Jeremiah 35:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ Nor to build houses to dwell in, nor to have vineyard, or field, or seed:

¹⁰ But we have dwelt in tents, and have been obedient according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.

¹¹ But when Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up to our land, we said: Come, let us go into Jerusalem from the face of the army of the Chaldeans, and from the face of the army of Syria: and we have remained in Jerusalem.
