Jeremiah 35

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, saying,

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

2 Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak with them, and bring them into the house of Jehovah, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink.

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

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

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

4 and I brought them into the house of Jehovah, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the threshold.

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.

5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups, and I said unto them, Drink wine.

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

6 And they said, We will drink no wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, ye nor your sons for ever;

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.

7 neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor shall ye have [any]; but all your days ye shall dwell in tents, that ye may live many days in the land where ye sojourn.

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.‹

8 And we have hearkened unto 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, and our daughters,

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,

9 and not to build houses for us to dwell in; neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed;

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

10 but we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.

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

11 And it came to pass when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come and let us go into Jerusalem because of the army of the Chaldeans, and because of the army of Syria; and we dwell at Jerusalem.

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.‹«

12 And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah, saying,

Potem je prišla beseda od Gospoda Jeremiju, rekoč:

13 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Go and say to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken unto my words? saith Jehovah.

»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.

14 The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed; and to this day they have drunk none, for they have obeyed their father's commandment. But I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking, and ye have not hearkened unto me.

›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.

15 And I have sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them; and ye shall dwell in the land that I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear nor hearkened unto me.

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.

16 Yea, the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father which he commanded them, but this people hath not hearkened unto me;

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

17 therefore thus saith Jehovah the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken unto them, but they have not hearkened, and I have called unto them, but they have not answered.

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.‹«

18 And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his injunctions, and have done according unto all that he hath commanded you;

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,

19 therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, There shall not fail to Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before me, for ever.

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