Jeremiah 35:5-10

5Then I set bowls full of wine and some cups before the Rekabites and said to them, “Drink some wine.”

6But they replied, “We do not drink wine, because our forefather Jehonadab son of Rekab gave us this command: ‘Neither you nor your descendants must ever drink wine.

7Also you must never build houses, sow seed or plant vineyards; you must never have any of these things, but must always live in tents. Then you will live a long time in the land where you are nomads.’

8We have obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab son of Rekab commanded us. Neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters have ever drunk wine

9or built houses to live in or had vineyards, fields or crops.

10We have lived in tents and have fully obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab commanded us.
