Jeremija 35
1 Jahve uputi riječ Jeremiji u dane Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga:
The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, —in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah saying:
2 “Idi u zajednicu Rekabovaca, govori s njima i dovedi ih u Dom Jahvin, u jednu od dvorana, i daj im vina.”
Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak with them, and bring them into the house of Yahweh, into one of the chambers, —and give them, wine, to drink.
3 Tada dovedoh Jaazaniju, sina Habasinijina sina Jeremije, njegovu braću i sve sinove njegove i sav dom Rekabovaca
So I took Jaazaniah, son of Jeremiah son of Habazziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, —and all the house of the Rechabites;
4 i dovedoh ih u Dom Jahvin, u dvoranu čovjeka Božjega Ben Johanana, sina Jigdalijina, koja je kraj dvorane kneževske, a nad dvoranom vratara Maaseje, sina Šalumova.
and brought them into the house of Yahweh, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God, —which was beside the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum keeper of the porch;
5 Zatim stavih pred sinove doma Rekabova krčage pune vina i čaše te im rekoh: “Pijte vina!”
and I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups, —and said unto them Drink ye wine.
6 Ali oni odgovoriše: “Ne pijemo vina, jer nam je otac naš Jonadab, sin Rekabov, zapovjedio: 'Ne smijete nikada piti vina, ni vi ni sinovi vaši.
Then said they, —We will not drink wine, —for Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, laid command upon us, saying, Ye shall not drink wine, ye, nor your sons, unto times age-abiding;
7 Niti smijete graditi kućÄa, niti sijati sjemena ni saditi vinogradÄa, niti ih posjedovati, nego provodite sav život pod šatorima, da dugo živite u zemlji gdje kao stranci boravite.'
nor house, shall ye build nor, seed, shall ye sow, nor vineyard, shall ye plant, neither shall ye have them, —but in tents, shall ye dwell, all your days, that ye may live many days on the face of the soil where ye are sojourning.
8 I mi poslušasmo glas oca Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, u svem što nam je zapovjedio: da nikad vina ne pijemo, ni mi ni žene naše, niti sinovi naši, ni kćeri naše,
So we have hearkened unto the voice of Jonadab, son of Rechab, our father, in all that he commanded us, —not to drink wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons nor our daughters;
9 da ne gradimo kuća, ni da posjedujemo vinograda ni polja zasijanih,
and not to build houses for us to dwell in, —and so, vineyard or field or seed, have we none;
10 da stanujemo pod šatorima i držimo se poslušno svega što nam zapovjedi naš otac Jonadab.
but we have dwelt in tents, —and have hearkened and done, according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 Samo kada je Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, krenuo protiv ove zemlje, rekosmo: 'Hajdemo, pođimo u Jeruzalem da izbjegnemo vojsku kaldejsku i vojsku aramejsku!' I tako sada živimo u Jeruzalemu.”
And so it came to pass when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, —Let us even enter, Jerusalem, because of the force of the Chaldeans and because of the force of the Syrians: So have we dwelt in Jerusalem.
12 Tada dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah, saying:
13 Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, kralj Izraelov: “Idi i objavi Judejcima i Jeruzalemcima: 'Zar nećete primiti nauka moga i poslušati riječi moje?' - riječ je Jahvina. -
Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Go and say to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, —Will ye not receive correction by hearkening unto my words? Demandeth Yahweh:
14 'Ispunjuju se riječi Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, koji je sinovima svojim zabranio da piju vina, i do dana današnjega nitko ga nije pio, jer oni slušaju riječ svoga oca. A ja sam vam jednako govorio, ali me niste slušali.
Confirmed are the words of Jonadab son of Rechab—which he commanded his sons that they should not drink, wine, and they have not drunk until this day, for they have hearkened unto the command of their father, But, I, have spoken unto you, betimes, speaking, and ye have not hearkened, unto me.
15 I slao sam bez prestanka k vama sluge svoje, proroke, da vam propovijedaju: 'Vratite se svaki sa svoga opakog puta, popravite djela svoja i ne trčite za tuđim bogovima da im služite, pa ćete ostati u zemlji koju dadoh vama i ocima vašim'; ali ne prikloniste uha svojega i ne poslušaste me.
And I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, betimes, sending, saying, Return I pray you—every man from his wicked way, And amend your doings, And do not go after other gods to serve them, So shall ye remain on the soil which I gave to you, and to your fathers, —but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened, unto me.
16 Sinovi Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, držahu se zapovijedi koju im dade otac njihov. Ali mene ovaj narod ne sluša.'
Because the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab have, confirmed, the commandment of their father which he commanded them, —whereas, this people, have not hearkened unto me,
17 Zato govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Evo, navući ću na sve Jeruzalemce sve one nevolje kojima sam im zaprijetio, jer sam im govorio, a oni me ne slušahu, dozivao ih, ali se oni ne odazivahu.'”
Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of hosts, God of Israel, Behold me! bringing in against Judah and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, all the calamity, which I have spoken concerning them, —Because I spake unto them and they did not hearken, And I called to them and they did not answer.
18 Zajednici Rekabovaca Jeremija reče: “Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Jer ste slušali zapovijedi svoga oca Jonadaba i držali se svih naredaba i činili sve što vam je on zapovjedio,
But to the house of the Rechabites, said Jeremiah: Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Because ye have hearkened unto the commandment of Jonadab your father, and have kept all his commandments, and done according to all that he commanded you
19 zato - ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, kralj Izraelov - Jonadabu, sinu Rekabovu, nikad neće ponestati potomka koji će stajati pred licem mojim u sve dane.'”
Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, —Jonadab son of Rechab shall not want one to stand before me, all the days!
