Jeremiah 35:12-17

12Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying, 13“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Go and say to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, “1Will you not receive instruction by listening to My words?” declares the Lord. 14“The 2words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, which he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are observed. So they do not drink wine to this day, for they have obeyed their father’s command. But I have spoken to you 34again and again; yet you have 5not listened to Me. 15Also I have sent to you all My 6servants the prophets, sending them 7again and again, saying: ‘8Turn now every man from his evil way and amend your deeds, and 9do not go after other gods to worship them. Then you will 10dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your forefathers; but you have not 11inclined your ear or listened to Me. 16Indeed, the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have 12observed the command of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to Me.’”’ 17Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Behold, 13I am bringing on Judah and on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the disaster that I have pronounced against them; because I 14spoke to them but they did not listen, and I have called them but they did not answer.’”
