Jeremiah 35:3-6
New International Version
3 So I went to get Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons—the whole family of the Rekabites. 4 I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the room of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah the man of God.(A) It was next to the room of the officials, which was over that of Maaseiah son of Shallum(B) the doorkeeper.(C) 5 Then I set bowls full of wine and some cups before the Rekabites and said to them, “Drink some wine.”
6 But they replied, “We do not drink wine, because our forefather Jehonadab[a](D) son of Rekab gave us this command: ‘Neither you nor your descendants must ever drink wine.(E)
