< Jeremias 35 >

1 Det Ord, som kom til Jeremias fra Herren, i Judas Konge, Jojakims, Josias's Søns, Dage, saa lydende:
The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, —in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah saying:
2 Gak til Rekabiternes Hus og tal med dem, og før dem til Herrens Hus til et af Kamrene, og giv dem Vin at drikke!
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 Da tog jeg Jaasanja, en Søn af Jeremias, der var en Søn af Habazinia, tillige med hans Brødre og alle hans Sønner og Rekabiternes hele Hus,
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 og jeg førte dem til Herrens Hus, til den Guds Mand Hanans, Jigdaljas Søns, Børns Kammer, som var ved Siden af Fyrsternes Kammer, oven over Dørvogteren Maasejas, Sallums Søns, Kammer.
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 Og jeg satte for Rekabiternes Huses Børn Skaaler, fulde af Vin, tillige med Bægere, og jeg sagde til dem: Drikker Vin!
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 Men de sagde: Vi ville ikke drikke Vin; thi vor Fader Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, har befalet os og sagt: I skulle ikke drikke Vin, hverken I eller eders Børn evindelig,
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 og I skulle ikke bygge Hus og ikke saa Sæd og ikke plante Vingaard og ikke have saadant; men I skulle bo i Telte alle eders Dage, paa det I maa leve mange Dage i det Land, hvor I ere som fremmede.
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 Og vi adløde vor Fader, Jonadabs, Rekabs Søns, Røst, i alt det, som han havde budt os, saa at vi aldrig i vore Dage drikke Yin, hverken vi, vore Hustruer, eller vore Sønner og vore Døtre,
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 og heller ikke bygge os Huse at bo udi, eller have Vingaard eller Mark eller Sæd.
and not to build houses for us to dwell in, —and so, vineyard or field or seed, have we none;
10 Men vi boede i Telte og vare lydige og gjorde efter alt det, som vor Fader Jonadab havde budt os.
but we have dwelt in tents, —and have hearkened and done, according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 Og det skete, der Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, drog op i Landet, da sagde vi: Kommer og lader os gaa ind i Jerusalem for Kaldæernes Hær og for Syrernes Hær; og vi bleve i Jerusalem.
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 Da kom Herrens Ord til Jeremias, saaledes:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah, saying:
13 Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Gak, og sig til Judas Mænd og til Jerusalems Indbyggere: Ville I ikke annamme Tugt, saa at I adlyde mine Ord? siger Herren.
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 De Ord ere holdte ved Magt, som Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, havde budt sine Børn, om ikke at drikke Vin, og de have ikke drukket Vin indtil denne Dag, fordi de adløde deres Faders Bud; men jeg, jeg har talt til eder tidligt og ideligt, og I have ikke adlydt mig.
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 Og jeg sendte til eder alle mine Tjenere, Profeterne, tidligt og ideligt, at sige: Omvender eder dog, hver fra sin onde Vej, og bedrer eders Idrætter, og vandrer ikke efter andre Guder til at tjene dem, og bor i Landet, hvilket jeg har givet eder og eders Fædre; men I bøjede ikke eders Øre og adløde mig ikke.
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 Efterdi Jonadabs, Rekabs Søns, Børn have holdt deres Faders Bud, som han havde budt dem, men dette Folk ikke har adlydt mig,
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 derfor, saa siger Herren Zebaoths Gud, Israels Gud: Se, jeg lader komme over Juda og over alle Indbyggere i Jerusalem al den Ulykke, som jeg har talt imod dem, fordi jeg talte til dem, og de hørte ikke, og fordi jeg kaldte ad dem, og de svarede ikke.
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 Men til Rekabiternes Hus sagde Jeremias: Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Fordi I adløde Jonadabs, eders Faders, Bud, og holdt alle hans Bud og gjorde efter alt det, som han havde budt eder,
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 derfor, saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Der skal ikke fattes for Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, en Mand, som skal staa for mit Ansigt alle Dage.
Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, —Jonadab son of Rechab shall not want one to stand before me, all the days!
