Jeremiah 35

1 [Several years earlier, ] when Jehoiakim was the King of Judah, Yahweh gave me this message:

Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda v dneh Jojakíma, Jošíjevega sina, Judovega kralja, rekoč:

2 “Go to the place where families of the Rechab clan live. Invite them to my temple. [When they arrive, ] take them into one of the inside rooms and offer them [some] wine.”

»Pojdi v hišo Rehábovcev in jim govori in jih privedi v Gospodovo hišo, v eno izmed sob in jim daj piti vino.«

3 So I went to see Jaazaniah and all his brothers and sons who represented the Rechab clan. Jaazaniah was the son of [another man named] Jeremiah and grandson of Habazziniah.

Potem sem vzel Jaazanjá, Jeremijevega sina, sina Habacinjájevega in njegove brate in vse njegove sinove in celotno hišo Rehábovcev;

4 I took them to the temple, [and we went] into the room where the sons of Igdaliah’s son Hanan, who was a prophet, stayed. That room was next to the room that was used by the men who were in charge of the entrances to the temple. It was above the room that belonged to Maaseiah, who was the temple gatekeeper and the son of Shallum.

in jih privedel v Gospodovo hišo, v sobo sinov Hanána, Jigdaljájevega sina, Božjega moža, ki je bila pri sobi princev, ki je bila nad sobo Šalúmovega sina Maasejája, čuvaja vrat.

5 I set jugs of wine in front of them and urged them to drink some,

Pred sinove hiše Rehábovcev sem postavil vrče, polne vina in čaše ter jim rekel: »Pijte vino.«

6 but they refused. They said, “We do not drink wine, because our ancestor Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, commanded us, saying ‘You and your descendants must never drink wine.

Toda rekli so: »Nobenega vina ne bomo pili, kajti Jonadáb, sin Rehába, naš oče, nam je zapovedal, rekoč: ›Nobenega vina ne boste pili niti vi niti vaši sinovi na veke.

7 And you must not build houses or plant vineyards or [other] crops. Instead, you must always live in tents. If you obey those commands, you all will live for many years in this land.’

Niti ne boste gradili hiše, niti sejali semena, niti sadili vinograda, niti imeli karkoli, temveč boste vse svoje dni prebivali v šotorih, da boste lahko mnogo dni živeli v deželi, kjer ste tujci.‹

8 [So] we have obeyed him in all those matters. We have never drunk wine. Our wives and our sons and our daughters [have also never drunk wine].

Tako smo ubogali glas Rehábovega sina Jonadába, našega očeta, v vsem, kar nam je določil, da vse naše dni ne pijemo nobenega vina, ne mi, ne naše žene, ne naši sinovi, niti naše hčere,

9 We have not built houses or planted vineyards or [other] crops or [worked in] fields.

niti da si ne gradimo hiš, da bi prebivali v njih, niti nimamo vinograda, niti polja, niti semena,

10 We have lived in tents. We have obeyed all the commands that Jehonadab, our ancestor, gave us.

temveč smo prebivali v šotorih in ubogali in storili glede na vse, kar nam je naš oče Jonadáb zapovedal.

11 But when [the army of] King Nebuchadnezzar attacked this country, we said, ‘We must go to Jerusalem to escape from the armies of Babylonia and Syria.’ So, [we came] to Jerusalem and we are living [here].”

Toda pripetilo se je, ko je babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar prišel gor v to deželo, da smo rekli: ›Pridimo in pojdimo v Jeruzalem zaradi strahu pred vojsko Kaldejcev in zaradi strahu pred sirsko vojsko‹ in tako prebivajmo pri Jeruzalemu.‹«

12 Then Yahweh gave this message to me: “This is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people say that they belong to], say:

Potem je prišla beseda od Gospoda Jeremiju, rekoč:

13 'Go and tell this to the people in Jerusalem and in [other places in] Judah: “Why do you not [RHQ] listen to me or learn something about how to obey me?

»Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Pojdite in povejte ljudem Juda in prebivalcem Jeruzalema: ›Ali ne boste sprejeli poučevanja, da prisluhnete mojim besedam?‹ govori Gospod.

14 The Rechab clan still do not drink wine, because their ancestor Jehonadab told them to not do that. [In contrast], I have spoken to you many times, but you refuse to obey me.

›Besede Rehábovega sina Jonadába, ki jih je zapovedal svojim sinovom, naj ne pijejo vina, se izvršujejo, kajti do današnjega dne ne pijejo, temveč ubogajo zapoved svojega očeta. Vendar sem vam jaz govoril, vzdigujoč zgodaj in govoreč, toda niste mi prisluhnili.

15 Many times I sent prophets to you. They told you, 'Turn away from your wicked behavior, and do things that you should do. Stop worshiping other gods, in order that you will be able to live [peacefully] in this land that I gave to you and your ancestors.' But you would not pay attention to what I said or obey me.

K vam sem pošiljal tudi vse svoje služabnike preroke, vzdigujoče zgodaj in jih pošiljal, rekoč: ›Vrnite se sedaj, vsakdo ali vsak človek iz svoje zle poti in poboljšajte svoja dejanja in ne pojdite za drugimi bogovi, da jim služite in boste prebivali v deželi, ki sem jo dal vam in vašim očetom.‹ Toda niste nagnili svojega ušesa niti mi niste prisluhnili.

16 The descendants of Jehonadab have obeyed their ancestor, but you have refused to pay attention to what I told you.

Ker so sinovi Rehábovega sina Jonadába izvajali zapoved svojega očeta, ki jim jo je zapovedal, toda to ljudstvo mi ni prisluhnilo,

17 Therefore, this is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom you Israeli people [say you belong to], say: 'You have refused to listen to me and you did not answer when I called you. Therefore, I will cause the people in Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah to experience all the disasters that I said that I would cause to happen.'” '”

zato tako govori Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, privedel bom nad Juda in nad vse prebivalce Jeruzalema, vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njih, ker sem jim govoril, toda niso slišali, in klical k njim, toda niso odgovorili.‹«

18 Then I turned to the Rechab clan and said, “This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israelis [say we belong to], says: ‘You have obeyed what your ancestor Jehonadab told you. You have obeyed all his instructions.

Jeremija je hiši Rehábovcev rekel: »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Ker ste ubogali zapoved Jonadába, svojega očeta in se držali vseh njegovih predpisov in storili glede na vse, kar vam je zapovedal,

19 Therefore, this is what I say: “There will always be descendants of Jehonadab who will do work for me.”’”

zato tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Rehábovemu sinu Jonadábu ne bo manjkal moški, da bi stal pred menoj na veke.‹«
