I took them into the House of Jehovah, into the room of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, the man of God.

I set out some large bowls full of wine together with some cups. Then I said to the Rechabites: Have some wine! But they answered: No! The ancestor of our clan, Jonadab son of Rechab, made a rule that we must obey. He said: 'Do not ever drink wine or build houses or plant crops and vineyards. Instead, you must always live in tents and move from place to place. If you obey this command, you will live a long time.' We have obeyed all the instructions that Jonadab gave us. We never drink wine, and neither do our wives, our sons, or our daughters. We do not build houses for homes for we live in tents. We own no vineyards, fields, or grain. We have fully obeyed everything that our ancestor Jonadab commanded us. We live in tents, and we have obeyed everything our ancestor Jonadab ordered us to do.
