ళు ఈ రోజు ఉన్నట్టుగా అసహ్యకారణంగా, అపహాస్యంగా ఎప్పటికి పాడుగా ఉండడానికి యెరూషలేముకూ యూదా పట్టణాలకూ దాని గొప్ప రాజులకూ దాని అధిపతులకూ తాగించాను.

ജെറുശലേം, യെഹൂദാപട്ടണങ്ങൾ, രാജാക്കന്മാർ, പ്രഭുക്കന്മാർ ഇവരെല്ലാം ഇന്ന് ആയിരിക്കുന്നതുപോലെ ഒരു ശൂന്യതയും ഭീതിവിഷയവും പരിഹാസവും ശാപവും ആയിത്തീരേണ്ടതിന് അവരെ കുടിപ്പിച്ചു;

19 ౧౯ మిగతా రాజ్యాలు కూడా తాగాల్సి వచ్చింది. ఐగుప్తురాజు ఫరో, అతని సేవకులూ అతని అధికారులూ అతని పరివారమంతా,

ഈജിപ്റ്റ് രാജാവായ ഫറവോൻ, അവന്റെ ഭൃത്യന്മാർ, പ്രഭുക്കന്മാർ ഇവരെയും, അവന്റെ സകലജനത്തെയും

20 ౨౦ అక్కడ ఉన్న మిశ్రిత ప్రజలూ, ఊజు దేశపు రాజులందరూ, ఫిలిష్తీయుల దేశపు రాజులందరూ, అష్కెలోను, గాజా, ఎక్రోను, అష్డోదులో మిగిలిన వాళ్ళూ,

അവിടെയുള്ള എല്ലാ വിദേശജനതകളെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു; ഊസ് ദേശത്തിലെ സകലരാജാക്കന്മാരെയും അസ്കലോൻ, ഗസ്സാ, എക്രോൻ എന്നീ ഫെലിസ്ത്യദേശങ്ങളിലെ എല്ലാ രാജാക്കന്മാരെയും, അശ്ദോദിൽ ശേഷിക്കുന്ന ജനത്തെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു;

21 ౨౧ ఎదోమీయులు, మోయాబీయులు, అమ్మోనీయులు దానిలోనిది తాగుతారు.

ഏദോമിനെയും മോവാബിനെയും അമ്മോന്യരെയും;

22 ౨౨ ఇంకా తూరు రాజులందరూ, సీదోను రాజులందరూ, సముద్రానికి అవతలి తీరాల రాజులూ,

സോർദേശത്തിലെയും സീദോൻദേശത്തിലെയും എല്ലാ രാജാക്കന്മാരെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു; സമുദ്രത്തിനക്കരെയുള്ള തീരദേശങ്ങളിലെ രാജാക്കന്മാരെയും;

23 ౨౩ దదానీయులు, తేమానీయులు, బూజీయులు, గడ్డపు పక్కల కత్తిరించుకున్నవాళ్ళు,

ദേദാനെയും തേമായെയും ബൂസിനെയും തലയുടെ അരികു വടിക്കുന്നവരെ ഒക്കെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു;

24 ౨౪ అరేబియా దేశపు రాజులందరూ, ఎడారిలో ఉంటున్న మిశ్రిత ప్రజల రాజులందరూ,

അറേബ്യയിലെ എല്ലാ രാജാക്കന്മാരെയും മരുഭൂമിയിലുള്ള വിദേശരാജാക്കന്മാരെയും

25 ౨౫ జిమ్రీ రాజులందరూ, ఏలాము రాజులందరూ, మాదీయుల రాజులందరూ,

സകലസിമ്രിരാജാക്കന്മാരെയും ഏലാമിലെയും മേദ്യയിലെയും സകലരാജാക്കന്മാരെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു;

26 ౨౬ ఉత్తర దిక్కున దగ్గరగా, దూరంగా ఉన్న రాజులందరూ, భూమి మీద ఉన్న ప్రపంచ రాజ్యాలన్నీ దానిలోనిది తాగుతారు. చివరిగా బబులోను రాజు వాళ్ళ తరువాత తాగుతాడు.

ഉത്തരദേശത്ത് അടുത്തും അകലെയുമുള്ള എല്ലാ രാജാക്കന്മാരെയും ഭൂമിയിലെ സകലലോകരാജാക്കന്മാരെയും കുടിപ്പിച്ചു; അവർക്കെല്ലാംശേഷം ശേശക്കുരാജാവും അതു കുടിക്കണം.

27 ౨౭ నువ్వు వాళ్ళతో ఇలా చెప్పు. “ఇశ్రాయేలు దేవుడు సేనల అధిపతి యెహోవా ఇలా చెబుతున్నాడు, తాగండి! మత్తేక్కే వరకు తాగి, కక్కండి. నేను మీ మీదికి పంపించే కత్తి ఎదుట మళ్ళీ లేవకుండా కూలండి.”

“നീ അവരോട് ഇപ്രകാരം പറയണം: ‘ഇസ്രായേലിന്റെ ദൈവമായ സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: കുടിക്കുക, മദോന്മത്തരായി ഛർദിക്കുക; ഞാൻ നിങ്ങളുടെ ഇടയിലേക്ക് അയയ്ക്കുന്ന വാൾനിമിത്തം പിന്നീട് എഴുന്നേൽക്കാതിരിക്കുംവിധം വീഴുക.’

28 ౨౮ మేము తాగమని వాళ్ళు నీ చేతిలో నుంచి ఆ పాత్రను తీసుకోకపోతే నువ్వు వాళ్ళతో ఇలా చెప్పు, మీరు తప్పకుండా దాన్ని తాగాలని సేనల అధిపతి యెహోవా చెబుతున్నాడు.

എന്നാൽ അവർ നിന്റെ കൈയിൽനിന്നു പാനപാത്രം വാങ്ങിക്കുടിക്കാൻ വിസമ്മതിക്കുന്നെങ്കിൽ നീ അവരോട് ഇപ്രകാരം പറയണം, ‘സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: നിങ്ങൾ ഇതു കുടിച്ചേ മതിയാവൂ!

29 ౨౯ నా పేరున్న పట్టణానికి నేను విపత్తు రప్పించబోతున్నాను. మీకు శిక్ష లేకుండా పోతుందా? మీరు తప్పించుకోలేరు. భూమి మీద ఉంటున్న వారందరి మీదికి నేను కత్తిని రప్పిస్తున్నాను. ఇది సేనల ప్రభువు యెహోవా వాక్కు.

ഇതാ, എന്റെ നാമം വഹിക്കുന്ന ഈ നഗരത്തിന്മേൽ ഞാൻ നാശം വരുത്താൻപോകുന്നു; പിന്നെ നിങ്ങൾ ശിക്ഷ കൂടാതെ ഒഴിഞ്ഞുപോകുമോ? നിങ്ങൾ ശിക്ഷയിൽനിന്ന് ഒഴിഞ്ഞുപോകുകയില്ല. ഞാൻ സകലഭൂവാസികളുടെമേലും ഒരു വാളിനെ അയയ്ക്കും എന്നു സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.’

30 ౩౦ కాబట్టి యిర్మీయా! నువ్వు ఈ మాటలన్నీ వారికి ప్రకటించు. వారికిలా చెప్పు “యెహోవా పైనుంచి గర్జిస్తున్నాడు. తన పవిత్ర నివాసం నుంచి తన స్వరాన్ని వినిపిస్తున్నాడు. తన నివాస స్థలానికి విరోధంగా గర్జిస్తున్నాడు. దేశంలో నివసిస్తున్న వారందరికీ వ్యతిరేకంగా కేకలు వేస్తున్నాడు. ద్రాక్షగానుగ తొక్కే వారిలాగా అరుస్తున్నాడు.

“അതുകൊണ്ട് നീ അവർക്കെതിരായി ഈ വചനങ്ങളൊക്കെയും പ്രവചിച്ച് അവരോടു പറയുക: “‘യഹോവ ഉന്നതത്തിൽനിന്ന് ഗർജിക്കുന്നു; അവിടന്നു തന്റെ വിശുദ്ധനിവാസത്തിൽനിന്ന് ഇടിമുഴക്കുകയും, തന്റെ ദേശത്തിനെതിരേ ഉച്ചത്തിൽ ഗർജിക്കുകയുംചെയ്യുന്നു. മുന്തിരിച്ചക്കു ചവിട്ടുന്നവരെപ്പോലെ അവിടന്ന് അലറുന്നു, സകലഭൂവാസികളുടെയുംനേരേ അട്ടഹസിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു.

31 ౩౧ ప్రపంచమంతా ఆ సందడి చేరింది. యెహోవా రాజ్యాలతో నేరారోపణ చేస్తున్నాడు. మనుషులందరికీ ఆయన తీర్పు తీరుస్తాడు. ఆయన దుర్మార్గులను కత్తికి గురిచేస్తాడు.” ఇది యెహోవా వాక్కు.

യഹോവ രാഷ്ട്രങ്ങൾക്കെതിരേ കുറ്റം ആരോപിക്കുന്നതിനാൽ ആരവം ഭൂമിയുടെ അതിരുകൾവരെയും പ്രതിധ്വനിക്കുന്നു, അവിടന്നു സകലമനുഷ്യരുടെമേലും ന്യായവിധി അയയ്ക്കുകയും ദുഷ്ടരെ വാളിന് ഏൽപ്പിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു,’” എന്ന് യഹോവ അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു.

32 ౩౨ సేనల ప్రభువు యెహోవా ఇలా చెబుతున్నాడు. “ఒక రాజ్యం నుంచి మరొక రాజ్యానికి విపత్తు వ్యాపిస్తూ ఉంది. భూదిగంతాల నుంచి గొప్ప తుఫాను బయలుదేరుతూ ఉంది.

സൈന്യങ്ങളുടെ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: “ഇതാ! അനർഥം രാഷ്ട്രത്തിൽനിന്നു രാഷ്ട്രത്തിലേക്ക് വ്യാപിക്കുന്നു. ഭൂമിയുടെ അറുതികളിൽനിന്ന് ഒരു വലിയ കൊടുങ്കാറ്റ് പൊട്ടിപ്പുറപ്പെടുന്നു.”

33 ౩౩ ఆ రోజు యెహోవా చేత హతం అయిన వాళ్ళు భూమి ఒక అంచు నుంచి మరొక అంచు వరకూ ఉంటారు. వాళ్ళ కోసం ఎవరూ ఏడవరు. వాళ్ళను పోగుచేయరు. పాతిపెట్టరు. పెంటలాగా వారి శవాలు నేల మీద పడి ఉంటాయి.

ആ ദിവസത്തിൽ യഹോവയാൽ സംഹരിക്കപ്പെടുന്നവർ ഭൂമിയുടെ ഒരറ്റംമുതൽ മറ്റേ അറ്റംവരെ എല്ലായിടത്തും വീണുകിടക്കും. അവരെക്കുറിച്ച് ആരും വിലപിക്കുകയില്ല. അവരെ ശേഖരിക്കുകയോ കുഴിച്ചിടുകയോ ചെയ്യുകയില്ല, എന്നാൽ അവർ നിലത്തിനു വളം എന്നപോലെ ആയിത്തീരും.

34 ౩౪ కాపరులారా, ఏడవండి. సాయం కోసం కేకలు పెట్టండి. మందలోని నాయకులారా, నేల మీద పడి దొర్లండి. మీరు చావడానికి రోజులు దగ్గరపడ్డాయి. మీరు చెదిరిపోయే రోజు వచ్చింది. ఎంపిక చేసిన గొర్రె పొట్టేళ్ళు కింద పడినట్టు మీరు పడతారు.

ഇടയന്മാരേ, കരയുകയും വിലപിക്കുകയുംചെയ്യുക; ആട്ടിൻപറ്റത്തിന്റെ അധിപതികളേ, ചാരത്തിൽക്കിടന്ന് ഉരുളുക. കാരണം നിങ്ങളെ കശാപ്പുചെയ്ത് എറിഞ്ഞുകളയുന്ന ദിവസം വന്നിരിക്കുന്നു; നല്ലൊരു ആട്ടുകൊറ്റൻ വീഴുംപോലെ നീയും വീഴും.

35 ౩౫ కాపరులకు దాక్కునే చోటు ఉండదు. మందలోని శ్రేష్ఠమైన వాటికి దాక్కునే చోటు లేదు.

ഇടയന്മാർക്ക് ഓടിപ്പോകാൻ വഴിയില്ലാതാകും, ആട്ടിൻപറ്റത്തിന്റെ നേതാക്കന്മാർക്കു രക്ഷപ്പെടാൻ മാർഗമുണ്ടാകുകയില്ല.

36 ౩౬ వినండి, కాపరుల కేకలూ, మందలోని శ్రేష్ఠమైన వాటి గోల వినిపిస్తూ ఉంది. యెహోవా వాళ్ళ పచ్చిక మైదానాలను నాశనం చేస్తున్నాడు.

യഹോവ അവരുടെ ആട്ടിൻപറ്റത്തെ നശിപ്പിച്ചുകളയുന്നതിനാൽ ഇടയന്മാരുടെ നിലവിളിയും ആട്ടിൻപറ്റത്തിന്റെ നേതാക്കന്മാരുടെ വിലാപവും കേൾക്കുക.

37 ౩౭ ప్రశాంతంగా ఉన్న మైదానాలు యెహోవా కోపాగ్నికి పాడైపోతున్నాయి.

യഹോവയുടെ ഉഗ്രകോപംനിമിത്തം സമാധാനത്തോടിരുന്ന മേച്ചിൽപ്പുറങ്ങൾ വിജനമാക്കപ്പെടും.

38 ౩౮ గుహలోనుంచి కొదమ సింహం వచ్చినట్టు ఆయన బయలుదేరాడు. ఎందుకంటే వాళ్ళ దేశం ఆయన కోపాగ్నికి నాశనమైపోతుంది.”

സിംഹക്കുട്ടി ഒളിവിടത്തുനിന്നു പുറത്തുവരുന്നതുപോലെ, അവരുടെ ദേശം വിജനമായിത്തീരും, പീഡകന്റെ വാൾകൊണ്ടും യഹോവയുടെ ഉഗ്രകോപംകൊണ്ടുംതന്നെ.
