< Irmiya 35 >

1 Ga maganar da ta zo wa Irmiya daga wurin Ubangiji a lokacin mulkin Yehohiyakim ɗan Yosiya sarkin Yahuda.
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
2 “Ka tafi wurin iyalin Rekabawa ka gayyace su su zo a ɗaya daga cikin ɗakunan da suke gefe a gidan Ubangiji ka kuma ba su ruwan inabi su sha.”
“Go to the house of the Rechabites, speak to them, and bring them to one of the chambers of the house of the LORD to offer them a drink of wine.”
3 Sai na tafi don in kawo Ya’azaniya ɗan Irmiya, ɗan Habazziniya, da’yan’uwansa da kuma dukan’ya’yansa maza, dukan iyalin Rekabawa.
So I took Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons—the entire house of the Rechabites—
4 Na kawo su cikin gidan Ubangiji, a cikin ɗakin’ya’yan Hanan ɗan Igdaliya maza mutumin Allah. Ɗakin ne kusa da ɗakin fadawa, wanda yake bisa na Ma’asehiya ɗan Shallum mai tsaron ƙofa.
and I brought them into the house of the LORD, to a chamber occupied by the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God. This room was near the chamber of the officials, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum the doorkeeper.
5 Sai na ajiye ƙwarya cike da ruwan inabi da waɗansu kwaf a gaban iyalin Rekabawan na kuma ce musu, “Ku sha ruwan inabin.”
Then I set pitchers full of wine and some cups before the men of the house of the Rechabites, and I said to them, “Drink some wine.”
6 Amma sai suka amsa suka ce, “Ba ma shan ruwan inabi, domin kakanmu Yehonadab ɗan Rekab ya umarce mu cewa, ‘Ko ku, ko zuriyarku kada ku sha ruwan inabi.
“We do not drink wine,” they replied, “for our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab commanded us, ‘Neither you nor your descendants are ever to drink wine.
7 Haka kuma ba za ku gina gidaje, ku dasa iri ko ku nome gonakin inabi ba; kada ku kasance da wani daga cikin waɗannan abubuwa, amma dole kullum ku zauna a tentuna. Ta haka za ku yi dogon rai a cikin ƙasar baƙuncinku.’
Nor are you ever to build a house or sow seed or plant a vineyard. Those things are not for you. Instead, you must live in tents all your lives, so that you may live a long time in the land where you wander.’
8 Mun yi biyayya da kome da kakanmu Yehonadab ɗan Rekab ya umarce mu. Mu ko matanmu ko’ya’yanmu maza da mata ba mu taɓa shan ruwan inabi ba
And we have obeyed the voice of our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab in all he commanded us. So we have not drunk wine all our lives—neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters.
9 ba mu kuma gina gidaje mu zauna a ciki ba ko mu yi gonakin inabi, gonaki ko hatsi ba.
Nor have we built houses in which to live, and we have not owned any vineyards or fields or crops.
10 Mun yi rayuwarmu a cikin tentuna mun kuma yi biyayya ƙwarai da kowane abin da kakanmu Yehonadab ya umarce mu.
But we have lived in tents and have obeyed and done exactly as our forefather Jonadab commanded us.
11 Amma da Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya kawo wa ƙasan nan hari, sai muka ce, ‘Ku zo, dole mu tafi Urushalima don mu tsira daga Babiloniyawa da kuma sojojin Arameyawa.’ Saboda haka ne muke a Urushalima.”
So when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched into the land, we said: ‘Come, let us go into Jerusalem to escape the armies of the Chaldeans and the Arameans.’ So we have remained in Jerusalem.”
12 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Irmiya cewa,
Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
13 “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ka tafi ka faɗa wa mutanen Yahuda da kuma mutanen Urushalima cewa, ‘Ba za ku koyi darasi ku kuma yi biyayya da maganata ba?’ In ji Ubangiji.
“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem: ‘Will you not accept discipline and obey My words?’ declares the LORD.
14 ‘Yehonadab ɗan Rekab ya umarci’ya’yansa maza kada su sha ruwan inabi sun kuma kiyaye wannan umarni. Har yă zuwa yau ba sa shan ruwan inabi, domin sun yi biyayya da umarnin kakansu. Amma na yi muku magana sau da sau, duk da haka ba ku yi biyayya ba.
The words of Jonadab son of Rechab have been carried out. He commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk it to this very day because they have obeyed the command of their forefather. But I have spoken to you again and again, and you have not obeyed Me!
15 Sau da sau na aika dukan bayina annabawa gare ku. Suka ce, “Kowannenku ya juyo daga mugayen hanyoyinsa ya sabunta ayyukansa; kada yă bi waɗansu alloli don yă bauta musu. Ta haka za ku zauna a cikin ƙasar da na ba ku da kuma kakanninku.” Amma ba ku saurara ba, ba ku kuwa ji ni ba.
Again and again I have sent you all My servants the prophets, proclaiming: ‘Turn now, each of you, from your wicked ways, and correct your actions. Do not go after other gods to serve them. Live in the land that I have given to you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear or listened to Me.
16 Zuriyar Yehonadab ɗan Rekab sun yi biyayya da umarnin da kakansu ya ba su, amma waɗannan mutane ba su yi mini biyayya ba.’
Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to Me.
17 “Saboda haka, ga abin da Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘Ku saurara! Zan kawo wa Yahuda da kuma kowane mutumin da yake zama a Urushalima kowace masifar da na ambata a kansu. Na yi musu magana, amma ba su saurara ba; na kira su, amma ba su amsa ba.’”
Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring to Judah and to all the residents of Jerusalem all the disaster I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them but they have not obeyed, and I have called to them but they have not answered.’”
18 Sai Irmiya ya ce wa iyalin Rekabawa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘Kun yi biyayya da umarnin kakanku Yehonadab kuka kuma kiyaye dukan umarnansa kuka yi kome bisa ga tsari.’
Then Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites: “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the command of your forefather Jonadab and have kept all his commandments and have done all that he charged you to do,
19 Saboda haka, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘Yehonadab ɗan Rekab ba zai taɓa rasa mutumin da zai yi mini hidima ba.’”
this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Jonadab son of Rechab will never fail to have a man to stand before Me.’”
