Jeremiah:35:14-19
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 fathers commandment :
notwithstanding I have spoken unto you ,
rising early and speaking ;
but ye hearkened not 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 ma #
alal #,
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 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 saith the LORD God of hosts ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
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 Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites ,
Thus saith the LORD of hosts ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
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 saith the LORD of hosts ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me for ever .
