35:1

The word
<01697>

which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>

in the days
<03117>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

35:2

Go
<01980> (8800)

unto the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_,

and speak
<01696> (8765)

unto them, and bring
<0935> (8689)

them into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

into one
<0259>

of the chambers
<03957>_,

and give them wine
<03196>

to drink
<08248> (8689)_.

35:3

Then I took
<03947> (8799)

Jaazaniah
<02970>

the son
<01121>

of Jeremiah
<03414>_,

the son
<01121>

of Habaziniah
<02262>_,

and his brethren
<0251>_,

and all his sons
<01121>_,

and the whole house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_;

35:4

And I brought
<0935> (8686)

them into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

into the chamber
<03957>

of the sons
<01121>

of Hanan
<02605>_,

the son
<01121>

of Igdaliah
<03012>_,

a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

which [was] by
<0681>

the chamber
<03957>

of the princes
<08269>_,

which [was] above
<04605>

the chamber
<03957>

of Maaseiah
<04641>

the son
<01121>

of Shallum
<07967>_,

the keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the door
<05592>_:

{door: Heb. threshold, or, vessel}

35:5

And I set
<05414> (8799)

before
<06440>

the sons
<01121>

of the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>

pots
<01375>

full
<04392>

of wine
<03196>_,

and cups
<03563>_,

and I said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Drink
<08354> (8798)

ye wine
<03196>_.

35:6

But they said
<0559> (8799)_,

We will drink
<08354> (8799)

no wine
<03196>_:

for Jonadab
<03122>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

our father
<01>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Ye shall drink
<08354> (8799)

no wine
<03196>_,

[neither ye], nor your sons
<01121>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_:

35:7

Neither shall ye build
<01129> (8799)

house
<01004>_,

nor sow
<02232> (8799)

seed
<02233>_,

nor plant
<05193> (8799)

vineyard
<03754>_,

nor have [any]: but all your days
<03117>

ye shall dwell
<03427> (8799)

in tents
<0168>_;

that ye may live
<02421> (8799)

many
<07227>

days
<03117>

in
<06440>

the land
<0127>

where ye [be] strangers
<01481> (8802)_.

35:8

Thus have we obeyed
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

our father
<01>

in all that he hath charged
<06680> (8765)

us, to drink
<08354> (8800)

no wine
<03196>

all our days
<03117>_,

we, our wives
<0802>_,

our sons
<01121>_,

nor our daughters
<01323>_;

35:9

Nor to build
<01129> (8800)

houses
<01004>

for us to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:

neither have we vineyard
<03754>_,

nor field
<07704>_,

nor seed
<02233>_:

35:10

But we have dwelt in
<03427> (8799)

tents
<0168>_,

and have obeyed
<08085> (8799)_,

and done
<06213> (8799)

according to all that Jonadab
<03122>

our father
<01>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

us.

35:11

But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

came up
<05927> (8800)

into the land
<0776>_,

that we said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come
<0935> (8798)_,

and let us go
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>

for fear
<06440>

of the army
<02428>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

and for fear
<06440>

of the army
<02428>

of the Syrians
<0758>_:

so we dwell
<03427> (8799)

at Jerusalem
<03389>_.

35:12

Then came the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

35:13

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Go
<01980> (8800)

and tell
<0559> (8804)

the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

Will ye not receive
<03947> (8799)

instruction
<04148>

to hearken
<08085> (8800)

to my words
<01697>_?

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

35:14

The words
<01697>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>_,

that he commanded
<06680> (8765)

his sons
<01121>

not to drink
<08354> (8800)

wine
<03196>_,

are performed
<06965> (8717)_;

for unto this day
<03117>

they drink
<08354> (8804)

none, but obey
<08085> (8804)

their father's
<01>

commandment
<04687>_:

notwithstanding I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto you, rising early
<07925> (8687)

and speaking
<01696> (8763)_;

but ye hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto me.

35:15

I have sent
<07971> (8799)

also unto you all my servants
<05650>

the prophets
<05030>_,

rising up early
<07925> (8687)

and sending
<07971> (8800)

[them], saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Return
<07725> (8798)

ye now every man
<0376>

from his evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_,

and amend
<03190> (8685)

your doings
<04611>_,

and go
<03212> (8799)

not after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>

to serve
<05647> (8800)

them, and ye shall dwell in
<03427> (8798)

the land
<0127>

which I have given
<05414> (8804)

to you and to your fathers
<01>_:

but ye have not inclined
<05186> (8689)

your ear
<0241>_,

nor hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto me.
