Jeremija 35

1 Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda v dneh Jojakíma, Jošíjevega sina, Judovega kralja, rekoč:

The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying:

2 »Pojdi v hišo Rehábovcev in jim govori in jih privedi v Gospodovo hišo, v eno izmed sob in jim daj piti vino.«

'Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and thou hast spoken with them, and brought them into the house of Jehovah, unto one of the chambers, and caused them to drink wine.'

3 Potem sem vzel Jaazanjá, Jeremijevega sina, sina Habacinjájevega in njegove brate in vse njegove sinove in celotno hišo Rehábovcev;

And I take Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, son of Habazziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and all the house of the Rechabites,

4 in jih privedel v Gospodovo hišo, v sobo sinov Hanána, Jigdaljájevega sina, Božjega moža, ki je bila pri sobi princev, ki je bila nad sobo Šalúmovega sina Maasejája, čuvaja vrat.

and bring them into the house of Jehovah, unto the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God, that [is] near to the chamber of the princes, that [is] above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum, keeper of the threshold;

5 Pred sinove hiše Rehábovcev sem postavil vrče, polne vina in čaše ter jim rekel: »Pijte vino.«

and I put before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets full of wine, and cups, and I say unto them, Drink ye wine.

6 Toda rekli so: »Nobenega vina ne bomo pili, kajti Jonadáb, sin Rehába, naš oče, nam je zapovedal, rekoč: ›Nobenega vina ne boste pili niti vi niti vaši sinovi na veke.

And they say, 'We do not drink wine: for Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, charged us, saying, Ye do not drink wine, ye and your sons — unto the age;

7 Niti ne boste gradili hiše, niti sejali semena, niti sadili vinograda, niti imeli karkoli, temveč boste vse svoje dni prebivali v šotorih, da boste lahko mnogo dni živeli v deželi, kjer ste tujci.‹

and a house ye do not build, and seed ye do not sow, and a vineyard ye do not plant, nor have ye any; for in tents do ye dwell all your days, that ye may live many days on the face of the ground whither ye are sojourning.

8 Tako smo ubogali glas Rehábovega sina Jonadába, našega očeta, v vsem, kar nam je določil, da vse naše dni ne pijemo nobenega vina, ne mi, ne naše žene, ne naši sinovi, niti naše hčere,

'And we hearken to the voice of Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, to all that he commanded us, not to drink wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, and our daughters;

9 niti da si ne gradimo hiš, da bi prebivali v njih, niti nimamo vinograda, niti polja, niti semena,

nor to build houses for our dwelling; and vineyard, and field, and seed, we have none;

10 temveč smo prebivali v šotorih in ubogali in storili glede na vse, kar nam je naš oče Jonadáb zapovedal.

and we dwell in tents, and we hearken, and we do according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us;

11 Toda pripetilo se je, ko je babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar prišel gor v to deželo, da smo rekli: ›Pridimo in pojdimo v Jeruzalem zaradi strahu pred vojsko Kaldejcev in zaradi strahu pred sirsko vojsko‹ in tako prebivajmo pri Jeruzalemu.‹«

and it cometh to pass, in the coming up of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon unto the land, that we say, Come, and we enter Jerusalem, because of the force of the Chaldeans, and because of the force of Aram — and we dwell in Jerusalem.'

12 Potem je prišla beseda od Gospoda Jeremiju, rekoč:

And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying: 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel:

13 »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Pojdite in povejte ljudem Juda in prebivalcem Jeruzalema: ›Ali ne boste sprejeli poučevanja, da prisluhnete mojim besedam?‹ govori Gospod.

'Go, and thou hast said to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Do ye not receive instruction? — to hearken unto My words — an affirmation of Jehovah.

14 ›Besede Rehábovega sina Jonadába, ki jih je zapovedal svojim sinovom, naj ne pijejo vina, se izvršujejo, kajti do današnjega dne ne pijejo, temveč ubogajo zapoved svojega očeta. Vendar sem vam jaz govoril, vzdigujoč zgodaj in govoreč, toda niste mi prisluhnili.

Performed have been the words of Jonadab son of Rechab, when he commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk unto this day, for they have obeyed the command of their father; and I — I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking, and ye have not hearkened unto Me.

15 K vam sem pošiljal tudi vse svoje služabnike preroke, vzdigujoče zgodaj in jih pošiljal, rekoč: ›Vrnite se sedaj, vsakdo ali vsak človek iz svoje zle poti in poboljšajte svoja dejanja in ne pojdite za drugimi bogovi, da jim služite in boste prebivali v deželi, ki sem jo dal vam in vašim očetom.‹ Toda niste nagnili svojega ušesa niti mi niste prisluhnili.

And I send unto you all My servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying: Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way, and amend your doings, yea, ye do not walk after other gods, to serve them, and dwell ye on the ground that I have given to you and to your fathers; and ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto Me.

16 Ker so sinovi Rehábovega sina Jonadába izvajali zapoved svojega očeta, ki jim jo je zapovedal, toda to ljudstvo mi ni prisluhnilo,

'Because the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab have performed the command of their father, that he commanded them, and this people have not hearkened unto Me,

17 zato tako govori Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, privedel bom nad Juda in nad vse prebivalce Jeruzalema, vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njih, ker sem jim govoril, toda niso slišali, in klical k njim, toda niso odgovorili.‹«

therefore thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am bringing in unto Judah, and unto all inhabitants of Jerusalem, all the evil that I have spoken against them, because I have spoken unto them, and they have not hearkened, yea, I call to them, and they have not answered.'

18 Jeremija je hiši Rehábovcev rekel: »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Ker ste ubogali zapoved Jonadába, svojega očeta in se držali vseh njegovih predpisov in storili glede na vse, kar vam je zapovedal,

And to the house of the Rechabites said Jeremiah: 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Because that ye have hearkened unto the command of Jonadab your father, and ye observe all his commands, and do according to all that he commanded you;

19 zato tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Rehábovemu sinu Jonadábu ne bo manjkal moški, da bi stal pred menoj na veke.‹«

therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Of Jonadab son of Rechab one standing before me is not cut off all the days.'
