< Jeremias 35 >
1 Det Ord, som kom til Jeremias fra HERREN i Josias's Søn Kong Jojakim af Judas Dage:
The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying:
2 »Gaa hen til Rekabiternes Hus og tal dem til, bring dem til et af Kamrene i HERRENS Hus og giv dem Vin at drikke!«
'Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and thou hast spoken with them, and brought them into the house of Jehovah, unto one of the chambers, and caused them to drink wine.'
3 Saa hentede jeg Ja'azanja, en Søn af Jirmeja, Habazzinjas Søn, og hans Brødre og alle hans Sønner og hele Rekabiternes Hus
And I take Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, son of Habazziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and all the house of the Rechabites,
4 og bragte dem til HERRENS Hus, til den Guds Mand Hanans, Jigdaljahus Søns, Sønners Kammer ved Siden af Fyrsternes Kammer oven over Dørvogteren Ma'asejas, Sjallums Søns, Kammer.
and bring them into the house of Jehovah, unto the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God, that [is] near to the chamber of the princes, that [is] above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum, keeper of the threshold;
5 Og jeg satte Krukker, som var fulde af Vin, og Bægre for dem og sagde: »Drik!«
and I put before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets full of wine, and cups, and I say unto them, Drink ye wine.
6 Men de svarede: »Vi drikker ikke Vin, thi vor Fader Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, gav os det Bud: I og eders Børn maa aldrig drikke Vin,
And they say, 'We do not drink wine: for Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, charged us, saying, Ye do not drink wine, ye and your sons — unto the age;
7 ej heller bygge Huse eller saa Korn eller plante eller eje Vingaarde, men I skal bo i Telte hele eders Liv, for at I maa leve længe i det Land, I bor i som fremmede.
and a house ye do not build, and seed ye do not sow, and a vineyard ye do not plant, nor have ye any; for in tents do ye dwell all your days, that ye may live many days on the face of the ground whither ye are sojourning.
8 Og vi har adlydt vor Fader Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, i alt, hvad han bød os, idet baade vi, vore Kvinder, Sønner og Døtre hele vort Liv afholder os fra at drikke Vin,
'And we hearken to the voice of Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, to all that he commanded us, not to drink wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, and our daughters;
9 bygge Huse at bo i og eje Vingaarde, Marker eller Sæd,
nor to build houses for our dwelling; and vineyard, and field, and seed, we have none;
10 men bor i Telte; vi har adlydt og nøje gjort, som vor Fader Jonadab bød os.
and we dwell in tents, and we hearken, and we do according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us;
11 Men da Kong Nebukadrezar af Babel faldt ind i Landet, sagde vi: Kom, lad os ty til Jerusalem for Kaldæernes og Aramæernes Hære! Og vi slog os ned i Jerusalem.«
and it cometh to pass, in the coming up of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon unto the land, that we say, Come, and we enter Jerusalem, because of the force of the Chaldeans, and because of the force of Aram — and we dwell in Jerusalem.'
12 Da kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying: 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel:
13 Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Gaa hen og sig til Judas Mænd og Jerusalems Borgere: Vil I ikke tage ved Lære og høre mine Ord? lyder det fra HERREN.
'Go, and thou hast said to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Do ye not receive instruction? — to hearken unto My words — an affirmation of Jehovah.
14 Jonadabs, Rekabs Søns, Bud er blevet overholdt; thi han forbød sine Sønner at drikke Vin, og de har ikke drukket Vin til den Dag i Dag, men adlydt deres Faders Bud; men jeg har talet til eder aarle og silde, uden at I vilde høre mig.
Performed have been the words of Jonadab son of Rechab, when he commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk unto this day, for they have obeyed the command of their father; and I — I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking, and ye have not hearkened unto Me.
15 Jeg sendte alle mine Tjenere Profeterne til eder aarle og silde, for at de skulde sige: »Omvend eder hver fra sin onde Vej, gør gode Gerninger og hold eder ikke til andre Guder, saa I dyrker dem; saa skal I bo i det Land, jeg gav eder og eders Fædre.« Men I bøjede ikke eders Øre og hørte mig ikke.
And I send unto you all My servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying: Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way, and amend your doings, yea, ye do not walk after other gods, to serve them, and dwell ye on the ground that I have given to you and to your fathers; and ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto Me.
16 Fordi Jonadabs, Rekabs Søns, Sønner overholdt deres Faders Bud, medens dette Folk ikke vilde høre mig,
'Because the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab have performed the command of their father, that he commanded them, and this people have not hearkened unto Me,
17 derfor, saa siger HERREN, Hærskarers Gud, Israels Gud: Se, jeg bringer over Juda og Jerusalems Borgere al den Ulykke, jeg har truet dem med, fordi de ikke hørte, da jeg talede, og ikke svarede, da jeg kaldte ad dem.
therefore thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am bringing in unto Judah, and unto all inhabitants of Jerusalem, all the evil that I have spoken against them, because I have spoken unto them, and they have not hearkened, yea, I call to them, and they have not answered.'
18 Men til Rekabiternes Hus sagde Jeremias: Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Fordi I har adlydt eders Fader Jonadabs Bud og overholdt alle hans Bud og gjort alt, hvad han bød eder,
And to the house of the Rechabites said Jeremiah: 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Because that ye have hearkened unto the command of Jonadab your father, and ye observe all his commands, and do according to all that he commanded you;
19 derfor, saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Ingen Sinde skal Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, fattes en Mand til at staa for mit Aasyn.
therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Of Jonadab son of Rechab one standing before me is not cut off all the days.'
