< యోబు~ గ్రంథము 37 >
1 ౧ దీన్ని బట్టి నా హృదయం వణకుతున్నది. దాని చోటి నుండి అది కదలి పోతున్నది.
൧ഇതിനാൽ എന്റെ ഹൃദയം വിറച്ച് അതിന്റെ സ്ഥലത്തുനിന്ന് പാളിപ്പോകുന്നു.
2 ౨ దేవుని స్వర గర్జనం వినండి. ఆయన నోటి నుండి వెలువడే శబ్దం వినండి.
൨ദൈവത്തിന്റെ ശബ്ദത്തിന്റെ മുഴക്കവും അവിടുത്തെ വായിൽനിന്ന് പുറപ്പെടുന്ന ഗർജ്ജനവും ശ്രദ്ധിച്ചുകേൾക്കുവിൻ.
3 ౩ ఆకాశ వైశాల్యమంతటి కింద ఆయన దాన్ని వినిపిస్తాడు. భూమి కొనల దాకా తన మెరుపును పంపిస్తాడు.
൩അവിടുന്ന് അത് ആകാശത്തിൻ കീഴിൽ എല്ലായിടത്തും അതിന്റെ മിന്നൽ ഭൂമിയുടെ അറ്റത്തോളവും അയയ്ക്കുന്നു.
4 ౪ దాని తరువాత గొప్ప స్వరం గర్జిస్తుంది. ఆయన తన గంభీరమైన స్వరంతో సింహనాదం చేస్తాడు. ఆయన ధ్వని వినబడేటప్పుడు ఆయన మెరుపును అడ్డగించడు.
൪അതിന്റശേഷം ഒരു മുഴക്കം കേൾക്കുന്നു; അവിടുന്ന് തന്റെ മഹിമാനാദംകൊണ്ട് ഇടിമുഴക്കുന്നു; അവിടുത്തെ നാദം കേൾക്കുമ്പോൾ അതിനെ നിയന്ത്രിക്കുന്നില്ല.
5 ౫ దేవుడు ఆశ్చర్యంగా ఉరుము ధ్వని చేస్తాడు. మనం గ్రహించలేని గొప్ప కార్యాలు ఆయన చేస్తాడు.
൫ദൈവം തന്റെ ശബ്ദം അതിശയകരമായി മുഴക്കുന്നു; നമുക്ക് ഗ്രഹിച്ചുകൂടാത്ത മഹാകാര്യങ്ങൾ ചെയ്യുന്നു.
6 ౬ నువ్వు భూమి మీద పడమని మంచుకు, వర్షానికి, జడివానకు ఆయన ఆజ్ఞ ఇస్తున్నాడు.
൬അവിടുന്ന് ഹിമത്തോട്: “ഭൂമിയിൽ പെയ്യുക” എന്ന് കല്പിക്കുന്നു; അവിടുന്ന് മഴയോടും വമ്പിച്ച പെരുമഴയോടും കല്പിക്കുന്നു.
7 ౭ మనుషులందరూ ఆయన సృష్టికార్యాన్ని తెలుసుకునేలా ఆయన ప్రతి మనిషి చేతిని బిగించి ముద్ర వేశాడు.
൭താൻ സൃഷ്ടിച്ച മനുഷ്യരെല്ലാം അവിടുത്തെ പ്രവൃത്തി അറിയുവാൻ വേണ്ടി അവിടുന്ന് സകലമനുഷ്യരുടെയും കൈ മുദ്രയിടുന്നു.
8 ౮ జంతువులు వాటి గుహల్లో దూరి దాక్కుంటాయి.
൮കാട്ടുമൃഗം ഒളിസ്ഥലത്ത് ചെല്ലുകയും തന്റെ ഗുഹയിൽ കിടക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്നു.
9 ౯ దక్షిణాన తుఫాను దాని ఆవాసం నుండి వస్తుంది. ఉత్తర దిక్కు నుండి చెదరగొట్టే చలి గాలులు వీస్తాయి.
൯ദക്ഷിണമണ്ഡലത്തിൽനിന്ന് കൊടുങ്കാറ്റും ഉത്തരദിക്കിൽനിന്ന് കുളിരും വരുന്നു.
10 ౧౦ దేవుని ఊపిరి వలన మంచు పుడుతుంది. జల విశాలమంతా ఘనీభవిస్తుంది.
൧൦ദൈവത്തിന്റെ ശ്വാസംകൊണ്ട് മഞ്ഞുകട്ട ഉളവാകുന്നു; വെള്ളങ്ങളുടെ ഉപാരിതലം ലോഹം പോലെ ഉറയ്ക്കുന്നു.
11 ౧౧ ఆయన దట్టమైన మేఘాన్ని జలంతో నింపుతాడు. తన మెరుపుల మేఘాన్ని వ్యాపింపజేస్తాడు.
൧൧അവിടുന്ന് കാർമേഘത്തെ ഈർപ്പം കൊണ്ട് കനപ്പിക്കുന്നു; തന്റെ മിന്നലുള്ള മേഘത്തെ പരത്തുന്നു.
12 ౧౨ ఆయన పంపించగా మనుషులకు నివాసయోగ్యమైన భూగోళం మీద మెరుపు, మేఘాలు సంచారం చేస్తాయి. ఆయన వాటికి ఆజ్ఞాపించేది అంతా అవి నెరవేరుస్తాయి.
൧൨അവിടുന്ന് അവയോട് കല്പിക്കുന്നതെല്ലാം ഭൂമിയുടെ ഉപരിഭാഗത്ത് ചെയ്യേണ്ടതിന് അവിടുത്തെ നിർദ്ദേശപ്രകാരം അവ ചുറ്റി സഞ്ചരിക്കുന്നു.
13 ౧౩ ఇదంతా ఆయన శిక్ష కోసం గాని, తన భూలోకం కోసం గాని కృపా భరితమైన నమ్మకత్వం కోసం గాని నెరవేరుస్తాడు.
൧൩ശിക്ഷയ്ക്കായിട്ടോ ദേശത്തിന്റെ നന്മയ്ക്കായിട്ടോ ദയയ്ക്കായിട്ടോ അവിടുന്ന് അത് വരുത്തുന്നു.
14 ౧౪ యోబు, ఈ మాట ఆలకించు. మౌనం వహించి దేవుని అద్భుత క్రియలను ఆలోచించు.
൧൪ഇയ്യോബേ, ഇത് ശ്രദ്ധിച്ചുകൊള്ളുക; മിണ്ടാതിരുന്ന് ദൈവത്തിന്റെ അത്ഭുതങ്ങളെ ചിന്തിച്ചുകൊള്ളുക.
15 ౧౫ దేవుడు తన మేఘం మెరుపు ప్రకాశించాలని ఎలా తీర్మానం చేస్తాడో నీకు తెలుసా?
൧൫ദൈവം അവയ്ക്ക് കല്പന കൊടുക്കുന്നതും തന്റെ മേഘത്തിലെ മിന്നൽ പ്രകാശിപ്പിക്കുന്നതും എങ്ങനെ എന്ന് നീ അറിയുന്നുവോ?
16 ౧౬ మేఘాలను తేలజేయడం పరిపూర్ణ జ్ఞానం గలవాడి మహా కార్యమని నీకు తెలుసా?
൧൬മേഘങ്ങൾ എങ്ങനെ ആകശത്തിൽ പൊങ്ങി ഒഴുകുന്നു എന്നും ജ്ഞാനസമ്പൂർണ്ണനായവന്റെ അത്ഭുതങ്ങളും നീ അറിയുന്നുവോ?
17 ౧౭ దక్షిణపుగాలి వీయడం వలన ఉక్క పోసేటప్పుడు నీ బట్టలు ఎలా వెచ్చబడ్డాయో నీకు తెలుసా?
൧൭തെന്നിക്കാറ്റുകൊണ്ട് ഭൂമി അനങ്ങാതിരിക്കുമ്പോൾ നിന്റെ വസ്ത്രത്തിന് ചൂടുണ്ടാകുന്നത് എങ്ങനെ?
18 ౧౮ పోత పోసిన అద్దమంత దట్టమైన ఆకాశాన్ని ఆయన వ్యాపింపజేసినట్టు నువ్వు వ్యాపింపజేయగలవా?
൧൮ലോഹദർപ്പണംപോലെ ഉറപ്പുള്ള ആകാശത്തെ നിനക്ക് ദൈവത്തോടുകൂടി നിവർത്തി വെക്കാമോ?
19 ౧౯ మేము ఆయనతో ఏమి పలకాలో అది మాకు నేర్పు. మా మనసుల్లో చీకటి వల్ల మా వాదాలు ఎలా వినిపించాలో తోచడం లేదు.
൧൯അവിടുത്തോട് എന്ത് പറയണമെന്ന് ഞങ്ങൾക്ക് ഉപദേശിച്ചു തരുക; മനസ്സിന്റെ അന്ധകാരം നിമിത്തം ഞങ്ങൾക്ക് ഒന്നും പ്രസ്താവിക്കുവാൻ കഴിവില്ല.
20 ౨౦ నేను పలుకుతానని ఎవరైనా ఆయనతో చెప్పవచ్చా? ఎవరైనా తాను నాశనమై పోవాలని కోరతాడా?
൨൦എനിക്ക് സംസാരിക്കണം എന്ന് അവിടുത്തോട് ബോധിപ്പിക്കണമോ? നാശത്തിന് ഇരയായയിത്തീരുവാൻ ആരെങ്കിലും ഇച്ഛിക്കുമോ?
21 ౨౧ ఎత్తుగా ఉన్న మేఘంలో ప్రకాశించే ఎండ ఇప్పుడు కనబడకపోయినా గాలి మేఘాలను పోగొట్టి దాన్ని తేటగా కనపరుస్తుంది.
൨൧ഇപ്പോൾ ആകാശത്തിൽ വെളിച്ചം ശോഭിക്കുന്നത് കാണുന്നില്ല; എങ്കിലും കാറ്റ് കടന്നുപോയി അതിനെ തെളിവാക്കുന്നു.
22 ౨౨ ఉత్తర దిక్కున బంగారు కాంతి పుడుతుంది. దేవుడు భీకరమైన మహిమను ధరించుకుని ఉన్నాడు.
൨൨വടക്കുനിന്ന് സ്വർണ്ണശോഭപോലെ വരുന്നു; ദൈവത്തിന്റെ ചുറ്റും ഭയങ്കര തേജസ്സുണ്ട്.
23 ౨౩ సర్వశక్తుడైన దేవుడు మహాత్మ్యం గలవాడు. ఆయన మనకు అగోచరుడు. న్యాయాన్ని, నీతిని ఆయన ఏమాత్రం చెరపడు. అందువలన మనుషులు ఆయనపట్ల భయభక్తులు కలిగి ఉంటారు.
൨൩സർവ്വശക്തനെയോ നാം കണ്ടെത്തുകയില്ല; അവിടുന്ന് ശക്തിയിൽ അത്യുന്നതനാകുന്നു; അവിടുന്ന് ന്യായത്തിനും പൂർണ്ണനീതിക്കും ഭംഗം വരുത്തുന്നില്ല.
24 ౨౪ తాము జ్ఞానులం అనుకునే వారిని ఆయన ఏమాత్రం లక్ష్యపెట్టడు.
൨൪അതുകൊണ്ട് മനുഷ്യർ അവിടുത്തെ ഭയപ്പെടുന്നു; ജ്ഞാനികളെന്ന് ഭാവിക്കുന്നവരെ അവിടുന്ന് കടാക്ഷിക്കുന്നില്ല”.
