Jeremias 35
1 Det Ord, som kom til Jeremias fra Herren i Joasiases søn kong Jojakim af Judas Dage:
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, [in] the days of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, saying,
2 "Gå 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 speak with them, and bring them into the house of the Lord, into one of the chambers, and offer them wine to drink.
3 Så hentede jeg Jaazanja, en Søn af Jirmeja, Habazzinjas Søn, og hans Brødre og alle hans Sønner og hele Rekabiternes Hus
Then I took Yaazanyah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Chabazzinyah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole 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 Maasejas, Sjallums Søns, Kammer.
And I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Chanan, the son of Yigdalyahu, the man of God, which was alongside of the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Ma'aseyahu the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door:
5 Og jeg satte krukker, som var fulde af Vin, og Bægre for dem og sagde: "Drik!"
And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets full of wine, and cups; and I said unto them, Drink wine.
6 Men de svarede: Vi drikker ikke Vin, thi vor Fader Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, gav os det Bud: I og eders Børn må aldrig drikke Vin,
But they said, We will not drink wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father hath laid a charge on us, saying, Ye shall not drink wine, neither ye, nor your sons for ever;
7 ej heller bygge Huse eller så Korn eller plante eller eje Vingårde, men I skal bo i Telte hele eders Liv, for at I må leve længe i det Land, I bor i som frem1uede.
Nor shall ye build any house, nor sow seed, nor plant a vineyard, nor have [any such]; but in tents shall ye dwell all your days, in order that ye may live many days on the face of the land where ye may sojourn.
8 Og vi har adlydt vor Fader Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, i alt, hvad han bød os, idet både vi, vore kvinder, Sønner og Døtre hele vort Liv afholder os fra at drikke Vin,
And we have hearkened unto the voice of Jehonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, not to drink any wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, and our daughters;
9 bygge Huse at bo i og eje Vingårde, Marker eller Sæd,
And not to build houses for our dwelling: and we never had any vineyard, or field, or seed;
10 men bor i Telte; vi har adlydt og nøje gjort, som vor Fader Jonadab bød os.
But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done in accordance with 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 Aramernes Hære! Og vi slog os ned i Jerusalem."
But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go into Jerusalem because of the army of the Chaldeans, and because of the army of the Syrians; and so we dwell at Jerusalem.
12 Da kom HERRENs Ord til mig således
Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,
13 Så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Gå hen og sig til Judas Mænd og Jerusalems Borgere: Vil I ikke tage ved Lære og høre mine Ord? lyder det fra HERREN.
Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Go and say to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the Lord.
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 årle og silde, uden at I vilde høre mig.
Fulfilled are the words of Jehonadab the son of Rechab, that he hath commanded his sons not to drink wine: and they have not drunk any even unto this day; because they have obeyed the commandment of their father; but I, I have spoken unto you, early in the day and speaking; but ye have not hearkened unto me.
15 Jeg sendte alle mine Tjenere Profeterne til eder årle og silde, for at de skulde sige: "Omvend eder hver fra sin onde Vej, gør gode Gerninger og hold eder ikke til andre Guder, så I dyrker dem; så skal I bo i det Land, jeg gav eder og eders Fædre." Men I bøjede ikke eders Øre og hørte mig ikke.
And I have sent unto you all my servants the prophets, making them rise up early and sending them, saying, Do but return every man from his evil way, and amend your deeds, and go not after other gods to serve them: and so shall ye remain in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers; but ye have not inclined your ear, and have not hearkened unto me.
16 Fordi Jonadabs, Rekabs Søns, Sønner overholdt deres Faders Bud, medens dette Folk ikke vilde høre mig,
Because the sons of Jehonadab the son of Rechab have fulfilled the commandment of their father, which he hath commanded them; but as this people have not hearkened unto me:
17 derfor, så 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 hath said the Lord, the 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 spoken concerning them; because I spoke unto them, but they would not hear; and I called unto them, but they would not answer.
18 Men til Rekabiternes Hus sagde Jeremias: Så 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 unto the house of the Rechabites said Jeremiah, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Whereas ye have hearkened to the charge of Jonadab your father, and have kept all his commandments, and have done in accordance with all that he hath commanded you:
19 derfor, så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Ingen Sinde skal Jonadab, Rekabs Søn, fattes en Mand til at stå for mit Åsyn.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, There shall not be wanting unto Jehonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before me at all times.
