Jeremia 35
1 Ma e wach mane obirone Jeremia koa ir Jehova Nyasaye e kinde loch Jehoyakim wuod Josia ma ruodh Juda:
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 “Dhiyo ir anywola mar Rekab kendo igwelgi mondo gibi e achiel kuom agola mar od Jehova Nyasaye kendo imigi divai gimadhi.”
“Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and bring them into the LORD’s house, into one of the rooms, and give them wine to drink.”
3 Omiyo ne adhi mondo aom Jazania wuod Jeremia, ma wuod Habazinia gi owetene kod yawuote duto, anywola duto mag joka Rekab.
Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, with his brothers, all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;
4 Ne akelogi e od Jehova Nyasaye, e agola mar yawuot Hanan wuod Igdalia ngʼat Nyasaye. Ne entiere machiegni gi agola mar jotelo, mane okalo mano mar Maseya wuod Shalum ma jarit dhood hekalu.
and I brought them into the LORD’s house, into the room of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was by the room of the princes, which was above the room of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the threshold.
5 Eka ne apango bakunde mopongʼ gi divai kod kikombe moko e nyim chwo mag anywola mag Rekab kendo awachonegi niya, “Madhuru divai.”
I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said to them, “Drink wine!”
6 To negidwoko niya, “Ok wamadh divai, nikech kwarwa Jehonadab wuod Rekab nomiyowa chikni: ‘Un kata nyikwau ok onego madh divai.
But they said, “We will drink no wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying, ‘You shall drink no wine, neither you nor your children, forever.
7 Bende kik uger udi, kata komo kodhi kata pidho mzabibu; gigi ok onego ubed godo, to nyaka udag e hembe. Eka unudag kinde marabora e piny kama unie jokwath.’
You shall not build a house, sow seed, plant a vineyard, or have any; but all your days you shall dwell in tents, that you may live many days in the land in which you live as nomads.’
8 Waserito gik moko duto mane kwarwa Jehonadab wuod Rekab ochikowa. Wan kod mondewa kata yawuotwa gi nyiwa pod ok omadho divai,
We have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he commanded us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters;
9 kata gero udi mondo wadagie kata bedo gi puothe mzabibu, kod puothe mag cham.
and not to build houses for ourselves to dwell in. We have no vineyard, field, or seed;
10 Wasedak e hembe kendo waserito gimoro amora ma kwarwa Jehonadab nochikowa.
but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 To Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nomonjo pinyni, ne wawacho ni, ‘Biuru, nyaka wadhi Jerusalem wapondne jolweny mag Babulon kod mag jo-Aram kapok gimakowa.’ Omiyo ne wadongʼ Jerusalem.”
But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, we said, ‘Come! Let’s go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Kasdim, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; so we will dwell at Jerusalem.’”
12 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia, kawacho niya:
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
13 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Dhiyo kendo inyis chwo ma Juda kod jo-Jerusalem ni, ‘Donge unyalo puonjoru kuom ma mi urit wechena?’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
“The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, “Will you not receive instruction to listen to my words?” says the LORD.
14 ‘Jehonadab wuod Rekab nochiwo chik ne yawuote ni kik madh divai kendo chikni oseriti. Nyaka kawuononi pod ok gimadho divai, nikech girito chik kwargi. To asewuoyo kinde ka kinde, to kata kamano pod ok umiya luor.
“The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab that he commanded his sons, not to drink wine, are performed; and to this day they drink none, for they obey their father’s commandment; but I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking, and you have not listened to me.
15 Pile ka pile ne aoro jotijena ma jonabi duto iru. Negiwacho niya, “Uduto nyaka uwe yoreu mamono kendo ulok timbeu; kik ulu bangʼ nyiseche manono mondo utinegi. Eka udag e piny ma asemiyou kod wuoneu.” To pod ok uchiko itu kata winja.
I have sent also to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, ‘Every one of you must return now from his evil way, amend your doings, and don’t go after other gods to serve them. Then you will dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers;’ but you have not inclined your ear, nor listened to me.
16 Nyikwa Jehonadab wuod Rekab oserito chike mane kweregi omiyogi, to jogi pod ok omiya luor.’
The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to me.”’
17 “Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Winjuru! Anakel kuom Juda kod ji duto modak Jerusalem kit masira moro amora mahero. Ne awuoyo kodgi, to ne ok giwinja; ne aluongogi, to ne ok gidwoka.’”
“Therefore the LORD, the God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Judah and on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them, but they have not heard; and I have called to them, but they have not answered.’”
18 Eka Jeremia nonyiso anywola mar joka Rekab niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Userito chik mar kwaru Jehonadab kendo useluwo puonjne duto kendo usetimo gik moko duto mane ochikou.’
Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, “The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according to all that he commanded you,’
19 Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Jehonadab wuod Rekab ok nobed maonge gi ngʼama tiyone.’”
therefore the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jonadab the son of Rechab will not lack a man to stand before me forever.’”
