¹The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh 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 to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and bring them into the house of Yahweh, into one of the rooms, 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 Habazziniah, and his brothers, 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 Yahweh, 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.

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.

⁵I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said to them, Drink 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, You shall drink no wine, neither you, nor your sons, forever:

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 you build house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any; but all your days you shall dwell in tents; that you may live many days in the land in which you live.

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.

⁸We 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;

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 lived 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 happened, when Nebuchadnezzar 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 Yahweh to Jeremiah, saying,

¹²A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo k Jeremiášovi povediac:

¹³Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Go, and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will you not receive instruction to listen to my words? says Yahweh.

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; 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.

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 to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and don’t go after other gods to serve them, and you shall 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.

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 has not listened to me;

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

¹⁷therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Armies, the God of Israel: 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.

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.

¹⁸Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according to all that he 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 says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me forever.

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