Ieremia 35
1 KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai i na la o Iehoiakima ke keiki a Iosia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la,
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 O hele oe i ka hale o ka Rekaba, a e olelo aku ia lakou, a e lawe mai ia lakou i ka hale o Iehova, a iloko o kekahi keena, a e hoohainu ia lakou i ka waina.
“Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and bring them into the LORD’s house, into one of the rooms, and give them wine to drink.”
3 Alaila, kii aku la au ia Iaazania i ke keiki a Ieremia, ke keiki a Habazinia, a me kona poe hoahanau, a me kana mau keikikane a pau, a me ko ka hale a pau o ka Rekaba;
Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, with his brothers, all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;
4 A lawe ae la au ia lakou iloko o ka hale o Iehova, a iloko o ke keena o na keiki a Hanana, ke keiki a Igedalia, he kanaka no ke Akua, aia kokoke i ke keena o na'lii, maluna hoi o ke keena o Maaseia ke keiki a Saluma, ke kiaipuka.
and I brought them into the LORD’s house, into the room of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was by the room of the princes, which was above the room of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the threshold.
5 A imua o na kanaka o ka hale o ka Rekaba, kau aku la au i mau ipu i piha i ka waina, a me na kiaha, a i aku la au, E inu oukou i ka waina.
I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said to them, “Drink wine!”
6 Alaila, olelo mai la lakou, Aole makou e inu i ka waina; no ka mea, kauoha mai la o Ionadaba ke keiki a Rekaba ko makou kupuna ia makou, i mai la, Mai inu oukou i ka waina, o oukou, a me ka oukou poe keiki, a i ka manawa pau ole.
But they said, “We will drink no wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying, ‘You shall drink no wine, neither you nor your children, forever.
7 Mai kukulu hale hoi oukou, mai lulu hua, mai kanu pawaina, aole na oukou ia; aka, i ko oukou mau la a pau, e noho oukou ma na halelewa, i nui na la o ko oukou ola ana ma ka aina a oukou i noho malihini ai.
You shall not build a house, sow seed, plant a vineyard, or have any; but all your days you shall dwell in tents, that you may live many days in the land in which you live as nomads.’
8 Pela makou i hoolohe ai i ka leo o Ionadaba, ke keiki a Rekaba, ko makou kupunakane, ma na mea a pau ana i kauoha mai ai ia makou, e inu ole i ka waina i ko makou mau la a pau, o makou a me ka makou poe wahine, a me ka makou poe keikikane a me ka makou poe kaikamahine.
We have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he commanded us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters;
9 Aole hoi e kukulu hale no makou e noho ai iloko; aole hoi o makou pawaiua, aole mahinaai, aole hua.
and not to build houses for ourselves to dwell in. We have no vineyard, field, or seed;
10 Aka, ua noho makou ma na halelewa, a ua hoolohe, a ua hana e like me na mea a pau a Ionadaba, ko makou kupuna i Kauoha mai ai ia makou.
but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 A i ka manawa i pii mai ai i kela aina o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona, alaila, i iho la makou, Ea, o haele kakou i Ierusalema no ka makau i ka poe kaua o ko Kaledea, a no ka makau i ka poe kaua o ko Suria; nolaila makou e noho nei i Ierusalema.
But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, we said, ‘Come! Let’s go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Kasdim, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; so we will dwell at Jerusalem.’”
12 Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Ieremia, i mai la,
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
13 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; O hele e hai aku i na kanaka, i ka Iuda, a me ka poe noho ma Ierusalema, Aole anei oukou e ae i ke ao ana, aole anei oukou e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo? wahi a Iehova.
“The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, “Will you not receive instruction to listen to my words?” says the LORD.
14 O na olelo a Ionadaba, ke keiki a Rekaba ana i kauoha iho ai i kana poe keiki, aole e inu i ka waina, ua malamaia. No ka mea, a hiki mai i keia la, ua inu ole lakou, a ua malama hoi i ke kauoha a ka makua. Aka, ua olelo aku no wau ia oukou, e ala ana i ka wanaao e olelo, aole nae oukou i hoolohe mai ia'u.
“The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab that he commanded his sons, not to drink wine, are performed; and to this day they drink none, for they obey their father’s commandment; but I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking, and you have not listened to me.
15 Ua hoouna aku no hoi au io oukou la, i ka'u poe kauwa a pau, i na kaula, e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna, me ka olelo aku, E hoi mai kela mea keia mea o oukou, mai kona aoao hewa mai, a e hooponopono i ka oukou hana ana; a mai hele mahope o na akua e, e malama ia lakou, a e noho no oukou ma ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai ia oukou, a i ko oukou poe makua; aole nae oukou i haliu mai i ko oukou pepeiao, aole i hoolohe mai ia'u.
I have sent also to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, ‘Every one of you must return now from his evil way, amend your doings, and don’t go after other gods to serve them. Then you will dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers;’ but you have not inclined your ear, nor listened to me.
16 No ka mea, ua malama na keiki a Ionadaba, ke keiki a Rekaba i ke kauoha o ko lakou makua, ana i kauoha ai ia lakou; a ua hoolohe ole keia poe kanaka ia'u:
The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to me.”’
17 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, E lawe mai no wau maluna o ka Iuda, a maluna o ka poe a pau e noho la ma Ierusalema i ka hewa a pau a'u i olelo ai ia lakou: no ka mea, ua olelo no wau ia lakou, aole lakou i lohe mai; ua hea aku au ia lakou, aole lakou i o mai.
“Therefore the LORD, the God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Judah and on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them, but they have not heard; and I have called to them, but they have not answered.’”
18 Olelo ae la o Ieremia i ko ka hale o ka Rekaba, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei; No ka mea, ua hoolohe oukou i ke kauoha a Ionadaba, ko oukou kupunakane, a malama hoi i kona mau kanawai, a ua hana e like me ua mea a pau aua i kauoha mai ai ia oukou;
Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, “The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according to all that he commanded you,’
19 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Aole e nele o Ionadaba, ke keiki a Rekaba, i ke kanaka e ku imua o'u, a hiki i ka manawa pau ole.
therefore the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jonadab the son of Rechab will not lack a man to stand before me forever.’”
