Jeremiah 35:11-19

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.

35:16

Because the sons
<01121>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

have performed
<06965> (8689)

the commandment
<04687>

of their father
<01>_,

which he commanded
<06680> (8765)

them; but this people
<05971>

hath not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto me:

35:17

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

upon Judah
<03063>

and upon all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>

all the evil
<07451>

that I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)

against them: because I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto them, but they have not heard
<08085> (8804)_;

and I have called
<07121> (8799)

unto them, but they have not answered
<06030> (8804)_.

35:18

And Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Because ye have obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the commandment
<04687>

of Jonadab
<03082>

your father
<01>_,

and kept
<08104> (8799)

all his precepts
<04687>_,

and done
<06213> (8799)

according unto all that he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

you:

35:19

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Jonadab
<03122>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

shall not want
<03772> (8735)

a man
<0376>

to stand
<05975> (8802)

before
<06440>

me for ever
<03117>_.

{Jonadab...: Heb. There shall not a man be cut off from Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand, etc}
