Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1當 猶大 王 約西亞 之子 約雅敬 的時候，耶和華的話臨到 耶利米 說：
1This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
2「你去見 利甲 族的人，和他們說話，領他們進入耶和華殿的一間屋子，給他們酒喝。」
2“Go to the house of the Rechabites, speak to them, and bring them to one of the chambers of the house of the LORD to offer them a drink of wine.”
3我就將 哈巴洗尼雅 的孫子 雅利米雅 的兒子 雅撒尼亞 和他弟兄，並他眾子，以及 利甲 全族的人，
3So I took Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons—the entire house of the Rechabites—
4領到耶和華的殿，進入神人 伊基大利 的兒子 哈難 眾子的屋子。那屋子在首領的屋子旁邊，在 沙龍 之子把門的 瑪西雅 屋子以上。
4and I brought them into the house of the LORD, to a chamber occupied by the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God. This room was near the chamber of the officials, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum the doorkeeper.
5於是我在 利甲 族人面前設擺盛滿酒的碗和杯，對他們說：「請你們喝酒。」
5Then I set pitchers full of wine and some cups before the men of the house of the Rechabites, and I said to them, “Drink some wine.”
6他們卻說：「我們不喝酒；因為我們先祖 利甲 的兒子 約拿達 曾吩咐我們說：『你們與你們的子孫永不可喝酒，
6“We do not drink wine,” they replied, “for our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab commanded us, ‘Neither you nor your descendants are ever to drink wine.
7也不可蓋房、撒種、栽種葡萄園，但一生的年日要住帳棚，使你們的日子在寄居之地得以延長。』
7Nor are you ever to build a house or sow seed or plant a vineyard. Those things are not for you. Instead, you must live in tents all your lives, so that you may live a long time in the land where you wander.’
8凡我們先祖 利甲 的兒子 約拿達 所吩咐我們的話，我們都聽從了。我們和我們的妻子兒女一生的年日都不喝酒，
8And we have obeyed the voice of our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab in all he commanded us. So we have not drunk wine all our lives—neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters.
9也不蓋房居住，也沒有葡萄園、田地，和種子，
9Nor have we built houses in which to live, and we have not owned any vineyards or fields or crops.
10但住帳棚，聽從我們先祖 約拿達 的話，照他所吩咐我們的去行。
10But we have lived in tents and have obeyed and done exactly as our forefather Jonadab commanded us.
11巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 上此地來，我們因怕 迦勒底 的軍隊和 亞蘭 的軍隊，就說：『來吧，我們到 耶路撒冷 去。』這樣，我們才住在 耶路撒冷 。」
11So when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched into the land, we said: ‘Come, let us go into Jerusalem to escape the armies of the Chaldeans and the Arameans.’ So we have remained in Jerusalem.”
12耶和華的話臨到 耶利米 說：
12Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
13「萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：你去對 猶大 人和 耶路撒冷 的居民說，耶和華說：你們不受教訓，不聽從我的話嗎？
13“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem: ‘Will you not accept discipline and obey My words?’ declares the LORD.
14利甲 的兒子 約拿達 所吩咐他子孫不可喝酒的話，他們已經遵守，直到今日也不喝酒，因為他們聽從先祖的吩咐。我從早起來警戒你們，你們卻不聽從我。
14The words of Jonadab son of Rechab have been carried out. He commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk it to this very day because they have obeyed the command of their forefather. But I have spoken to you again and again, and you have not obeyed Me!
15我從早起來，差遣我的僕人眾先知去，說：『你們各人當回頭，離開惡道，改正行為，不隨從事奉別神，就必住在我所賜給你們和你們列祖的地上。』只是你們沒有聽從我，也沒有側耳而聽。
15Again and again I have sent you all My servants the prophets, proclaiming: ‘Turn now, each of you, from your wicked ways, and correct your actions. Do not go after other gods to serve them. Live in the land that I have given to you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear or listened to Me.
16利甲 的兒子 約拿達 的子孫能遵守先人所吩咐他們的命，這百姓卻沒有聽從我！
16Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to Me.
17因此，耶和華－萬軍之上帝、 以色列 的上帝如此說：我要使我所說的一切災禍臨到 猶大 人和 耶路撒冷 的一切居民。因為我對他們說話，他們沒有聽從；我呼喚他們，他們沒有答應。」
17Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring to Judah and to all the residents of Jerusalem all the disaster I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them but they have not obeyed, and I have called to them but they have not answered.’”
18耶利米 對 利甲 族的人說：「萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：因你們聽從你們先祖 約拿達 的吩咐，謹守他的一切誡命，照他所吩咐你們的去行，
18Then Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites: “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the command of your forefather Jonadab and have kept all his commandments and have done all that he charged you to do,
19所以萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說： 利甲 的兒子 約拿達 必永不缺人侍立在我面前。」
19this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Jonadab son of Rechab will never fail to have a man to stand before Me.’”
