Jeremiah 35:8 BBE

⁶  But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:

⁷  And you are to make no houses, or put in seed, or get vine-gardens planted, or have any: but all your days you are to go on living in tents, so that you may have a long life in the land where you are living as in a strange country.

⁸  And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;

⁹  Building no houses for ourselves, having no vine-gardens or fields or seed:

¹⁰  But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.
