1. യഹോവയുടെ അരുളപ്പാടു എനിക്കുണ്ടായതെന്തെന്നാല്

1. మరియు యెహోవా వాక్కు నాకు ప్రత్యక్షమై యీలాగు సెలవిచ్చెను

2. മനുഷ്യപുത്രാ, യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ ഇടയന്മാരെക്കുറിച്ചു പ്രവചിക്ക; നീ പ്രവചിച്ചു അവരോടു, ഇടയന്മാരോടു തന്നേ, പറയേണ്ടതുയഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവു ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നുതങ്ങളെത്തന്നേ മേയിക്കുന്ന യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ ഇടയന്മാര്ക്കും അയ്യോ കഷ്ടം! ആടുകളെ അല്ലയോ ഇടയന്മാര് മേയിക്കേണ്ടതു?
യോഹന്നാൻ 10:8

2. నరపుత్రుడా, ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల కాపరులనుగూర్చి ఈ మాట ప్రవచింపుము, ఆ కాపరులతో ఇట్లనుము ప్రభువగు యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చున దేమనగా తమ కడుపు నింపుకొను ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల కాపరులకు శ్రమ; కాపరులు గొఱ్ఱెలను మేపవలెను గదా.

3. നിങ്ങള് മേദസ്സു തിന്നുകയും ആട്ടുരോമം ഉടുക്കയും തടിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നവയെ അറുക്കയും ചെയ്യുന്നു; ആടുകളെ നിങ്ങള് മേയിക്കുന്നില്ലതാനും.
യോഹന്നാൻ 10:8

3. మీరు క్రొవ్విన గొఱ్ఱెలను వధించి క్రొవ్వును తిని బొచ్చును కప్పుకొందురు గాని గొఱ్ఱెలను మేపరు,

4. നിങ്ങള് ബലഹീനമായതിനെ ശക്തീകരിക്കയോ ദീനം പിടിച്ചതിനെ ചികിത്സിക്കയോ ഒടിഞ്ഞതിനെ മുറിവുകെട്ടുകയോ ചിതറിപ്പോയതിനെ തിരിച്ചുവരുത്തുകയോ കാണാതെപോയതിനെ അന്വേഷിക്കയോ ചെയ്യാതെ കഠിനതയോടും ക്രൂരതയോടും കൂടെ അവയെ ഭരിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു.

4. బలహీనమైనవాటిని మీరు బలపరచరు, రోగముగలవాటిని స్వస్థపరచరు, గాయపడిన వాటికి కట్టుకట్టరు, తోలివేసిన వాటిని మరల తోలుకొనిరారు, తప్పిపోయినవాటిని వెదకరు, అది మాత్రమేగాక మీరు కఠినమనస్కులై బలాత్కారముతో వాటిని ఏలుదురు.

5. ഇടയന് ഇല്ലായ്കകൊണ്ടു അവ ചിതറിപ്പോയി; ചിതറിപ്പോയിട്ടു അവ കാട്ടിലെ സകലമൃഗങ്ങള്ക്കും ഇരയായിത്തീര്ന്നു.
മത്തായി 9:36, മർക്കൊസ് 6:34, 1 പത്രൊസ് 2:25

5. కాబట్టి కాపరులు లేకయే అవి చెదరిపోయెను, చెదరిపోయి సకల అడవి మృగములకు ఆహారమాయెను.

6. എന്റെ ആടുകള് എല്ലാമലകളിലും ഉയരമുള്ള എല്ലാകുന്നിന്മേലും ഉഴന്നുനടന്നു; ഭൂതലത്തില് ഒക്കെയും എന്റെ ആടുകള് ചിതറിപ്പോയി; ആരും അവയെ തിരകയോ അന്വേഷിക്കയോ ചെയ്തിട്ടില്ല.
1 പത്രൊസ് 2:25

6. నా గొఱ్ఱెలు పర్వతములన్నిటి మీదను ఎత్తయిన ప్రతి కొండమీదను తిరుగులాడుచున్నవి, నా గొఱ్ఱెలు భూమియందంతట చెదరిపోయినను వాటినిగూర్చి విచారించువాడొకడును లేడు, వెదకువాడొకడును లేడు.

7. അതുകൊണ്ടു ഇടയന്മാരേ, യഹോവയുടെ വചനം കേള്പ്പിന് ;

7. కాబట్టి కాపరులారా, యెహోవా మాట ఆలకించుడి

8. എന്നാണ ഇടയനില്ലായ്കകൊണ്ടത്രേ എന്റെ ആടുകള് കവര്ച്ചയായിപ്പോകയും എന്റെ ആടുകള് കാട്ടിലെ സകലമൃഗത്തിന്നും ഇരയായിത്തീരുകയും ചെയ്തതു എന്നു യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാടു; എന്റെ ഇടയന്മാര് എന്റെ ആടുകളെ അന്വേഷിക്കാതെ തങ്ങളെത്തന്നേ മേയിക്കയും ആടുകളെ മേയിക്കാതെയിരിക്കയും ചെയ്ക കൊണ്ടു,
മർക്കൊസ് 6:34, യൂദാ യുദാസ് 1:12

8. కాపరులు లేకుండ నా గొఱ్ఱెలు దోపుడుసొమ్మయి సకలమైన అడవిమృగములకు ఆహారమాయెను; కాపరులు నా గొఱ్ఱెలను విచారింపరు, తమ కడుపు మాత్రమే నింపుకొందురు గాని గొఱ్ఱెలను మేపరు; ఇదే ప్రభువైన యెహోవా వాక్కు.

9. ഇടയന്മാരേ, യഹോവയുടെ വചനം കേള്പ്പിന്

9. కాబట్టి కాపరులారా యెహోవా మాట ఆలకించుడి.

10. യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവു ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നുഞാന് ഇടയന്മാര്ക്കും വിരോധമായിരിക്കുന്നു; ഞാന് എന്റെ ആടുകളെ അവരുടെ കയ്യില്നിന്നു ചോദിച്ചു, ആടുകളെ മേയിക്കുന്ന വേലയില്നിന്നു അവരെ നീക്കിക്കളയും; ഇടയന്മാര് ഇനി തങ്ങളെത്തന്നേ മേയിക്കയില്ല; എന്റെ ആടുകള് അവര്ക്കും ഇരയാകാതെയിരിക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു ഞാന് അവയെ അവരുടെ വായില് നിന്നു വിടുവിക്കും.

10. ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చునదేమనగా నా జీవముతోడు నేను ఆ కాపరులకు విరోధినైతిని, నా గొఱ్ఱెలనుగూర్చి వారియొద్ద విచారించెదను, వారు గొఱ్ఱెలు మేపుట మాన్పించెదను, ఇకను కాపరులు తమ కడుపు నింపుకొన జాలక యుందురు; నా గొఱ్ఱెలు వారికి తిండికాకుండ వారి నోటనుండి వాటిని తప్పించెదను, ఇదే ప్రభువైన యెహోవా వాక్కు.

11. യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവു ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നുഞാന് തന്നേ എന്റെ ആടുകളെ തിരഞ്ഞുനോക്കും.
ലൂക്കോസ് 15:4

11. ప్రభువైన యెహోవా సెలవిచ్చునదేమనగా ఇదిగో నేను నేనే నా గొఱ్ఱెలను వెదకి వాటిని కనుగొందును.

12. ഒരു ഇടയന് ചിതറിപ്പോയിരിക്കുന്ന തന്റെ ആടുകളുടെ ഇടയില് ഇരിക്കുന്ന നാളില് തന്റെ ആട്ടിന് കൂട്ടത്തെ അന്വേഷിക്കുന്നതുപോലെ ഞാന് എന്റെ ആടുകളെ അന്വേഷിച്ചു, അവ കാറും കറുപ്പുമുള്ള ദിവസത്തില് ചിതറിപ്പോയ സകലസ്ഥലങ്ങളിലും നിന്നു അവയെ വിടുവിക്കും.

12. తమ గొఱ్ఱెలు చెదరిపోయినప్పుడు కాపరులు వాటిని వెదకునట్లు నేను నా గొఱ్ఱెలను వెదకి, చీకటిగల మబ్బుదినమందు ఎక్కడెక్కడికి అవి చెదరిపోయెనో అక్కడనుండి నేను వాటిని తప్పించి

13. ഞാന് അവയെ ജാതികളുടെ ഇടയില്നിന്നു പുറപ്പെടുവിച്ചു ദേശങ്ങളില് നിന്നു ശേഖരിച്ചു സ്വദേശത്തു കൊണ്ടുവന്നു യിസ്രായേല്മലകളിലും നദീതീരങ്ങളിലും ദേശത്തിലെ സകലവാസസ്ഥലങ്ങളിലും മേയിക്കും.

13. ఆ యా జనులలోనుండి వాటిని తోడుకొని వచ్చి, ఆ యా దేశములలోనుండి వాటిని సమకూర్చి వాటి స్వదేశములోనికి వాటిని తెచ్చి పర్వతములమీదను వాగులయొద్దను దేశమందున్న సకలమైన కాపురపు స్థలములందును వాటిని మేపెదను.

14. നല്ല മേച്ചല്പുറത്തു ഞാന് അവയെ മേയിക്കും; യിസ്രായേലിന്റെ ഉയര്ന്ന മലകള് അവേക്കു കിടപ്പിടം ആയിരിക്കും; അവിടെ അവ നല്ല കിടപ്പിടത്തു കിടക്കുകയും യിസ്രായേല്മലകളിലെ പുഷ്ടിയുള്ള മേച്ചല്പുറത്തു മേയുകയും ചെയ്യും.

14. నేను మంచి మేతగలచోట వాటిని మేపెదను, ఇశ్రాయేలుయొక్క ఉన్నతస్థలములమీద వాటికి దొడ్డి యేర్పడును, అక్కడ అవి మంచి దొడ్డిలో పండుకొనును, ఇశ్రాయేలు పర్వతములమీద బలమైన మేతగల స్థలమందు అవి మేయును,

15. ഞാന് തന്നേ എന്റെ ആടുകളെ മേയിക്കയും കിടത്തുകയും ചെയ്യും എന്നു യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാടു.
യോഹന്നാൻ 10:11

15. నేనే నా గొఱ్ఱెలను మేపి పరుండబెట్టుదును; ఇదే ప్రభువగు యెహోవా వాక్కు.

16. കാണാതെപോയതിനെ ഞാന് അന്വേഷിക്കയും ഔടിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞതിനെ തിരിച്ചു വരുത്തുകയും ഒടിഞ്ഞതിനെ മുറിവുകെട്ടുകയും ദീനം പിടിച്ചതിനെ ശക്തീകരിക്കയും ചെയ്യും; എന്നാല് കൊഴുത്തതിനെയും ഉരത്തതിനെയും ഞാന് നശിപ്പിക്കും; ഞാന് ന്യായത്തോടെ അവയെ മേയിക്കും.
ലൂക്കോസ് 15:4, ലൂക്കോസ് 19:10

16. తప్పిపోయిన దానిని నేను వెదకుదును, తోలివేసిన దానిని మరల తోలుకొని వచ్చెదను, గాయపడినదానికి కట్టు కట్టుదును, దుర్బలముగా ఉన్నదానిని బలపరచుదును; అయితే క్రొవ్వినవాటికిని బలముగలవాటికిని శిక్షయను మేతపెట్టి లయపరచెదను.

17. നിങ്ങളോ, എന്റെ ആടുകളേ, യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവു ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നുഞാന് ആടിന്നും ആടിന്നും മദ്ധ്യേയും ആട്ടുകൊറ്റന്മാര്ക്കും കോലാട്ടുകൊറ്റന്മാര്ക്കും മദ്ധ്യേയും ന്യായം വിധിക്കുന്നു.
മത്തായി 25:32

17. నా మందా, మీ విషయమై దేవుడనైన యెహోవానగు నేను సెలవిచ్చునదేమనగా గొఱ్ఱెకును గొఱ్ఱెకును మధ్యను, గొఱ్ఱెలకును పొట్టేళ్ల కును మధ్యను, గొఱ్ఱెలకును మేకపోతులకును మధ్యను భేదము కనుగొని నేను తీర్పుతీర్చెదను.

18. നിങ്ങള് നല്ല മേച്ചല് മേഞ്ഞിട്ടു മേച്ചലിന്റെ ശേഷിപ്പിനെ കാല്കൊണ്ടു ചവിട്ടിക്കളയുന്നതും തെളിഞ്ഞ വെള്ളം കുടിച്ചിട്ടു ശേഷിപ്പുള്ളതിനെ കാല്കൊണ്ടു കലക്കിക്കളയുന്നതും നിങ്ങള്ക്കു പോരായോ?

18. విశేషముగా మేతమేసి మిగిలిన దానిని కాళ్లతో త్రొక్కుట మీకు చాలదా?

19. നിങ്ങള് കാല്കൊണ്ടു ചവിട്ടിയതു എന്റെ ആടുകള് തിന്നുകയും നിങ്ങള് കാല്കൊണ്ടു കലക്കിയതു അവ കുടിക്കയും ചെയ്യേണമോ?

19. మీరు స్వచ్ఛమైన నీరుత్రాగి మిగిలినదానిని కాళ్ళతో కలకలు చేయుట మీకుచాలదా? మీరు కాళ్లతో త్రొక్కినదానిని నా గొఱ్ఱెలు మేయవలెనా? కాళ్లతో మీరు బురదగా కలిపినదానిని అవి త్రాగవలెనా?

20. അതുകൊണ്ടു യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവു അവയോടു ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നുഞാന് തന്നേ തടിച്ച ആടുകള്ക്കും മെലിഞ്ഞ ആടുകള്ക്കും മദ്ധ്യേ ന്യായം വിധിക്കും.

20. కాబట్టి ప్రభువైన యెహోవా ఈ మాట సెలవిచ్చుచున్నాడు ఇదిగో నేను నేనే క్రొవ్విన గొఱ్ఱెలకును చిక్కిపోయిన గొఱ్ఱెలకును మధ్య భేదము కనుగొని తీర్పు తీర్చుదును.

21. ദീനം പിടിച്ചവയെ നിങ്ങള് പരക്കെ ചിതറിക്കുവോളം പാര്ശ്വംകൊണ്ടും തോള്കൊണ്ടും ഉന്തി അവയെ ഒക്കെയും കൊമ്പുകൊണ്ടു ഇടിക്കുന്നതിനാല്

21. మీరు భుజముతోను ప్రక్కతోను త్రోసి, కొమ్ములతో రోగముగల వాటినన్నిటిని పొడిచి చెదరగొట్టెదరు.

22. ഞാന് എന്റെ ആട്ടിന് കൂട്ടത്തെ രക്ഷിക്കും; അവ ഇനി ഇരയായിത്തീരുകയില്ല; ഞാന് ആടിന്നും ആടിന്നും മദ്ധ്യേ ന്യായം വിധിക്കും.

22. నా గొఱ్ఱెలు ఇక దోపుడు కాకుండ గొఱ్ఱెకును గొఱ్ఱెకును మధ్య తీర్పుతీర్చి నేను వాటిని రక్షించెదను.

23. അവയെ മേയിക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു ഞാന് ഒരേ ഇടയനെ അവെക്കായി നിയമിക്കും; എന്റെ ദാസനായ ദാവീദിനെ തന്നേ; അവന് അവയെ മേയിച്ചു അവേക്കു ഇടയനായിരിക്കും.
യോഹന്നാൻ 1:45, യോഹന്നാൻ 10:16, വെളിപ്പാടു വെളിപാട് 7:17

23. వాటిని మేపుటకై నేను నా సేవకుడైన దావీదును వాటిమీద కాపరినిగా నియమించెదను, అతడు వాటికి కాపరిగా ఉండి వాటిని మేపును.

24. അങ്ങനെ യഹോവയായ ഞാന് അവര്ക്കും ദൈവവും എന്റെ ദാസനായ ദാവീദ് അവരുടെ മദ്ധ്യേ പ്രഭുവും ആയിരിക്കും; യഹോവയായ ഞാന് അതു അരുളിച്ചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്നു.

24. యెహోవానైన నేను వారికి దేవుడనై యుందును, నా సేవకుడైన దావీదు వారిమధ్య అధిపతిగా ఉండును, యెహోవానైన నేను మాటయిచ్చియున్నాను.

25. ഞാന് അവയോടു ഒരു സമാധാന നിയമം ചെയ്തു ദുഷ്ടമൃഗങ്ങളെ ദേശത്തുനിന്നു നീക്കിക്കളയും; അങ്ങനെ അവ മരുഭൂമിയില് നിര്ഭയമായി വസിക്കയും കാടുകളില് ഉറങ്ങുകയും ചെയ്യും.

25. మరియు అవి అరణ్యములో నిర్భయముగా నివసించునట్లును, అడవిలో నిర్భయముగా పండుకొనునట్లును నేను వారితో సమాధానార్థ నిబంధన చేయుదును, దుష్టమృగములు దేశములో లేకుండ చేయుదును.

26. ഞാന് അവയെയും എന്റെ കുന്നിന്നും ചുറ്റുമുള്ള സ്ഥലങ്ങളെയും ഒരു അനുഗ്രഹമാക്കിവേക്കും; ഞാന് തക്ക സമയത്തു മഴപെയ്യിക്കും; അതു അനുഗ്രഹകരമായ മഴ ആയിരിക്കും.

26. వారిని నా పర్వతము చుట్టుపట్ల స్థలములను దీవెనకరముగా చేయుదును. ఋతువుల ప్రకారము వర్షము కురిపించెదను, దీవెనకరమగు వర్షములు కురియును,

27. വയലിലെ വൃക്ഷം ഫലം കായ്ക്കയും നിലം നന്നായി വിളകയും അവര് തങ്ങളുടെ ദേശത്തു നിര്ഭയമായി വസിക്കയും ഞാന് അവരുടെ നുകക്കഴികളെ പൊട്ടിച്ചു, അവരെക്കൊണ്ടു പണി എടുപ്പിച്ചവരുടെ കയ്യില്നിന്നു അവരെ വിടുവിക്കയും ചെയ്യുമ്പോള് ഞാന് യഹോവ എന്നു അവര് അറിയും.

27. ఫలవృక్షములు ఫలములిచ్చును, భూమి పంట పండును, వారు దేశములో నిర్భయముగా నివసింతురు, నేను వారి కాడికట్లను తెంపి వారిని దాసులుగా చేసినవారి చేతిలో నుండి వారిని విడిపింపగా నేను యెహోవానైయున్నానని వారు తెలిసికొందురు.

28. അവര് ഇനി ജാതികള്ക്കു കവര്ച്ച ആയിത്തീരുകയില്ല; കാട്ടുമൃഗം അവരെ കടിച്ചു കീറുകയില്ല; അവര് നിര്ഭയമായി വസിക്കും; ആരും അവരെ ഭയപ്പെടുത്തുകയുമില്ല.
വെളിപ്പാടു വെളിപാട് 6:8

28. ఇక వారు అన్యజనులకు దోపుడు సొమ్ముగా ఉండరు, దుష్టమృగములు వారినిక భక్షింపవు, ఎవరివలనను భయము లేకుండ వారు సురక్షితముగా నివసించెదరు.

29. ഞാന് അവര്ക്കും കീര്ത്തിയുള്ളോരു നടുതല വെച്ചുണ്ടാക്കും; അവര് ഇനി ദേശത്തു പട്ടണി കിടന്നു നശിക്കയില്ല; ജാതികളുടെ നിന്ദ ഇനി വഹിക്കയുമില്ല.
1 തിമൊഥെയൊസ് 6:15

29. మరియు వారు ఇక దేశములో కరవు కలిగి నశించిపోకుండను అన్యజనులవలన వారి కవమానము ప్రాప్తించకుండను వారి ప్రఖ్యాతికొరకై తోట యొకటి నేనేర్పరచెదను.

30. ഇങ്ങനെ അവരുടെ ദൈവമായ യഹോവ എന്ന ഞാന് അവരോടുകൂടെ ഉണ്ടെന്നും യിസ്രായേല്ഗൃഹമായിരിക്കുന്ന അവര് എന്റെ ജനമാകുന്നു എന്നും അവര് അറിയും എന്നു യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാടു.

30. అప్పుడు తమ దేవుడైన యెహోవానగు నేను తమకు తోడుగా ఉన్నాననియు, ఇశ్రాయేలీయులైన తాము నా జనులైయున్నారనియు వారు తెలిసికొందురు; ఇదే ప్రభువగు యెహోవా వాక్కు.

31. എന്നാല് എന്റെ മേച്ചല്പുറത്തെ ആടുകളായി എന്റെ ആടുകളായുള്ളോരേ, നിങ്ങള് മനുഷ്യരത്രേ; ഞാനോ നിങ്ങളുടെ ദൈവം എന്നു യഹോവയായ കര്ത്താവിന്റെ അരുളപ്പാടു.

31. నా గొఱ్ఱెలును నేను మేపుచున్న గొఱ్ఱెలునగు మీరు మనుష్యులు, నేను మీ దేవుడను; ఇదే ప్రభువైన యెహోవా వాక్కు.
