< Jeremiah 35 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
A palavra que do Senhor veiu a Jeremias, nos dias de Joaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judah, dizendo:
2 Go into the house of the Rechabites, and have talk with them, and take them into the house of the Lord, into one of the rooms, and give them wine.
Vae á casa dos rechabitas, e falla com elles, e leva-os á casa do Senhor, a uma das camaras e dá-lhes vinho a beber.
3 Then I took Jaazaniah, the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons and all the Rechabites;
Então tomei a Jasanias, filho de Jeremias, filho de Habazinias, e a seus irmãos, e a todos os seus filhos, e a toda a casa dos rechabitas;
4 And I took them into the house of the Lord, into the room of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was near the rulers' room, which was over the room of Maaseiah, the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door;
E os levei á casa do Senhor, á camara dos filhos de Hanan, filho de Jigdalias, homem de Deus, que está junto á camara dos principes, que está sobre a camara de Maaseias, filho de Sallum, guarda do vestibulo:
5 And I put before the sons of the Rechabites basins full of wine and cups, and I said to them, Take some wine.
E puz diante dos filhos da casa dos rechabitas taças cheias de vinho, e copos, e disse-lhes: Bebei vinho.
6 But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:
Porém elles disseram: Não beberemos vinho; porque Jonadab, filho de Rechab, nosso pae, nos mandou, dizendo: Não bebereis vinho, nem vós nem vossos filhos perpetuamente;
7 And you are to make no houses, or put in seed, or get vine-gardens planted, or have any: but all your days you are to go on living in tents, so that you may have a long life in the land where you are living as in a strange country.
Nem edificareis casa, nem semeareis semente, nem plantareis vinha, nem a possuireis; mas habitareis em tenda todos os vossos dias, para que vivaes muitos dias sobre a face da terra, em que vós andaes peregrinando.
8 And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;
Obedecemos pois á voz de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, nosso pae, em tudo quanto nos ordenou; de maneira que não bebemos vinho em todos os nossos dias, nem nós, nem nossas mulheres, nem nossos filhos, nem nossas filhas,
9 Building no houses for ourselves, having no vine-gardens or fields or seed:
Nem edificamos casas para nossa habitação: nem temos vinha, nem campo, nem semente.
10 But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.
E habitamos em tendas, e assim ouvimos e fizemos conforme tudo quanto nos mandou Jonadab, nosso pae.
11 But when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came up into the land, we said, Come, let us go to Jerusalem, away from the army of the Chaldaeans and from the army of the Aramaeans: and so we are living in Jerusalem.
Succedeu, porém, que, subindo Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, a esta terra, dissemos: Vinde, e vamo-nos a Jerusalem, por causa do exercito dos chaldeos, e por causa do exercito dos syros; e assim ficámos em Jerusalem.
12 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
Então veiu a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, dizendo:
13 This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Go and say to the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, Is there no hope of teaching you to give ear to my words? says the Lord.
Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Vae, e dize aos homens de Judah e aos moradores de Jerusalem: Porventura nunca acceitareis ensino, para ouvirdes as minhas palavras? diz o Senhor.
14 The orders which Jonadab, the son of Rechab, gave to his sons to take no wine, are done, and to this day they take no wine, for they do the orders of their father: but I have sent my words to you, getting up early and sending them, and you have not given ear to me.
As palavras de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, que ordenou a seus filhos que não bebessem vinho, foram guardadas; pois não beberam até este dia, antes ouviram o mandamento de seu pae, e eu vos tenho fallado a vós, madrugando e fallando, porém vós não me ouvistes a mim.
15 And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but your ears have not been open, and you have not given attention to me.
E vos enviei a todos os meus servos, os prophetas, madrugando, e enviando, e dizendo: Convertei-vos agora, cada um do seu mau caminho, e fazei boas as vossas acções, e não sigaes a outros deuses para servil-os; e assim ficareis na terra que vos dei a vós e a vossos paes; porém não inclinastes o vosso ouvido, nem me obedecestes a mim
16 Though the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have done the orders of their father which he gave them, this people has not given ear to me:
Porquanto os filhos de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, guardaram o mandamento de seu pae que lhes ordenou; e este povo não me obedeceu:
17 For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send on Judah and on all the people of Jerusalem all the evil which I said I would do to them: because I sent my words to them, but they did not give ear; crying out to them, but they gave no answer.
Por isso assim diz o Senhor, o Deus dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Eis que trarei sobre Judah, e sobre todos os moradores de Jerusalem, todo o mal que fallei contra elles; porquanto lhes tenho fallado, e não ouviram; e clamei a elles, e não responderam.
18 But to the Rechabites Jeremiah said, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Because you have done the orders of Jonadab your father, and have kept his rules, and done everything as he gave you orders to do it;
E á casa dos rechabitas disse Jeremias: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Porquanto obedecestes ao mandamento de Jonadab, vosso pae, e guardastes todos os seus mandamentos, e fizestes conforme tudo quanto vos ordenou,
19 For this reason the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Jonadab, the son of Rechab, will never be without a man to take his place before me.
Portanto assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, Deus d'Israel: Nunca faltará varão a Jonadab, filho de Rechab, que assista perante a minha face todos os dias.
