Jeremiah 35:14-16

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁴ Jonadab son of Rekab commanded his sons not to drink wine, and this command has been kept. To this day they drink no wine, for they have obeyed their ancestor’s command. But I keep speaking to you, again and again, and you have not obeyed me. ¹⁵ I have sent my servants the prophets to you again and again. They told you to turn from your evil ways, to reform your actions, and to stop following other gods in order to serve them. Then you would live on the land I have given to you and your fathers. But you have not paid attention or listened to me. ¹⁶ The sons of Jonadab son of Rekab have kept this command which their father gave them, but these people have not obeyed me.
