Isaiah 23
1 ସୋର ବିଷଯ ରେ ଏକ ଦୁଃଖ ବାର୍ତ୍ତା : ହେ ତର୍ଶୀଶର ଜାହାଜ ସକଳ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ହାହାକାର କର। କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପୋତାଶ୍ରଯ ସମ୍ପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ନଷ୍ଟ ହାଇୟୋଇଛି। କିତ୍ତୀମ ଦେଶରୁ ଆସୁଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତି ଏହି ବାର୍ତ୍ତା ଥିଲା।
2 ହେ ଦ୍ବୀପ ନିବାସୀଗଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ନୀରବ ହୁଅ ଓ ଦୁଃଖିତ ହୁଅ। ସୋର ଥିଲା ସୀଦୋନର ବଣିକ। ସହେି ଦେଶର ବଣିକମାନେ ସମୁଦ୍ର ପାର ହାଇେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦେଶକୁ ଧନ ରେ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ କଲେ।
3 ସହେି ଲୋକମାନେ ଶସ୍ଯ ଖାଜେି ସମୁଦ୍ର ଆକ୍ରମଣ କଲେ। ସୋରର ସହେି ବଣିକଗଣ ନୀଳନଦୀର ଶସ୍ଯ କିଣିଲେ ଓ ଅନ୍ୟ ଦେଶ ରେ ବିକ୍ରଯ କଲେ।
4 ହେ ସୀଦୋନ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ଲଜ୍ଜିତ ହୁଅ। କାରଣ ସାଗର ଓ ସାଗରର ଦୃଢ଼ ଦୁର୍ଗ କୁହନ୍ତି : ମାରେ ପିଲା ନାହାଁନ୍ତି। ତେଣୁ ମୁଁ ପ୍ରସବ ବଦନୋ ଅନୁଭବ କରି ନାହିଁ। ପ୍ରସବ କରି ନ ଥିବାରୁ ୟୁବକମାନଙ୍କର ପ୍ରତିପାଳନ କରି ନାହିଁ କିମ୍ବା ୟୁବତୀମାନଙ୍କର ଭରଣପୋଷଣ କରି ନାହିଁ।
5 ମିଶର ସୋର ବିଷଯ ରେ ଏହି ସମ୍ବାଦ ଶୁଣିବ ଓ ବ୍ଯଥିତ ହବେ।
6 ହେ ଜାହାଜଗଣ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ତର୍ଶୀଶକୁ ଫରେିୟାଅ। ହେ ଦ୍ବୀପ ନିବାସୀମାନେ, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ହାହାକାର କର।
7 ଅତୀତ ରେ ସୋର ତୁମ୍ଭର ଆନନ୍ଦମଯୀ ନଗର ଥିଲା। ସହେି ପ୍ରାଚୀନ ନଗର ଅତି ପ୍ରାରମ୍ଭରୁ ଥିଲା। ସହେି ନଗରର ଲୋକେ ଦୂର ଦେଶ ରେ ବାସ କରିବାକୁ ୟାଇଛନ୍ତି।
8 ସୋର ନଗର ବହୁ ପ୍ରାଚୀନ ବ୍ଯକ୍ତି ଜନ୍ମ ଦଇେଛି। ସେଠିକାର ବଣିକଗଣ ରାଜ ତୁଲ୍ଯ। ତା'ର ଲୋକ ଯେ କି କିଣା ବିକା କରନ୍ତି, ସମାନେେ ସବୁ ସ୍ଥାନ ରେ ସମ୍ମାନ ଲାଭ କରନ୍ତି। ସମାନେେ ପୃଥିବୀର ସମ୍ଭ୍ରାନ୍ତ ମହାଜନ। ତେଣୁ ତାଙ୍କ ବିପକ୍ଷ ରେ କିଏ ମନ୍ତ୍ରଣା କରିଅଛି ?
9 ସର୍ବଶକ୍ତିମାନ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପୃଥିବୀର ସମସ୍ତ ଅହଙ୍କାରୀମାନଙ୍କର ଗର୍ବ, ସମ୍ଭ୍ରାନ୍ତମାନଙ୍କର ଗୌରବକୁ ତୁଚ୍ଛ କରିବାକୁ ମନ୍ତ୍ରଣା କରିଛନ୍ତି।
10 ହେ ତର୍ଶୀଶର କନ୍ଯାଗଣ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଫରେି ୟାଅ ଏବଂ ନିଜର ଜମି ରେ ଚାଷ କର, କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଆଶ୍ରଯସ୍ଥଳ ଧ୍ବଂସ ପାଇୟାଇଛି।
11 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସମୁଦ୍ର ଉପ ରେ ତାଙ୍କର ହସ୍ତ ବିସ୍ତାର କରିଛନ୍ତି। ସେ ସୋର ବିପକ୍ଷ ରେ ୟୁଦ୍ଧ ପାଇଁ ଦେଶଗୁଡ଼ିକୁ ଏକତ୍ର କରିଛନ୍ତି। ସେ କିଣାନର ଦୃଢ଼ ଦୁର୍ଗଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଧ୍ବଂସ କରିବାକୁ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଦଇେଛନ୍ତି।
12 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ କୁହନ୍ତି, ହେ ଉତ୍ପୀଡ଼ନ କରୁଥିବା ସୀଦୋନର କୁଆଁରୀକନ୍ଯା, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଆନନ୍ଦ କର ନାହିଁ କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଧ୍ବଂସ ହବେ। ମାତ୍ର ତୁମ୍ଭେ କିତ୍ତୀମକୁ ଗଲେ ମଧ୍ଯ, ସଠାେ ରେ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ବିଶ୍ରାମ ପାଇବ ନାହିଁ।'
13 ତେଣୁ ସୋର ଲୋକମାନେ କୁହନ୍ତି, ବାବିଲର ଲୋକମାନେ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ସାହାୟ୍ଯ କରିବେ।' ମାତ୍ର କଲଦୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଦେଶକୁ ଦେଖ। ବାବିଲ ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଆଉ ଦେଶ ନୁହେଁ। ଅଶୂରୀଯମାନେ ତାକୁ ଆକ୍ରମଣ କରି ତା'ର ଚାରିପଟେ ଦୁର୍ଗ ନିର୍ମାଣ କରିଛନ୍ତି। ତା'ର ସୈନ୍ଯମାନେ ସହେି ରମଣୀଯ ପ୍ରାସାଦମାନଙ୍କରୁ ସମସ୍ତ ଜିନିଷ ଲୁଟି ନଇେଛନ୍ତି। ବାବିଲକୁ ଧ୍ବଂସ ସ୍ତୁପ ରେ ପରିଣତ କରି ତାକୁ ବନ୍ଯ ଜନ୍ତୁଙ୍କର ବାସସ୍ଥଳୀ ରେ ପରିଣତ କରିଛନ୍ତି।
14 ହେ ତର୍ଶୀଶ୍ର ଜାହାଜସମୂହ, ହାହାକାର କର। କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଦୃଢ଼ ଦୁର୍ଗ ଧ୍ବଂସ ହାଇେଛି।
15 ସୋର ବିଷଯ ରେ ଲୋକେ ସତୁରି ବର୍ଷ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ବିସ୍ତୃତ ହବେେ। ତାହା ଏକ ରାଜାଙ୍କର ଅଧିକାର ସମୟର ପ୍ରମାଣ। ସତୁରି ବର୍ଷ ପ ରେ ସୋର ପ୍ରତି ବେଶ୍ଯାର ଗୀତ ଅନୁୟାଯୀ ଘଟିବ।
16 ହେ ବିସ୍ତୃତ ବେଶ୍ଯୋ! ବୀଣା ନଇେ ନଗର ଭ୍ରମଣ କର। ମଧୁର ତାଳ ରେ ବଜାଅ ଓ ଅନକେ ଗୀତ ଗାଅ। ତାହା ହେଲେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନେେ ସ୍ମୃତି ପଥରେ ଆସିବ।
17 ସତୁରି ବର୍ଷ ପ ରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସୋର ବିଷଯ ରେ ବିବଚେନା କରିବେ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସିଦ୍ଧାନ୍ତ ଦବେେ। ସୋର ତା'ର ବାଣିଜ୍ଯ ବୃତ୍ତିକି ଫରେିବ। ସେ ପୃଥିବୀସ୍ଥ ସମସ୍ତ ଦେଶ ପ୍ରତି ବେଶ୍ଯା ସଦୃଶ ହବେ।
18 ମାତ୍ର ସୋର ଉପାର୍ଜିତ ଧନକୁ ସଞ୍ଚଯ କରିବ ନାହିଁ। ତା'ର ଭଡ଼ା ଓ ବାଣିଜ୍ଯ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଉଦ୍ଦେଶ୍ଯ ରେ ସମର୍ପିତ ହବେ। ସେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଅନୁସରଣକାରୀମାନଙ୍କୁ ସେ ସଞ୍ଚିତ ଧନରୁ ଦିଆୟିବ। ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ସବେକ ପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ପ୍ରାଣ ରେ ଭକ୍ଷଣ କରିବେ ଓ ସହେି ପଇସା ରେ ସୁନ୍ଦର ପୋଷାକ ପରିଧାନ କରିବେ।
1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
5 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?
9 The Lord of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.
10 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.
11 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the Lord hath given a commandment against the merchant city, to destroy the strong holds thereof.
12 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.
13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.
14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.
15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
16 Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
Tamil Indian Revised Version
கர்த்தர் தெரிந்துகொண்ட இரண்டு வம்சங்களையும் வெறுத்துப்போட்டாரென்று இந்த மக்கள் சொல்லி, தங்களுக்கு முன்பாக என் மக்கள் இனி ஒரு தேசமல்லவென்று அதை இழிவுபடுத்துகிறார்கள் என்பதை நீ காண்கிறதில்லையோ?
Tamil Easy Reading Version
“எரேமியா, ஜனங்கள் என்ன சொல்லிக்கொண்டிருக்கிறார்கள் என்று பார்த்தாயா? அந்த ஜனங்கள் சொல்லுகிறார்கள். ‘கர்த்தர் இஸ்ரவேல் மற்றும் யூதா என்னும் வம்சங்களை விட்டு திரும்பிவிட்டார். அந்த ஜனங்களை கர்த்தர் தேர்ந்தெடுத்தார். ஆனால், இப்போது அவர் அதனைத் தேசமாக ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளவில்லை நிராகரித்துவிட்டார்.’”
Thiru Viviliam
ஆண்டவர் தேர்ந்துகொண்ட இரண்டு குடும்பங்களையும் அவர் தள்ளிவிட்டார் என்று இம்மக்கள் பேசிக்கொள்வதை நீ கவனித்ததில்லையா? என் மக்கள் ஓர் இனமாகத் திகழாத அளவுக்கு, என் மக்களை அவர்கள் இழிவாக நடத்துகிறார்கள்; அவர்களை ஓர் இனமாகக் கூடக் கருதுவதில்லை.
