Jeremiah 35
1 The word that was maad of the Lord to Jeremye, in the daies of Joachym, sone of Josie,
Yei ne asɛm a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ ɛberɛ a na Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim di adeɛ no:
2 kyng of Juda, and seide, Go thou to the hous of Recabitis, and speke thou to hem; and thou schalt brynge hem in to the hous of the Lord, in to o chaumbre of tresouris, and thou schalt yyue to hem to drynke wyn.
“Kɔ Rekabfoɔ abusua no nkyɛn, na to nsa frɛ wɔn na wɔmmra Awurade efie no mpia baako mu, na ma wɔn nsã nnom.”
3 And Y took Jeconye, the sone of Jeremye, sone of Absanye, and hise britheren, and alle the sones of hym, and al the hous of Recabitis.
Enti, mekɔpɛɛ Habasinia babarima Yeremia babarima Yaasania ne ne nuammarima ne ne mmammarima nyinaa, Rekabfoɔ abusuadɔm no.
4 And Y ledde hem in to the hous of the Lord, to the treserie of the sones of Eman, sone of Godolie, the man of God; which treserie was bisidis the treserie of princes, aboue the tresour of Maasie, sone of Sellum, that was kepere of the vestiarie.
Mede wɔn baa Awurade efie, na mede wɔn kɔɔ Onyame onipa Yigdalia babarima Hanan mmammarima dan mu. Ɛno na ɛdi adwumayɛfoɔ dan a ɛsi ɔpono ano hwɛfoɔ Salum babarima Maaseia dan atifi no so.
5 And Y settide bifore the sones of the hous of Recabitis pecis, and grete cowpis ful of wyn; and Y seide to hem, Drinke ye wyn.
Afei mede nkuruwa ne nkora a nsã wɔ mu bɛsisii Rekabfoɔ abusua mma no anim na meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnom nsã kakra.”
6 And thei answeriden, We schulen not drinke wyn; for whi Jonadab, oure fadir, the sone of Recab, comaundide to vs, and seide, Ye schulen not drinke wyn, ye and youre sones, `til in to withouten ende;
Nanso wɔbuaa sɛ, “Yɛnnom nsã, ɛfiri sɛ yɛn nana Rekab babarima Yehonadab maa yɛn ɔhyɛ nsɛm yi sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ mo anaa mo asefoɔ nom nsã.
7 and ye schulen not bilde an hous, and ye schulen not sowe seed, and ye schulen not plaunte vynes, nether schulen haue, but ye schulen dwelle in tabernaclis in alle youre daies, that ye lyue many daies on the face of erthe, in which ye goen in pilgrymage.
Na afei ɛnsɛ sɛ mosisi afie, modua anaa moyɛ bobe nturo, ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ yeinom mu biara, na mmom montena ntomadan mu ɛberɛ biara. Ɛno na mo nkwa nna bɛware, wɔ asase a moyɛ atutenafoɔ wɔ so no so.’
8 Therfor we obeieden to the vois of Jonadab, oure fadir, the sone of Recab, in alle thingis whiche he comaundide to vs; so that we drunken not wyn in alle oure dayes, we, and oure wymmen, oure sones, and douytris;
Yɛatie biribiara a yɛn nana Rekab babarima Yonadab hyɛɛ yɛn no. Na yɛn, yɛn yerenom, mmammarima ne mmammaa nnom nsã da
9 and we bildiden not housis to dwelle, and we hadden not a vyner, and a feeld, and seed;
na yɛnsisii afie ntenaa mu anaa yɛnnyaa bobe nturo anaa mfuo anaa nnɔbaeɛ.
10 but we dwelliden in tabernaclis, and weren obeiynge, and diden bi alle thingis, whiche Jonadab, oure fadir, comaundide to vs.
Yɛatenatena ntomadan mu, na yɛadi biribiara a yɛn nana Yehonadab hyɛɛ yɛn no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
11 But whanne Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, hadde stied to this lond, we seiden, Come ye, and entre we in to Jerusalem, fro the face of the oost of Caldeis, and fro the face of the oost of Sirie; and we dwelliden in Jerusalem.
Nanso, ɛberɛ a Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar tuu asase yi so sa no, yɛkaa sɛ, ‘Mommra, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ Yerusalem na yɛdwane firi Babiloniafoɔ ne Aramfoɔ akodɔm anim.’ Ɛno enti yɛaka Yerusalem.”
12 And the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye,
Afei, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn sɛ,
13 and seide, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Go thou, and seie to the men of Juda, and to the dwelleris of Jerusalem, Whether ye schulen not take techyng, that ye obeie to my wordis, seith the Lord?
“Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, seɛ: Kɔ na kɔka kyerɛ mmarima a wɔwɔ Yuda ne Yerusalemfoɔ sɛ, ‘Morensua biribi na morentie mʼasɛm anaa?’ Awurade na ɔseɛ.
14 The wordis of Jonadab, sone of Rechab, hadden the maistrie, whiche he comaundide to hise sones, that thei schulden not drynke wyn; and thei drynken not, `til to this dai; for thei obeieden to the comaundement of her fadir; but Y spak to you, and Y roos ful eerli, and spake, and ye obeieden not to me.
‘Rekab ba Yehonadab hyɛɛ ne mmammarima sɛ wɔnnom nsã, na wɔadi saa ɔhyɛ yi so. Ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ wɔnnom nsã, ɛfiri sɛ wɔdi wɔn agyanom ahyɛdeɛ so. Na makasa akyerɛ mo mpɛn bebree, nanso montiee me.
15 And Y sente to you alle my seruauntis profetis, and Y roos ful eerli, and Y sente, and seide, Be ye conuertid, ech man fro his worste weye, and make ye good youre studies, and nyle ye sue alien goddis, nether worschipe ye hem, and ye schulen dwelle in the lond, which Y yaf to you, and to youre fadris; and ye bowiden not youre eere, nether herden me.
Mesomaa mʼasomfoɔ adiyifoɔ nyinaa baa mo nkyɛn mpɛn bebree. Wɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ mo mu biara sesa firi nʼamumuyɛ akwan ho, na moma mo akwan tene; monni anyame foforɔ akyi na monnsom wɔn. Ɛno na mobɛtena asase a mede ama mo ne mo agyanom yi so.” Nanso mommuaa me na monntiee me.
16 Therfor the sones of Jonadab, sone of Recab, maden stidfast the comaundement of her fadir, which he comaundide to hem; but this puple obeiede not to me.
Rekab babarima Yehonadab asefoɔ adi ahyɛdeɛ a wɔn agyanom de maa wɔn no so, nanso saa nnipa yi ntie mʼasɛm.’
17 Therfor the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe on Juda, and on alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, al the turment which Y spak ayens hem; for Y spak to hem, and thei herden not; Y clepide hem, and thei answeriden not to me.
“Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ: ‘Montie! Mede amanehunu biara a mahyɛ ama Yuda ne obiara a ɔte Yerusalem no bɛba wɔn so. Mekasa kyerɛɛ wɔn, nanso wɔantie, mefrɛɛ wɔn nanso wɔannye so.’”
18 Forsothe Jeremye seide to the hous of Recabitis, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, For that that ye obeieden to the comaundement of Jonadab, youre fadir, and kepten alle hise comaundementis, and diden alle thingis, whiche he comaundide to you;
Afei, Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ Rekab abusua no sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ: ‘Moayɛ ɔsetie ama mo nana Yehonadab ahyɛdeɛ no, na moadi ne nkyerɛkyerɛ so, na moayɛ biribiara a ɔhyɛɛ mo no.’
19 therfor the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, A man of the generacioun of Jonadab, sone of Recab, schal not faile stondynge in my siyt in alle daies.
Ɛno enti, deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ nie: ‘Rekab babarima Yehonadab bɛnya ɔbarima a ɔbɛsom me ɛberɛ biara.’”
