Jeremiah 35
1 Judah manghai Josiah capa Jehoiakim tue vaengah BOEIPA taeng lamkah ol he Jeremiah taengla ha pawk.
The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 “Rekhah imkhui la cet lamtah amih te thui pah. Amih BOEIPA im kah imkhui pakhat la khuen lamtah amih te misurtui tul lah,” a ti.
Go into the house of the Rechabites, and have talk with them, and take them into the house of the Lord, into one of the rooms, and give them wine.
3 Te dongah Habazziniah koca Jeremiah capa Jaazaniah neh amah boeinaphung, amah koca boeih neh Rekhah imkhui boeih te ka khuen.
Then I took Jaazaniah, the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons and all the Rechabites;
4 Amih te BOEIPA im ah tah Pathen kah hlang Igdaliah koca Hanan ca rhoek kah imkhui la ka khuen. A taengah cingkhaa aka tawt Shallum capa Maaseiah imkhan soah mangpa rhoek kah imkhan om.
And I took them into the house of the Lord, into the room of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was near the rulers' room, which was over the room of Maaseiah, the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door;
5 Te vaengah Rekhah imkhui koca mikhmuh ah misurtui te bunang dongah a bae la boengloeng neh ka tawn pah tih amih te, “Misurtui O uh,” ka ti nah.
And I put before the sons of the Rechabites basins full of wine and cups, and I said to them, Take some wine.
6 Tedae, “Misurtui ka ok uh moenih. A pa Rekhab capa Jonadab oh kaimih ng'uen coeng. Namah neh na ca rhoek khaw kumhal due misurtui na o loengloeng mahpawh.
But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:
7 Im khaw sa boeh, cangti khaw tuh boeh, misurdum khaw tue boeh, na taengah om sak boeh. Namah khohnin boeih te dap khuiah khosa uh. Te daengah ni diklai mikhmuh kah na bakuep uh rhuet vaengah khohnin muep na hing uh eh,’ a ti.
And you are to make no houses, or put in seed, or get vine-gardens planted, or have any: but all your days you are to go on living in tents, so that you may have a long life in the land where you are living as in a strange country.
8 Kaimih ng'uen boeih te tah a pa Rekhab capa Jehonadab ol ni ka hnatun uh. Te dongah kamah tue khuiah tah kamamih khaw, ka yuu rhoek, ka capa rhoek, ka canu rhoek khaw misurtui a ok moenih.
And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;
9 Kaimih om nah ham im ka sa uh pawt tih kai taengah misurdum neh khohmuen khaw cangtii khaw om pawh.
Building no houses for ourselves, having no vine-gardens or fields or seed:
10 Tedae dap ah ka om uh tih a pa Jonadab kah ng'uen te boeih ka hnatun uh tih ka saii uh.
But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.
11 Te om vaengah he khohmuen ah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar ha pongpa vaengah, “Ha mop uh latmah Khalden tatthai mikhmuh neh Aram tatthai mikhmuh ah Jerusalem la cet uh sih,” a ti uh dongah ni Jerusalem ah kho ka sak uh,” a ti uh.
But when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came up into the land, we said, Come, let us go to Jerusalem, away from the army of the Chaldaeans and from the army of the Aramaeans: and so we are living in Jerusalem.
12 Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te Jeremiah taengla ha pawk tih,
Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
13 Israel Pathen Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Cet lamtah Judah hlang taeng neh Jerusalem khosa rhoek taengah thui pah. Ka ol he hnatun ham thuituennah te na doe mahpawt nim? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Go and say to the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, Is there no hope of teaching you to give ear to my words? says the Lord.
14 Rekhab capa Jehonadab loh amah koca rhoek taengah misurtui ok pawt ham a uen ol te ana thoh puei. A napa kah olpaek te a hnatun uh dongah ni tahae khohnin duela a ok uh pawh. Tedae kai loh nangmih taengah na thoh neh a thui khaw kan thui dae kai taengkah he na hnatun uh moenih.
The orders which Jonadab, the son of Rechab, gave to his sons to take no wine, are done, and to this day they take no wine, for they do the orders of their father: but I have sent my words to you, getting up early and sending them, and you have not given ear to me.
15 Ka sal boeih te nangmih taengah ni ka tueih. Tonghma rhoek te a thoh neh kan tueih tih, 'Hlang he a boethae longpuei lamloh mael laeh saeh. Na khoboe te hlawt uh. Amih thothueng la pathen tloe hnukah pongpa uh boeh. Nangmih taeng neh na pa rhoek taengah kam paek khohmuen ah te khosa uh,’ a ti. Tedae na hna te na kaeng uh pawt tih kai taengkah he na hnatun uh moenih.
And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but your ears have not been open, and you have not given attention to me.
16 Rekhab capa Jehonadab koca rhoek tah amih a uen bangla a napa kah olpaek te a thoh puei uh. Tedae he pilnam loh kai taengkah he a hnatun uh moenih.
Though the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have done the orders of their father which he gave them, this people has not given ear to me:
17 Israel Pathen caempuei Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui tangloeng van. Judah so neh Jerusalem khosa boeih soah boethae cungkuem ka thui te amamih taengah ka thoeng sak he. Amih ham ka thui dae a hnatun uh pawt dongah amih ka khue vaengah khaw n'doo uh pawh.
For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send on Judah and on all the people of Jerusalem all the evil which I said I would do to them: because I sent my words to them, but they did not give ear; crying out to them, but they gave no answer.
18 Te dongah Rekhah imkhui te Jeremiah loh, “Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na pa Jehonadab kah olpaek te na hnatun uh tih a olpaek boeih te na ngaithuen uh dongah nangmih n'uen bangla boeih na saii uh.
But to the Rechabites Jeremiah said, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Because you have done the orders of Jonadab your father, and have kept his rules, and done everything as he gave you orders to do it;
19 Te dongah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA a thui tangloeng coeng he. Rekhab koca Jonadab kah a hlang tah amah tue khuiah tah ka mikhmuh ah pongtho vetih pat mahpawh.
For this reason the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Jonadab, the son of Rechab, will never be without a man to take his place before me.
