यर्मिया 35
1 यहूदाका राजा योशियाहका छोरा यहोयाकीमको शासनकालमा यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर परमप्रभुको वचन आयो,
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
2 “रेकाबीका परिवारहरूकहाँ जा र तिनीहरूसित बात गर् । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूलाई मेरो मन्दिरमा लिएर आइज, त्यहाँको एउटा कोठामा राख, र तिनहरूलाई दाखमद्य पिउन दे ।”
“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 त्यसैले मैले यर्मियाका छोरा, हबसिन्याहका नाति याजन्याह र तिनका भाइहरू, तिनका सबै छोरा र रेकाबीहरूका सबै परिवारलाई ल्याएँ ।
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 मैले तिनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा परमेश्वरका मानिस यिग्दल्याहका छोरा हानानका छोराहरूको कोठामा लगेँ । यी कोठाहरू अगुवाहरूको कोठाको छेउमा थिए, जुन शल्लूमका छोरा मासेयाह द्वारपालको कोठाको मास्तिर थियो ।
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 तब मैले रेकाबीहरूका सामु दाखमद्यले भरिएका कचौरा र गिलासहरू राखिदिएँ, र तिनीहरूलाई भनें, “अलिकति दाखमद्य पिओ ।”
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 तर तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी दाखमद्य पिउनेछैनौं, किनकि रेकाबका छोरा हाम्रा पुर्खा योनादाबले हामीलाई आज्ञा दिए, 'तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सन्तानले कहिल्यै पनि दाखमद्य नपिउनू ।’
“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 साथै, कुनै घरहरू नबनाओ, बीउ नरोप वा दाखबारी नलगाओ । यो तिमीहरूका लागि होइन । किनकि आफ्नो जीवनभर तिमीहरू पालमा बस्नुपर्छ, ताकि तिमीहरू विदेशीहरूको रूपमा बसिरहेका देशमा धेरै दिन बाँच्न सक्नेछौ ।'
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 हामी, हाम्रा पत्नीहरू, हाम्रा छोराछोरीहरूले आफ्नो जीवनभरि कहिल्यै दाखमद्य पिउनुहुँदैन भन्ने हाम्रा पुर्खा रेकाबका छोरा योनादाबले हामीलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञा हामीले मानेका छौं ।
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 बस्नको लागि हामी कहिल्यै घरहरू बनाउनेछैनौं, र हाम्रो सम्पत्तिको रूपमा दाखबारी, जग्गाजमिन वा बीउ हुनेछैन ।
Nor have we built houses in which to live, and we have not owned any vineyards or fields or crops.
10 हामी पालमा बसेका छौं, र हाम्रा पुर्खा योनादाबले हामीलाई दिएका सबै आज्ञा हामीले पालन गरेका छौं ।
But we have lived in tents and have obeyed and done exactly as our forefather Jonadab commanded us.
11 तर जब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरले यस देशलाई आक्रमण गरे, तब हामीले भन्यौँ, 'आओ, कल्दी र अरामी सेनाबाट उम्कन हामी यरूशलेम जाऔं ।' त्यसैले हामी यरूशलेममा बसिरहेका छौं ।”
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 तब परमप्रभुको वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
13 “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः जा र यहूदाका मानिसहरू र यरूशलेमका बासिन्दालाई यसो भन्, 'के तिमीहरू सुधारलाई स्वीकार गर्दैनौ र मेरा वचन सुन्दैनौ? यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।
“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 दाखदमद्य नपिउनू भनेर रेकाबका छोरा योनादाबले आफ्ना छोराहरूलाई आज्ञाको रूपमा दिएको वचनलाई आजको दिनसम्म पालन गरिएको छ । तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूको आज्ञा मानेका छन् । तर मेरो विषयमा म आफैंले तिमीहरूका लागि निरन्तर घोषणा गरिरहेको छु तर तिमीहरू मेरा कुरा सुन्दैनौ ।
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 मैले तिमीहरूकहाँ मेरा सबै दास, अगमवक्ताहरू पठाएँ । यसो भन्न मैले तिनीहरूलाई निरन्तर पठाएँ, 'हरेक मानिस आफ्नो दुष्ट चालबाट फर्कोस् र त्यसले असल कामहरू गरोस् । कोही पनि अरू देवताहरूको पछि लाग्ने र तिनीहरूको पुजा गर्ने काम नगरोस् । बरु, मैले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएको देशमा फर्केर आओ ।' तापनि तिमीहरूले मेरो कुरा सुन्दैनौ वा ध्यानै दिंदैनौ ।
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 रेकाबका छोरा योनादाबका सन्तानहरूले आफ्ना पुर्खाले तिनीहरूलाई दिएका आज्ञा मानेका छन्, तर यी मानिसले मेरो कुरा सुन्न इन्कार गर्छन् ।'”
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 त्यसैले परमप्रभु सर्वशक्तिमान् परमेश्वर, इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'हेर, यहूदा र यरूशलेममा बसोबास गर्ने हरेकमाथि मैले तिनीहरूको विरुद्धमा घोषणा गरेका विपत्तीहरू ल्याउँदैछु, किनकि मैले तिनीहरूलाई बोलें, तर तिनीहरूले सुनेनन् । मैले तिनीहरूलाई बोलाएँ, तर तिनीहरूले जवाफै दिएनन् ।'”
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 यर्मियाले रेकाबीहरूको परिवारलाई भने, “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरूले आफ्ना पुर्खा योनादाबका आज्ञाहरू सुनेका छौ र ती सबै पालन गरेका छौ— उसले तिमीहरूलाई आज्ञा गरेका सबै कुरा तिमीहरूले पालन गरेका छौ—
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 त्यसैले सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'रेकाबका छोरा योनादाबको वंशमा मेरो सेवा गर्न सधैं कोही न कोही हुनेछ' ।”
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.’”
