Jeremiah 35
1 Ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó tọ Jeremiah wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa ní ọjọ́ Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah ọba Juda wí pé:
The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 “Lọ sí ilé àwọn ọmọ Rekabu, kí o sì bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀, kí o sì mú wọn wá sí ilé Olúwa, sí ọ̀kan nínú iyàrá wọ̀n-ọn-nì, kí o sì fún wọn ní ọtí wáìnì mu.”
“Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and bring them into Yahweh’s house, into one of the rooms, and give them wine to drink.”
3 Nígbà náà ni mo mu Jaaṣaniah ọmọ Jeremiah, ọmọ Habasiniah àti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀; àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ilé àwọn ọmọ Rekabu.
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 Mo sì mú wọn wá sí ilé Olúwa sínú iyàrá Hanani ọmọ Igdaliah, ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, tí ó wà lẹ́bàá yàrá àwọn ìjòyè, tí ó wà ní òkè yàrá Maaseiah, ọmọ Ṣallumu olùtọ́jú ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
and I brought them into Yahweh’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 Mo sì gbé ìkòkò tí ó kún fún ọtí wáìnì pẹ̀lú ago ka iwájú àwọn ọmọ Rekabu. Mo sì wí fún wọn pé, “Mu ọtí wáìnì.”
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 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa kì yóò mu ọtí wáìnì nítorí Jonadabu ọmọ Rekabu, baba wa pàṣẹ fún wa pé: ‘Ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ mu ọtí wáìnì ẹ̀yin àti àwọn ọmọ yín láéláé.
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 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ kọ́ ilé tàbí kí ẹ fúnrúgbìn, tàbí kí ẹ gbin ọgbà àjàrà. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ ní ọ̀kankan nínú àwọn ohun wọ̀nyí, ṣùgbọ́n ní gbogbo ọjọ́ yín ni ẹ̀yin ó máa gbé inú àgọ́; kí ẹ̀yin kí ó lè wá ní ọjọ́ púpọ̀ ní ilẹ̀ náà; níbi tí ẹ̀yin ti ń ṣe àtìpó.’
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 Báyìí ni àwa gba ohùn Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu baba wa gbọ́ nínú gbogbo èyí tí ó pàṣẹ fún wa, kí a má mu ọtí wáìnì ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé wa; àwa, àwọn aya wa, àwọn ọmọkùnrin wa, àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin wa.
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 Àti kí a má kọ́ ilé láti gbé; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwa kò ní ọgbà àjàrà tàbí oko, tàbí ohun ọ̀gbìn.
and not to build houses for ourselves to dwell in. We have no vineyard, field, or seed;
10 Ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń gbé inú àgọ́, a sì gbọ́rọ̀, a sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí Jonadabu baba wa pàṣẹ fún wa.
but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli gòkè wá sí ilẹ̀ náà; àwa wí pé, ‘Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sí Jerusalẹmu, nítorí ìbẹ̀rù ogun àwọn ara Siria.’ Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwa sì ń gbé Jerusalẹmu.”
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 Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; so we will dwell at Jerusalem.’”
12 Nígbà yìí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
Then Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
13 “Báyìí ní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí pé, lọ, kí o sì sọ fún àwọn ọkùnrin Juda, àti àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kì yóò ha gba ẹ̀kọ́ láti fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi,’ ni Olúwa wí.
“Yahweh of Armies, 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 Yahweh.
14 ‘Ọ̀rọ̀ Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu tí ó pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé wọn kò gbọdọ̀ mu ọtí wáìnì, ni a mú ṣẹ, wọn kò sì mu ọtí wáìnì títí di òní yìí, nítorí tí wọ́n gba òfin baba wọn. Èmi sì ti ń sọ̀rọ̀ fún un yín, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí mi.
“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 Èmi rán gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ àti àwọn wòlíì mí sí yín pẹ̀lú wí pé, “Ẹ yípadà nísinsin yìí kúrò ní ọ̀nà búburú yín, kí ẹ sì tún ìṣe yín ṣe sí rere. Kí ẹ ma sì ṣe bọ òrìṣà tàbí sìn wọ́n; ẹ̀yin ó sì máa gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà tí mo fi fún un yín àti fún àwọn baba ńlá yín.” Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí mi.
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 Nítòótọ́, àwọn ọmọ Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu pa òfin baba wọn mọ́ tí ó pàṣẹ fún wọn, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí kò pa òfin mi mọ́.’
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 “Nítorí náà, báyìí ni, Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, ‘Fetísílẹ̀! Èmi ó mú gbogbo ohun búburú tí èmi ti sọ wá sórí Juda, àti sórí gbogbo olùgbé Jerusalẹmu nítorí èmi ti bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀: Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò sì dáhùn.’”
“Therefore Yahweh, the God of Armies, 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 Nígbà náà ni Jeremiah wí fún ìdílé Rekabu pé, “Báyìí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí pé: ‘Nítorí tí ẹ̀yin gba òfin Jehonadabu baba yín, tí ẹ sì pa gbogbo rẹ̀ mọ́, tí ẹ sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí èyí tí ó pàṣẹ fún un yín.’
Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, “Yahweh of Armies, 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 Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, pé: ‘Jonadabu ọmọ Rekabu kì yóò fẹ́ ọkùnrin kan kù láti sìn mí.’”
therefore Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jonadab the son of Rechab will not lack a man to stand before me forever.’”
