Jeremiah 35
1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yhwh in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
Ko te kupu i puta mai ki a Heremaia na Ihowa, i nga ra o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura; i mea ia,
2 Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of Yhwh, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink.
Haere ki te whare o nga Rekapi, korero atu ki a ratou, ka kawe i a ratou ki te whare o Ihowa, ki tetahi o nga ruma, ka whakainu i a ratou ki te waina.
3 Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;
Na ka tikina e ahau a Iaatania tama a Heremaia, tama a Hapatinia, ratou ko ona teina, ko ana tama katoa, ko te whare katoa hoki o nga Rekapi;
4 And I brought them into the house of Yhwh, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door:
A kawea ana ratou e ahau ki te whare o Ihowa, ki te ruma o nga tama a Hanana tama a Ikiraria, he tangata na te Atua, ki tera i te taha o te ruma o nga rangatira, i runga ake i te ruma o te kaitiaki tatau, o Maaheia tama a Harumu:
5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups, and I said unto them, Drink ye wine.
A whakaturia ana e ahau etahi oko, ki tonu i te waina, me etahi kapu ki te aroaro o nga tama o te whare o nga Rekapi. Na ka mea atu ahau ki a ratou, Inumia e koutou he waina.
6 But they said, We will drink no wine: for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons for ever:
Ano ra ko ratou, E kore matou e inu waina; i ako hoki to matou papa, a Ionarapa, tama a Rekapa, ki a matou, i mea, Kei inu waina koutou ko a koutou tamariki a ake ake:
7 Neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any: but all your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land where ye be strangers.
Kaua hoki koutou e hanga whare, e whakato purapura, e whakato mara waina ranei, kaua hoki he pena ma koutou; engari, i o koutou ra katoa, me noho teneti; kia maha ai nga ra e ora ai koutou ki te mata o te oneone e noho manene nei koutou.
8 Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor our daughters;
Na rongo tonu matou ki te reo o to matou papa, o Ionarapa tama a Rekapa, ki nga mea katoa i whakahau ai ia ki a matou, kia kaua e inu waina i o matou ra katoa, matou, a matou wahine, a matou tama, a matou tamahine;
9 Nor to build houses for us to dwell in: neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
Kia kaua ano e hanga whare hei nohoanga mo matou: kahore hoki a matou mara waina, mara ke ranei, purapura ranei;
10 But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
Engari ko o matou nohoanga he teneti, rongo tonu matou, mahi tonu i nga mea katoa i whakahaua e to matou papa, e Ionarapa, ki a matou.
11 But it came to pass, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.
Otiia, i te whakaekenga a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona i te whenua, ka mea matou, Haere mai, haere tatou ki Hiruharama, kei mate i te ope a nga Karari, i te ope hoki a nga Hiriani; na noho ana matou i Hiruharama.
12 Then came the word of Yhwh unto Jeremiah, saying,
Katahi ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia; ka mea ia,
13 Thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith Yhwh.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; Haere, mea atu ki nga tangata o Hura, ki te hunga hoki e noho ana i Hiruharama, E kore ianei koutou e manako ki te ako, e rongo ki aku kupu? e ai ta Ihowa.
14 The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed; for unto this day they drink none, but obey their father’s commandment: notwithstanding I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye hearkened not unto me.
Kua tutuki nga kupu a Ionarapa tama a Rekapa i whakahau ai ia ki ana tamariki kia kaua e inu waina; kihai hoki ratou i inu a taea noatia tenei ra, no te mea e whakarongo ana ratou ki te ako a to ratou papa: ko ahau ia, i korero ahau ki a koutou, moata ai i te ata ka korero; heoi kihai koutou i rongo ki ahau.
15 I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.
I unga atu ano e ahau aku pononga katoa, nga poropiti, maranga wawe ana ahau, unga ana i a ratou, ki a koutou, me te ki atu, Tahuri mai koutou, e tera, e tera o koutou i o koutou ara kino, ka whakapai i a koutou mahi, kaua hoki e whai ki nga atu a ke, kaua e mahi ki a ratou, a ka noho koutou ki te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki a koutou ko o koutou matua: heoi kihai i anga mai o koutou taringa, kihai hoki i rongo ki ahau.
16 Because the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father, which he commanded them; but this people hath not hearkened unto me:
Na, kua whakamana nei e nga tama a Ionarapa tama a Rekapa te ako a to ratou papa i ako ai ia ki a ratou, engari ko tenei iwi, kihai i rongo ki ahau:
17 Therefore thus saith Yhwh God of Armies, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them: because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; Nana, ka kawea mai e ahau ki a Hura, ki nga tangata katoa hoki o Hiruharama, nga kino katoa i korerotia e ahau mo ratou: no te mea i korero ahau ki a ratou, a kihai i rongo; i karanga ahau ki a ratou, a kihai ratou i whakahoki kupu mai.
18 And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Because ye have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he hath commanded you:
Na ka mea a Heremaia ki te whare o nga Rekapi, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; I te mea i rongo koutou ki te ako a to koutou papa, a Ionarapa, i pupuri hoki i ana ako katoa, i mahi i nga mea katoa i akona e ia ki a kou tou;
19 Therefore thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me for ever.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: E kore e kore he tangata ma Ionarapa tama a Rekapa, hei tu ki toku aroaro i nga ra katoa.
