Jeremiah 35:6-10

[6] 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:  [7] 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.  [8] 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;  [9] Nor to build  houses  for us to dwell in:  neither have we vineyard,  nor field,  nor seed:  [10] But we have dwelt in  tents,  and have obeyed,  and done  according to all that Jonadab  our father  commanded
