The word that
hath
been
unto Jeremiah from Jehovah,
in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying :
The word which
came
unto Jeremiah from the
LORD
in the days of Jehoiakim the
son of Josiah king of Judah, saying ,
`
Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and thou
hast
spoken
with
them, and brought
them into the house of Jehovah
, unto
one of the chambers, and caused
them to drink wine
. '
Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak
unto
them, and bring
them into the house of the
LORD
, into
one of the chambers, and give
them wine
to drink.
And
I take
Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, son of Habazziniah
, and his brethren, and all his sons, and all
the house of the Rechabites ,
Then
I took
Jaazaniah the
son of Jeremiah, the
son of Habaziniah
, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole
house of the Rechabites ;
and bring
them into the house of Jehovah
, unto
the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God, that
`is'
near
to
the chamber of the princes, that
`is'
above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum, keeper of the threshold;
And I
brought
them into the house of the
LORD
, into
the chamber of the sons of Hanan ,
the
son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which
was
by
the chamber of the princes, which
was
above the chamber of Maaseiah the
son of Shallum, the
keeper of the door:
and I put
before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets
full of wine, and cups, and I say
unto them, Drink ye wine.
And I set
before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots
full of wine, and cups, and I said
unto them, Drink ye wine.
And
they say
, `
We do
not
drink wine: for Jonadab son of Rechab ,
our father ,
charged
us, saying, Ye do
not
drink wine, ye and
your sons --
unto
the
age;
But
they said
, We will
drink no
wine: for Jonadab the
son of Rechab our father commanded
us, saying, Ye shall
drink no
wine, neither
ye ,
nor
your sons for
ever:
and
a
house
ye do
not
build, and
seed
ye
do
not
sow, and
a
vineyard
ye
do
not
plant, nor have ye
any ;
for
in
tents
do
ye
dwell
all your days ,
that ye may live many days on
the
face
of
the ground
whither
ye are
sojourning
.
Neither
shall
ye build house
, nor
sow seed
, nor
plant vineyard
, nor have any :
but
all your days ye
shall
dwell
in
tents;
that ye may live many days in
the land
where
ye be
strangers
.
`And
we hearken
to
the voice of Jonadab son of Rechab ,
our father ,
to
all that he commanded
us, not
to drink wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, and
our daughters;
Thus
have
we obeyed
the voice of Jonadab the
son of Rechab our father in
all that he hath
charged
us, to drink no
wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor
our daughters;
nor to build houses for our
dwelling;
and
vineyard, and
field, and
seed ,
we
have
none;
Nor to build houses for us
to
dwell
in:
neither
have
we
vineyard, nor
field, nor
seed :
and
we dwell
in tents, and we
hearken
, and we
do
according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us ;
But
we have
dwelt
in tents, and have
obeyed
, and done
according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us .
and
it cometh
to pass, in
the
coming
up
of
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon unto
the land, that we say
, Come, and we
enter
Jerusalem ,
because
of the force
of the Chaldeans, and because
of the force
of Aram
--
and
we dwell in
Jerusalem. '
But
it came
to pass, when
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came
up
into
the land, that we said
, Come, and let
us
go
to
Jerusalem for
fear
of the army
of the Chaldeans, and for
fear
of the army
of the
Syrians:
so
we dwell at
Jerusalem.
And
there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto Jeremiah, saying :
`Thus
said
Jehovah
of
Hosts
, God
of
Israel:
Then
came
the
word of the
LORD
unto Jeremiah, saying,
`Go
, and thou
hast
said
to
the men of Judah ,
and to
the inhabitants of Jerusalem :
Do
ye not receive instruction ?
--
to hearken unto
My words --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
.
Thus
saith
the
LORD
of
hosts
, the
God
of
Israel;
Go
and tell
the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem ,
Will
ye not receive instruction to hearken to
my words ?
saith
the
LORD
.
Performed
have
been
the words of Jonadab son of Rechab, when
he commanded his sons not to drink wine, and
they
have
not
drunk
unto this day ,
for
they have
obeyed
the
command
of
their father;
and
I
--
I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking ,
and
ye have
not
hearkened unto Me.
The words of Jonadab the
son of Rechab, that
he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are
performed;
for
unto this day they drink
none,
but
obey
their father's
commandment:
notwithstanding
I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking ;
but
ye hearkened not
unto me.
And
I send
unto you all My servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying :
Turn
back
, I
pray
you,
each
from his evil way, and amend your doings, yea,
ye
do
not walk
after other gods ,
to serve them, and dwell
ye on
the ground
that
I have given to you and to your fathers ;
and
ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto Me.
I have
sent
also
unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up
early and sending them
, saying, Return
ye
now
every
man
from his evil way, and amend your doings, and
go
not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall
dwell
in
the land
which
I have given to you and to your fathers :
but
ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.
`
Because the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab have performed the command
of their father, that
he commanded them ,
and
this people have
not hearkened unto Me ,
Because the sons of Jonadab the
son of Rechab have performed the commandment
of their father, which
he commanded them ;
but
this people hath
not hearkened unto me :
therefore thus said
Jehovah,
God of Hosts, God of Israel :
Lo
, I am
bringing
in
unto
Judah ,
and unto
all inhabitants of Jerusalem ,
all the evil that I have spoken
against them ,
because I have spoken unto them, and
they have not hearkened,
yea,
I call
to
them, and
they have not answered. '
Therefore thus saith
the
LORD
God of hosts, the
God of Israel ;
Behold
, I will
bring
upon
Judah and upon
all the
inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced
against them :
because I have spoken unto them, but
they have not heard;
and
I have
called
unto
them, but
they have not answered.
And to
the house of the Rechabites said
Jeremiah:
`
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel ,
Because that
ye have hearkened
unto
the command
of Jonadab your father, and ye
observe
all his commands
, and do
according to
all that he commanded you ;
And Jeremiah
said
unto
the house of the Rechabites ,
Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts, the
God of Israel ;
Because ye have obeyed
the commandment
of Jonadab your father, and kept
all his precepts
, and done
according unto
all that he hath
commanded you :
therefore ,
thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel ,
Of
Jonadab son of Rechab one
standing
before me is
not
cut
off
all
the
days
. '
Therefore thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts, the
God of Israel ;
Jonadab the
son of Rechab shall
not
want
a
man
to
stand
before me for
ever
.
