Jeremiah 35
1 [Several years earlier, ] when Jehoiakim was the King of Judah, Yahweh gave me this message:
Jahve uputi riječ Jeremiji u dane Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga:
2 “Go to the place where families of the Rechab clan live. Invite them to my temple. [When they arrive, ] take them into one of the inside rooms and offer them [some] wine.”
“Idi u zajednicu Rekabovaca, govori s njima i dovedi ih u Dom Jahvin, u jednu od dvorana, i daj im vina.”
3 So I went to see Jaazaniah and all his brothers and sons who represented the Rechab clan. Jaazaniah was the son of [another man named] Jeremiah and grandson of Habazziniah.
Tada dovedoh Jaazaniju, sina Habasinijina sina Jeremije, njegovu braću i sve sinove njegove i sav dom Rekabovaca
4 I took them to the temple, [and we went] into the room where the sons of Igdaliah’s son Hanan, who was a prophet, stayed. That room was next to the room that was used by the men who were in charge of the entrances to the temple. It was above the room that belonged to Maaseiah, who was the temple gatekeeper and the son of Shallum.
i dovedoh ih u Dom Jahvin, u dvoranu čovjeka Božjega Ben Johanana, sina Jigdalijina, koja je kraj dvorane kneževske, a nad dvoranom vratara Maaseje, sina Šalumova.
5 I set jugs of wine in front of them and urged them to drink some,
Zatim stavih pred sinove doma Rekabova krčage pune vina i čaše te im rekoh: “Pijte vina!”
6 but they refused. They said, “We do not drink wine, because our ancestor Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, commanded us, saying ‘You and your descendants must never drink wine.
Ali oni odgovoriše: “Ne pijemo vina, jer nam je otac naš Jonadab, sin Rekabov, zapovjedio: 'Ne smijete nikada piti vina, ni vi ni sinovi vaši.
7 And you must not build houses or plant vineyards or [other] crops. Instead, you must always live in tents. If you obey those commands, you all will live for many years in this land.’
Niti smijete graditi kućÄa, niti sijati sjemena ni saditi vinogradÄa, niti ih posjedovati, nego provodite sav život pod šatorima, da dugo živite u zemlji gdje kao stranci boravite.'
8 [So] we have obeyed him in all those matters. We have never drunk wine. Our wives and our sons and our daughters [have also never drunk wine].
I mi poslušasmo glas oca Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, u svem što nam je zapovjedio: da nikad vina ne pijemo, ni mi ni žene naše, niti sinovi naši, ni kćeri naše,
9 We have not built houses or planted vineyards or [other] crops or [worked in] fields.
da ne gradimo kuća, ni da posjedujemo vinograda ni polja zasijanih,
10 We have lived in tents. We have obeyed all the commands that Jehonadab, our ancestor, gave us.
da stanujemo pod šatorima i držimo se poslušno svega što nam zapovjedi naš otac Jonadab.
11 But when [the army of] King Nebuchadnezzar attacked this country, we said, ‘We must go to Jerusalem to escape from the armies of Babylonia and Syria.’ So, [we came] to Jerusalem and we are living [here].”
Samo kada je Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, krenuo protiv ove zemlje, rekosmo: 'Hajdemo, pođimo u Jeruzalem da izbjegnemo vojsku kaldejsku i vojsku aramejsku!' I tako sada živimo u Jeruzalemu.”
12 Then Yahweh gave this message to me: “This is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people say that they belong to], say:
Tada dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
13 'Go and tell this to the people in Jerusalem and in [other places in] Judah: “Why do you not [RHQ] listen to me or learn something about how to obey me?
Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, kralj Izraelov: “Idi i objavi Judejcima i Jeruzalemcima: 'Zar nećete primiti nauka moga i poslušati riječi moje?' - riječ je Jahvina. -
14 The Rechab clan still do not drink wine, because their ancestor Jehonadab told them to not do that. [In contrast], I have spoken to you many times, but you refuse to obey me.
'Ispunjuju se riječi Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, koji je sinovima svojim zabranio da piju vina, i do dana današnjega nitko ga nije pio, jer oni slušaju riječ svoga oca. A ja sam vam jednako govorio, ali me niste slušali.
15 Many times I sent prophets to you. They told you, 'Turn away from your wicked behavior, and do things that you should do. Stop worshiping other gods, in order that you will be able to live [peacefully] in this land that I gave to you and your ancestors.' But you would not pay attention to what I said or obey me.
I slao sam bez prestanka k vama sluge svoje, proroke, da vam propovijedaju: 'Vratite se svaki sa svoga opakog puta, popravite djela svoja i ne trčite za tuđim bogovima da im služite, pa ćete ostati u zemlji koju dadoh vama i ocima vašim'; ali ne prikloniste uha svojega i ne poslušaste me.
16 The descendants of Jehonadab have obeyed their ancestor, but you have refused to pay attention to what I told you.
Sinovi Jonadaba, sina Rekabova, držahu se zapovijedi koju im dade otac njihov. Ali mene ovaj narod ne sluša.'
17 Therefore, this is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom you Israeli people [say you belong to], say: 'You have refused to listen to me and you did not answer when I called you. Therefore, I will cause the people in Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah to experience all the disasters that I said that I would cause to happen.'” '”
Zato govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Evo, navući ću na sve Jeruzalemce sve one nevolje kojima sam im zaprijetio, jer sam im govorio, a oni me ne slušahu, dozivao ih, ali se oni ne odazivahu.'”
18 Then I turned to the Rechab clan and said, “This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israelis [say we belong to], says: ‘You have obeyed what your ancestor Jehonadab told you. You have obeyed all his instructions.
Zajednici Rekabovaca Jeremija reče: “Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Jer ste slušali zapovijedi svoga oca Jonadaba i držali se svih naredaba i činili sve što vam je on zapovjedio,
19 Therefore, this is what I say: “There will always be descendants of Jehonadab who will do work for me.”’”
zato - ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, kralj Izraelov - Jonadabu, sinu Rekabovu, nikad neće ponestati potomka koji će stajati pred licem mojim u sve dane.'”
