¹The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,

¹Slovo, ktoré sa stalo od Hospodina k Jeremiášovi vo dňoch Jehojakima, syna Joziášovho, judského kráľa, povediac:

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

²Iď do domu Rechabitov a budeš hovoriť s nimi a dovedieš ich do domu Hospodinovho do jednej z chýž a budeš im dávať piť víno.

³Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;

³A tak som pojal Jazaniáša, syna Jeremiáša, syna Chabaciniášovho, i jeho bratov i všetkých jeho synov i všetok dom Rechabitov.

⁴And I brought them into the house of the LORD, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a 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 door:

⁴A doviedol som ich do domu Hospodinovho, do chyže synov Chanána, syna Jigdaliášovho, muža Božieho, ktorá bola vedľa chyže kniežat, ktorá bola nad komorou Maaseiáša, syna Šallúmovho, strážcu prahu.

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

⁵A postavil som pred synov domu Rechabitov žbánky, plné vína, a poháre a povedal som im: Pite víno!

⁶But they said, We will drink no wine: for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons for ever:

⁶Ale oni riekli: Nepijeme vína. Lebo Jonadáb, syn Rechabov, náš otec, nám zakázal a povedal: Nebudete piť vína ani vy ani vaši synovia až na veky.

⁷Neither shall ye build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any: but all your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land where ye be strangers.

⁷Ani nebudete staväť domu ani nebudete siať semena ani nebudete sadiť vinice ani ich nebudete mať, ale budete bývať v stánoch po všetky svoje dni, aby ste žili mnoho dní na tvári zeme, v ktorej pohostínite.

⁸Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor our daughters;

⁸A tak sme poslúchli hlas Jonadába, syna Rechabovho, svojho otca, vo všetkom, čo nám prikázal, totiž aby sme nepili vína po všetky svoje dni ani my ani naše ženy ani naši synovia ani naše dcéry

⁹Nor to build houses for us to dwell in: neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed:

⁹a aby sme nestaväli domov, aby sme v nich bývali, ani nemali ani vinice ani poľa ani semena,

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

¹⁰a preto bývame v stánoch a poslúchame a robíme všetko tak, ako nám to prikázal Jonadáb, náš otec.

¹¹But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.

¹¹A stalo sa, keď prišiel Nabuchodonozor, babylonský kráľ, hore do zeme, že sme povedali: Poďte a vojdime do Jeruzalema pred vojskom Chaldejov a pred vojskom Sýrov, a tak bývame v Jeruzaleme.

¹²Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,

¹²A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo k Jeremiášovi povediac:

¹³Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the LORD.

¹³Takto hovorí Hospodin Zástupov, Bôh Izraelov: Iď a povieš mužom Júdovým a obyvateľom Jeruzalema: Či si nevezmete naučenia, aby ste počúvali na moje slová? hovorí Hospodin.

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

¹⁴Stoja slová Jonadába, syna Rechabovho, ktorý prikázal svojim synom, aby nepili vína, a nepili až do tohoto dňa, lebo poslúchajú prikázanie svojho otca. A ja vám hovorím vstávajúc skoro za rána a vše len hovorím, ale nepočúvate na mňa.

¹⁵I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, 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 which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.

¹⁵A posielal som k vám všetkých svojich služobníkov prorokov vstávajúc skoro za rána a posielajúc znova a znova a hovorím: Nože sa navráťte každý od svojej zlej cesty a robte tak, aby boly vaše skutky dobré, a nechoďte za inými bohmi, aby ste im slúžili, a bývajte v zemi, ktorú som dal vám i vašim otcom, ale nenaklonili ste svojho ucha ani nepočúvate na mňa.

¹⁶Because 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:

¹⁶Lebo synovia Jonadába, syna Rechabovho, zachovávajú prikázanie svojho otca, ktoré im prikázal; ale tento ľud nepočúva na mňa.

¹⁷Therefore thus saith the LORD 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 heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered.

¹⁷Preto takto hovorí Hospodin, Bôh Zástupov, Bôh Izraelov: Hľa, uvediem na Júdu a na všetkých obyvateľov Jeruzalema všetko to zlé, ktoré som hovoril proti nim, pretože som im hovorieval, ale neposlúchli; volával som na nich, ale sa neohlásili.

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

¹⁸A domu Rechabitov povedal Jeremiáš: Takto hovorí Hospodin Zástupov, Bôh Izraelov: Preto, že poslúchate prikázanie Jonadába, svojho otca, a ostríhate všetky jeho prikázania a robíte všetko tak, ako vám to prikázal,

¹⁹Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me for ever.

¹⁹preto takto hovorí Hospodin Zástupov, Bôh Izraelov: Nebude vyťatý muž Jonadábovi, synovi Rechabovmu, ktorý by stál pred mojou tvárou, po všetky dni.
