14 “The (A)words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, which he commanded his sons, not to drink wine, are established. So they do not drink wine to this day, for they have listened to their father’s command. But I have spoken to you, (B)rising up early and speaking; yet you have (C)not listened to Me. 15 Also I have sent to you all My (D)slaves the prophets, rising up early and sending, saying: ‘(E)Turn now every man from his evil way and make good your deeds, and (F)do not walk after other gods to [a]serve them. Then you will (G)inhabit the land which I have given to you and to your fathers; but you have not (H)inclined your ear or listened to Me. 16 Indeed, the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have (I)established the command of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to Me.’”’
