Jeremia 35
1 Ty tsara’ Iehovà niheo am’ Iirmeà tañ’andro’ Iehoiakime ana’ Iosia, mpanjaka’ Iehodà, manao ty hoe:
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 Akia mb’ añ’ anjomba’ o nte-Rekao mb’eo naho isaontsio, vaho endeso mb’añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao, añ’efe’e raik’ ao, vaho anjotsò divay hikama’ iareo.
“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 Aa le nendeseko t’Iaazanià ana’ Iirmeà, ana’ i Habazinia, naho o roahalahi’eo rekets’ o ana’e iabio, vaho ty haampon’ anjomba’ o nte-Rekao.
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 Le nampihovaeko añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao, añ’efe’ o ana’ i Kanàne ana’ Igdalia ondatin’ Añahareo, marine’ ty efe’ o roandriañeo, ambone’ ty efe’ i Maaseià, ana’ i Salome, mpiamben-dalañe;
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 naho nazotsoko aolo’ o anak’ anjomba’ i Rekàbeo ty korobo naho fitiheke, vaho nanoeko ty hoe: Mikamà divay.
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 Fa hoe ty lie’ iereo, Tsy hikama divay zahay ty amy nafè’ Ionadabe ana’ i Rekabe rae’ay ama’aiy, ty hoe: Tsy hikama divay nahareo, inahareo naho o ana’ areo kitro katrokeo;
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 vaho ko mañoreñe anjomba ndra mitongy tabiry, ko mambole vahe, naho ko atao hanañañe zay; fa himoneñe an-kibohotse amo fonga andro hiaiña’ areoo, soa t’ie hitoboke andro maro an-tanem-pañialoa’areo ao.
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 Le nihaoñe’ay ty fiarañanaña’ Ionadabe ana’ i Rekabe rae’ay amo nafe’e anay iabio, te tsy hinon-divay amo hene andro’aio, zahay o vali’aio, o ana’aio, naho o anak’ ampela’aio.
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 Aa le tsy namboatse anjomba himoneña’ay zahay, tsy aman-tanem-bahe ndra teteke ndra tabiry;
and not to build houses for ourselves to dwell in. We have no vineyard, field, or seed;
10 f’ie mpitobok’ an-kibohotse ao, naho mañaoñe vaho mitoloñe o nafe’ Ionadabe rae’aio.
but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 Aa ie nionjoñe haname an-tane atoy t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele, le hoe zahay: Antao hionjoñe mb’e Ierosalaime ao, aolo’ o lahindefon-te-Kasdio naho aolo’ o nte-Arameo; aa le mimoneñe e Ierosalaime atoan-jahay.
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 Aa le hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà niheo am’Iirmeà:
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
13 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Akia mb’ am’ ondati’ Iehodao naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo, le ano ty hoe: Tsy hitsendreñe hilala hao nahareo hañaoñe o volakoo? hoe t’Iehovà.
“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 Ty nafè’ Ionadabe ana’ i Rekabe, amo ana’eo, ty tsy hikama divay, le fa ambenañe, vaho tsy ikama’ iareo pake henane, amy t’ie mañoñe ty fetsen-drae’ iareo; fe nitaroñeko mañampitso am-pitaroñañe nahareo fe tsy nijanjiñe ahy.
“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 Le niraheko ama’ areo ka o mpitoky mpitoroko iabio, nampihitrifeko handro nanao ty hoe: Songa mimpolia amo sata’ rati’eo ondatio, naho ahitio o fitoloña’ areoo, naho ko mañorin-drahare ila’e ho toroñeñe, soa te himoneña’ areo ty tane natoloko ama’areo naho aman-droae’ areo toy; f’ie tsy nanokilan-dravembia, tsy nañaoñ’ ahy.
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 Toe nihenefe’ o ana’ Ionadabe ana’ i Rekabe ty fetse nafen-drae’ iareo ama’e, fe tsy nañaoñe ahy ondaty retoañe;
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 aa le hoe t’Iehovà, i Andrianañahare’ i màroiy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Ingo te hafetsako am’Iehodà naho amo mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo ze fonga hekoheko tsineiko am’iereo; amy t’ie nivolañeko, f’ie tsy nijanjiñe, kinoiko fe tsy nanoiñe.
“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 Le hoe t’Iirmeà amy anjomba’ o nte Rekabeo: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Amy te nihaoñe’ areo ty saontsin-drae’ areo Ionadabe, vaho nambena’ areo o fañè’e iabio, vaho nanoe’ areo ze hene nandilia’e;
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 le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Tsy haitoañe am’ Ionadabe, ana’ i Rekabe ty lahilahy hijohañe añatrefako nainai’e donia.
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.’”
