Jeremiah 35:12-19

12Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, 13“ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ‘GoH1980 and sayH559 to the menH376 of JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, “1Will you not receiveH3947 instructionH4148 by listeningH8085 to My wordsH1697?” declaresH5002 the LordH3068. 14“The 2wordsH1697 of JonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394, whichH834 he commandedH6680 his sonsH1121 not to drinkH8354 wineH3196, are observedH6965. So they do not drinkH8354 wine to thisH2088 dayH3117, for they have obeyedH8085 their father’sH1 commandH4687. But I have spokenH1696 to you 34againH7925 and againH1696; yet you have 5not listenedH8085 to Me. 15Also I have sentH7971 to you allH3605 My 6servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, sendingH7971 them 7againH7925 and againH7971, sayingH559: ‘8TurnH7725 nowH4994 everyH376 manH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870 and amendH3190 your deedsH4611, and 9do not goH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to worshipH5647 them. Then you will 10dwellH3427 in the landH127 whichH834 I have givenH5414 to you and to your forefathersH1; but you have not 11inclinedH5186 your earH241 or listenedH8085 to Me. 16IndeedH3588, the sonsH1121 of JonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394 have 12observedH6965 the commandH4687 of their fatherH1 whichH834 he commandedH6680 them, but thisH2088 peopleH5971 has not listenedH8085 to Me.’”’ 17ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ‘BeholdH2009, 13I am bringingH935 on JudahH3063 and on allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 allH3605 the disasterH7463 that I have pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 them; becauseH3282 I 14spokeH1696 to them but they did not listenH8085, and I have calledH7121 them but they did not answerH6030.’”

18Then JeremiahH3414 saidH559 to the houseH1004 of the RechabitesH7397, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ‘BecauseH3282H834 you have 15obeyedH8085 the commandH4687 of JonadabH3082 your fatherH1, keptH8104 allH3605 his commandsH4687 and doneH6213 according to allH3605 that he commandedH6680 you; 19thereforeH3651 thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “JonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394 16shall not lackH3772 a manH376 to 17standH5975 beforeH6440 Me 18alwaysH3605H3117.”’”
