Jeremiah 35:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

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.’

⁸ “Thus we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in all that he has charged us. And we never drink wine, neither we, our wives, our sons nor our daughters.

⁹ “Nor do we build houses for us to dwell in, nor do we have vineyard or field or seed.
