Jeremias 35
1 A palavra que do Senhor veiu a Jeremias, nos dias de Joaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judah, dizendo:
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, saying:
2 Vae á casa dos rechabitas, e falla com elles, e leva-os á casa do Senhor, a uma das camaras e dá-lhes vinho a beber.
“Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and lead them into the house of the Lord, into one of the halls of the treasuries. And you shall give them wine to drink.”
3 Então tomei a Jasanias, filho de Jeremias, filho de Habazinias, e a seus irmãos, e a todos os seus filhos, e a toda a casa dos rechabitas;
And so I took Jaazaniah, the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers, and all his sons, and the entire house of the Rechabites,
4 E os levei á casa do Senhor, á camara dos filhos de Hanan, filho de Jigdalias, homem de Deus, que está junto á camara dos principes, que está sobre a camara de Maaseias, filho de Sallum, guarda do vestibulo:
and I led them into the house of the Lord, to the treasury of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which was near the treasury of the princes, above the storehouse of Maaseiah, the son of Shallum, who was the guardian of the entrance.
5 E puz diante dos filhos da casa dos rechabitas taças cheias de vinho, e copos, e disse-lhes: Bebei vinho.
And I placed before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls filled with wine, and chalices. And I said to them, “Drink wine.”
6 Porém elles disseram: Não beberemos vinho; porque Jonadab, filho de Rechab, nosso pae, nos mandou, dizendo: Não bebereis vinho, nem vós nem vossos filhos perpetuamente;
And they responded: “We will not drink wine. For Jonadab, the son of Rechab, our father, instructed us, saying: ‘You shall not drink wine, you and your sons, in perpetuity.
7 Nem edificareis casa, nem semeareis semente, nem plantareis vinha, nem a possuireis; mas habitareis em tenda todos os vossos dias, para que vivaes muitos dias sobre a face da terra, em que vós andaes peregrinando.
And you shall not build houses, and you shall not sow any seeds, and you shall not plant or have vineyards. Instead, you shall live in tents all your days, so that you may live many days upon the face of the earth, in which you are sojourners.’
8 Obedecemos pois á voz de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, nosso pae, em tudo quanto nos ordenou; de maneira que não bebemos vinho em todos os nossos dias, nem nós, nem nossas mulheres, nem nossos filhos, nem nossas filhas,
Therefore, we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he has commanded us, so that we do not drink wine all our days, we and our wives, our sons and daughters.
9 Nem edificamos casas para nossa habitação: nem temos vinha, nem campo, nem semente.
And we do not build houses in which to live. And we do not have vineyard, or field, or seed to sow.
10 E habitamos em tendas, e assim ouvimos e fizemos conforme tudo quanto nos mandou Jonadab, nosso pae.
Instead, we live in tents, and we have been obedient in accord with all that Jonadab, our father, has instructed us.
11 Succedeu, porém, que, subindo Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, a esta terra, dissemos: Vinde, e vamo-nos a Jerusalem, por causa do exercito dos chaldeos, e por causa do exercito dos syros; e assim ficámos em Jerusalem.
But when Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, had ascended to our land, we said: ‘Come and let us enter into Jerusalem, before the face of the army of the Chaldeans, and before the face of the army of Syria.’ And we have remained in Jerusalem.”
12 Então veiu a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, dizendo:
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
13 Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Vae, e dize aos homens de Judah e aos moradores de Jerusalem: Porventura nunca acceitareis ensino, para ouvirdes as minhas palavras? diz o Senhor.
“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Go, and say to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Will you not accept discipline, so that you obey my words, says the Lord?
14 As palavras de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, que ordenou a seus filhos que não bebessem vinho, foram guardadas; pois não beberam até este dia, antes ouviram o mandamento de seu pae, e eu vos tenho fallado a vós, madrugando e fallando, porém vós não me ouvistes a mim.
The words of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, in which he instructed his sons, so that they would not drink wine, have prevailed. And they have not drunk wine, even to this day. For they have obeyed the instruction of their father. But I have spoken to you, rising and speaking from early morning, and you did not obey me.
15 E vos enviei a todos os meus servos, os prophetas, madrugando, e enviando, e dizendo: Convertei-vos agora, cada um do seu mau caminho, e fazei boas as vossas acções, e não sigaes a outros deuses para servil-os; e assim ficareis na terra que vos dei a vós e a vossos paes; porém não inclinastes o vosso ouvido, nem me obedecestes a mim
And I have sent to you all my servants, the prophets, rising at first light, and sending, and saying: ‘Convert, each one from his wicked way, and make your intentions good. And do not choose to follow strange gods, nor shall you worship them. And then you shall live in the land which I gave to you and to your fathers.’ And yet you have not inclined your ear, and you have not heeded me.
16 Porquanto os filhos de Jonadab, filho de Rechab, guardaram o mandamento de seu pae que lhes ordenou; e este povo não me obedeceu:
So the sons of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, have remained firm in the commandment of their father, which he instructed to them, while this people has not been obedient to me.
17 Por isso assim diz o Senhor, o Deus dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Eis que trarei sobre Judah, e sobre todos os moradores de Jerusalem, todo o mal que fallei contra elles; porquanto lhes tenho fallado, e não ouviram; e clamei a elles, e não responderam.
For this reason, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead over Judah and over all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every evil that I have declared against them. For I have spoken to them, and they have not listened. I have called to them, and they have not responded to me.”
18 E á casa dos rechabitas disse Jeremias: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus de Israel: Porquanto obedecestes ao mandamento de Jonadab, vosso pae, e guardastes todos os seus mandamentos, e fizestes conforme tudo quanto vos ordenou,
Then Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites: “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab, your father, and have kept all his precepts, and have done all that he has instructed you,
19 Portanto assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, Deus d'Israel: Nunca faltará varão a Jonadab, filho de Rechab, que assista perante a minha face todos os dias.
because of this, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: There will not be a man lacking from the stock of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, standing in my sight, for all days.”
