< కీర్తనల~ గ్రంథము 30 >
1 ౧ ఒక కీర్తన. ఆలయ ప్రతిష్ట గీతం. దావీదు కీర్తన. యెహోవా, నేను నిన్ను ఘనపరుస్తాను. ఎందుకంటే, నా శత్రువులు నా మీద అతిశయించనియ్యకుండా నీవు పైకెత్తావు.
ഭവനപ്രതിഷ്ഠാഗീതം; ദാവീദിന്റെ ഒരു സങ്കീർത്തനം. യഹോവേ, ഞാൻ അങ്ങയെ പുകഴ്ത്തും, ആഴത്തിൽനിന്ന് അവിടന്ന് എന്നെ ഉദ്ധരിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു എന്റെ ശത്രുക്കൾ എന്റെമേൽ വിജയം ഘോഷിക്കാൻ അങ്ങ് അനുവദിച്ചില്ല.
2 ౨ యెహోవా, నా దేవా, నేను నీకు మొరపెట్టాను. నువ్వు నన్ను స్వస్థపరిచావు.
എന്റെ ദൈവമായ യഹോവേ, സഹായത്തിനായി ഞാൻ വിളിച്ചപേക്ഷിച്ചു, അങ്ങ് എന്നെ സൗഖ്യമാക്കി.
3 ౩ యెహోవా, పాతాళం నుండి నా ప్రాణాన్ని లేవనెత్తావు. నేను సమాధికి వెళ్ళకుండా నన్ను బతికించావు. (Sheol )
യഹോവേ, പാതാളത്തിൽനിന്ന് അവിടന്ന് എന്നെ കരകയറ്റിയിരിക്കുന്നു; കുഴിയിൽ ഇറങ്ങാതവണ്ണം അവിടന്നെന്റെ ജീവൻ കാത്തുപാലിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. (Sheol )
4 ౪ యెహోవా భక్తులారా, ఆయన్ని కీర్తించండి. ఆయన పరిశుద్ధ నామాన్ని బట్టి ఆయనను స్తుతించండి.
യഹോവയുടെ വിശ്വസ്തരേ, അവിടത്തേക്ക് സ്തുതിപാടുക; അവിടത്തെ വിശുദ്ധനാമത്തെ വാഴ്ത്തുക.
5 ౫ ఆయన కోపం ఒక్క నిమిషమే ఉంటుంది. అయితే ఆయన దయ జీవిత కాలమంతా ఉంటుంది. రాత్రంతా దుఃఖం ఉన్నప్పటికీ ఉదయానికి సంతోషం కలుగుతుంది.
കാരണം അവിടത്തെ കോപം ക്ഷണനേരത്തേക്കുമാത്രം, എന്നാൽ അവിടത്തെ പ്രസാദം ആജീവനാന്തം നിലനിൽക്കും; വിലാപം ഒരു രാത്രിമാത്രം നിലനിൽക്കുന്നു, എന്നാൽ പ്രഭാതത്തിൽ ആനന്ദഘോഷം വരവായി.
6 ౬ నేను భద్రంగా ఉన్నప్పుడు నన్నెవరూ కదిలించలేరు అనుకున్నాను.
എന്റെ ക്ഷേമകാലത്ത് ഞാൻ പറഞ്ഞു, “ഞാൻ ഒരുനാളും കുലുങ്ങുകയില്ല.”
7 ౭ యెహోవా, నీ దయతో నన్ను ఒక పర్వతంలాగా స్థిరంగా నిలబెట్టావు. అయితే నువ్వు నీ ముఖాన్ని దాచుకున్నప్పుడు నాలో కలవరం మొదలైంది.
യഹോവേ, അവിടത്തെ പ്രസാദത്താൽ അങ്ങ് എന്നെ പർവതംപോലെ ഉറപ്പിച്ചുനിർത്തി; എന്നാൽ അവിടന്ന് തിരുമുഖം മറയ്ക്കുമ്പോൾ, ഞാൻ പരിഭ്രമിച്ചുപോകുന്നു.
8 ౮ యెహోవా, నీకే నేను మొరపెట్టాను, నా ప్రభువును బతిమాలుకున్నాను.
യഹോവേ, ഞാൻ അങ്ങയെ വിളിച്ചപേക്ഷിച്ചു; കരുണയ്ക്കായി ഞാൻ കർത്താവിനോട് നിലവിളിച്ചു:
9 ౯ నేను చనిపోయి సమాధిలోకి దిగిపోతే ప్రయోజనం ఏముంది? మట్టి నిన్ను స్తుతిస్తుందా? నీ నమ్మకత్వాన్ని అది వివరిస్తుందా?
“എന്റെ രക്തം ചൊരിയുന്നതിൽ എന്തുലാഭം ഞാൻ ശവക്കുഴിയിലേക്ക് ഇറങ്ങിപ്പോകുന്നതുകൊണ്ട്, എന്തു പ്രയോജനം? ധൂളി അങ്ങയെ സ്തുതിക്കുമോ? അത് അവിടത്തെ വിശ്വസ്തതയെ ഘോഷിക്കുമോ?
10 ౧౦ యెహోవా, ఆలకించి నన్ను కరుణించు. యెహోవా, నాకు సహాయం చెయ్యి.
യഹോവേ, കേൾക്കണമേ, എന്നോട് കരുണയുണ്ടാകണമേ; യഹോവേ, എന്നെ സഹായിക്കണമേ.”
11 ౧౧ నువ్వు నా దుఃఖాన్ని నాట్యంగా మార్చావు. నా గోనెపట్ట తీసివేసి, సంతోషాన్ని నాకు వస్త్రంగా ధరింపజేశావు.
അവിടന്ന് എന്റെ വിലാപത്തെ നൃത്തമാക്കിത്തീർത്തു; അവിടന്ന് എന്റെ ചാക്കുശീലമാറ്റി ആനന്ദവസ്ത്രം അണിയിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു,
12 ౧౨ అందుకే నా ప్రాణం మౌనంగా ఉండక, నీకు స్తుతులు పాడుతుంది. యెహోవా, నా దేవా, నేను నిన్ను ఎల్లకాలం స్తుతిస్తాను.
എന്റെ ഹൃദയം മൗനമായിരിക്കാതെ ഞാൻ അങ്ങേക്ക് സ്തുതി പാടേണ്ടതിനുതന്നെ. എന്റെ ദൈവമായ യഹോവേ, ഞാൻ എന്നുമെന്നും അങ്ങയെ വാഴ്ത്തും.
