< Jeremiah 35 >
1 Judah siangpahrang Josiah capa Jehoiakim siangpahrang ah oh naah, Jeremiah khaeah Angraeng ih lok to angzoh,
The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
2 Rekab acaeng imthung takoh khaeah caeh ah loe, nihcae to Angraeng im athung maeto ah angzoh o hanah pacae ah, nihcae mah naek o hanah misurtui to paek ah, tiah ang naa.
Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of the LORD, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink.
3 To pongah Habaziniah capa Jeremiah, Jeremiah capa Jaazaniah, anih ih nawkamyanawk, a capanawk boih hoi Rekab ih imthung takoh kaminawk to ka kawk boih moe,
Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;
4 Angraeng ih im athung, Sithaw kami Igdaliah capa, Hanan capanawk ih imkhaan thungah ka caeh haih; to imkhaan loe thok toep kami, Shallum capa Maaseiah imkhaan ranui ah kaom, toksah kami angraengnawk ohhaih imkhaan taeng ah oh;
And I brought them into the house of the LORD, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which [was] by the chamber of the princes, which [was] above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door:
5 Rekab acaeng capanawk imthung takoh kaminawk hmaa ah, misurtui hoi kakoi laom hoi boengloengnawk to ka patoem pae moe, misurtui hae nae oh, tiah ka naa.
And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups, and I said unto them, Drink ye wine.
6 Toe nihcae mah, kaicae loe misurtui ka nae o ai; Rekab capa kaicae ampa Jonadab mah, Nangmacae hoi na caanawk khoek to misurtui roe nae o hmah, tiah lok ang thuih;
But they said, We will drink no wine: for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, [neither ye], nor your sons for ever:
7 im doeh na sah o mak ai ueloe, aanmu doeh na patii o mak ai, misur takha doeh na sah o mak ai, tidoeh na tawn o mak ai; angvin ah na oh o haih prae ah atue kasawk ah na oh o hanah, na hing thung kahni im thungah ni na om o tih, tiah ang naa.
Neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have [any: ] but all your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land where ye [be] strangers.
8 To pongah kaicae hoi ka zunawk, ka capanawk, ka canunawk boih loe kaimacae ampa Rekab ih capa Jonadab mah thuih ih lok to ka tahngai o;
Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor our daughters;
9 ohhaih im doeh ka sah o mak ai, misur takha doeh ka sah o mak ai; lawk doeh ka sah o mak ai ueloe, aanmu doeh ka patii o mak ai;
Nor to build houses for us to dwell in: neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
10 kahni im ah ka oh o, kaicae ampa Jonadab mah thuih ih lok ka tahngai o moe, ka pazui o boeh:
But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 toe Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar hae prae ah angzoh naah loe, Khaldian misatuh kaminawk hoi Syria misatuh kaminawk loe zit thoh pongah, Angzo oh, Jerusalem ah caeh o si, tiah ka thuih o moe, Jerusalem ah ka oh o, tiah pathim pae o.
But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.
12 To naah Angraeng ih lok to Jeremiah khaeah angzoh;
Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,
13 misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Caeh ah loe, Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kaminawk khaeah, Ka lok na tahngai o hanah, thuitaekhaih na talawk o mak ai maw? tiah a thuih, tiah thui paeh.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the LORD.
14 Rekab capa Jonadab mah a caanawk khaeah misurtui naek han ai ah lok thuih pae, vaihi khoek to nihcae mah anih ih lok to tahngaih pae o; ampa mah thuih ih lok tahngaih o pongah, vaihni ni khoek to misurtui nae o ai; khawnthaw ah kang thawk moe, lok kang thuih o, toe ka lok na tahngai o ai.
The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed; for unto this day they drink none, but obey their father’s commandment: notwithstanding I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye hearkened not unto me.
15 Khawnthaw ah kang thawk moe, ka tamna tahmaanawk to kang patoeh, nihcae mah, Na caeh o haih kahoih ai loklamnawk hoiah amlaem oh, na sak o ih hmuennawk to pakhraih oh, a tok sak pae hanah kalah sithawnawk hnukah bang o hmah, to tiah nahaeloe nam panawk khaeah ka paek ih prae thungah kho na sah o tih, tiah ang naa o; toe naa na patueng o ai moe, lok doeh na tahngai o ai.
I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending [them], saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.
16 Rekab capa Jonadab ih caanawk loe ampa mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah a sak o, toe hae ih kaminawk loe ka lok to tahngai o ai, tiah thuih.
Because the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father, which he commanded them; but this people hath not hearkened unto me:
17 To pongah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Khenah, Judah hoi Jerusalem ah kaom kaminawk boih nuiah ka thuih ih kasae amrohaih to ka phaksak han; nihcae khaeah lok ka thuih pae boeh, toe tahngai o ai; nihcae to ka kawk, toe na pathim o ai, tiah a naa.
Therefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them: because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered.
18 To pacoengah Jeremiah mah Recab imthung takoh khaeah, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Nangcae loe nam pa Jonadab mah thuih ih lok to na tahngaih o, ang thuitaekhaih loknawk to na pakuem o boih moe, a thuih ih loknawk to na pazui o boih, tiah a naa.
And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Because ye have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he hath commanded you:
19 To pongah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Rekab capa Jonadab ih acaeng loe boeng ai ah ka hmaa ah toksak han angdoe o tih, tiah a thuih.
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me for ever.
