Jeremiah 35:12-17

12Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 toH413 JeremiahH3414H559: 13“This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559: GoH1980 and tellH559 the menH376 of JudahH3063 and the residentsH3427 of JerusalemH3389: ‘Will you notH3808 acceptH3947 disciplineH4148 and obeyH8085H413 My wordsH1697?’ declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.

14The wordsH1697 of JonadabH3082 sonH1121 of RechabH7394 have been carried outH6965. HeH834 commandedH6680 his sonsH1121 notH1115 to drinkH8354 wineH3196, and they have notH3808 drunkH8354 it toH5704 this veryH2088 dayH3117 becauseH3588 they have obeyedH8085 the commandH4687 of their forefatherH1. But IH595 have spokenH1696 to youH413 again and againH7925H1696,1 and you have notH3808 obeyed MeH8085H413!

15AgainH7925 and againH7971 I have sentH7971 youH4132 allH3605 My servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, proclaimingH559: ‘TurnH7725 nowH4994, each of youH376, from your wickedH7451 waysH1870, and correctH3190 your actionsH4611. Do notH408 go afterH1980H310 otherH312 godsH430 to serve themH5647. LiveH3427 inH413 the landH127 thatH834 I have givenH5414 to you and your fathersH1.’ But you have notH3808 inclinedH5186 your earH241 or listenedH8085 to MeH413. 16YesH3588, the sonsH1121 of JonadabH3082 sonH1121 of RechabH7394 carried outH6965 the commandH4687 their forefatherH1 gave themH6680, but theseH2088 peopleH5971 have notH3808 listenedH8085 to MeH413.

17ThereforeH3651 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of HostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559: ‘BeholdH2005, I will bringH935 toH413 JudahH3063 and toH413 allH3605 the residentsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 allH3605 the disasterH7451 I have pronouncedH1696 against themH5921, becauseH3282 I have spokenH1696 to themH413 but they have notH3808 obeyedH8085, and I have calledH7121 to them but they have notH3808 answeredH6030.’”
