Jeremiah 35:5-7

Revised Geneva Translation

⁵ And I set pots full of wine and cups before the sons of the House of the Rechabites, and said to them, “Drink wine.”

⁶ But 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.

⁷ ‘Nor shall you build house or sow seed or plant vineyard or have any of them. But you shall dwell in tents all your days, so that you may live a long time in the land where you are strangers.’
