Jeremiah 35:5-7

5Then I set before the 1men of the house of the Rechabites pitchers full of wine and cups; and I said to them, “2Drink wine!”

6But they said, “We will not drink wine, for 3Jonadab the son of 4Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying, ‘You shall 5not drink wine, you or your sons, forever.

7You shall not build a house, and you shall not sow seed and you shall not plant a vineyard or own one; but in 6tents you shall dwell all your days, that you may live 7many days in the land where you 8sojourn.’
