Os recabitas
35 Esta é a mensagem que o Senhor comunicou a Jeremias, quando Joaquim, filho de Josias, era rei de Judá: 2 “Vai à zona em que se fixaram as famílias dos recabitas e convida-os a vir ao templo. Leva-os a uma das divisões interiores e oferece-lhes vinho a beber.”
3 Então fui ter com Jazanias, filho de Jeremias e neto de Habazinias, e trouxe-o e a todos os seus irmãos e filhos, representando todas as famílias dos recabitas. 4 Vieram até ao templo, à sala usada pelos filhos do profeta Hanã, filho de Jigdalias. Esta sala ficava ao lado da que utilizava o representante oficial do palácio, logo acima da sala de Maaseia, filho de Salum, que era o porteiro do templo. 5 Pus taças e copos com vinho diante deles e convidei-os a beberem. 6 Mas eles recusaram.
“Não!”, disseram. “Nós não bebemos, porque Jonadabe, o nosso antepassado, filho de Recabe, ordenou-nos que nunca bebêssemos vinho, nem nós, nem os nossos filhos. 7 Também nos disse para não construirmos casas, nem semearmos campos ou plantarmos vinhas, e que não possuíssemos terras, mas que vivêssemos sempre em tendas. Disse-nos ainda que, se obedecêssemos, viveríamos muito tempo e seríamos felizes na nossa terra. 8 Nós temos obedecido em todas estas coisas e nunca bebemos vinho, a partir de então, nem nós nem as nossas mulheres, filhos e filhas. 9 Também nunca construímos casas para nossa habitação, nem mesmo possuímos vinhas, campos ou sementes. 10 Temos sempre vivido em tendas, obedecendo literalmente a tudo o que Jonadabe, o nosso pai, nos ordenou. 11 Mas quando Nabucodonozor, rei da Babilónia, invadiu a terra, tivemos medo e decidimos vir para Jerusalém. É por isso que aqui estamos!”
12 Então o Senhor deu a Jeremias esta mensagem: 13 “O Senhor dos exércitos, o Deus de Israel, diz assim: Vai dizer a Jerusalém e a Judá: Porque não aprendem a lição das famílias de Recabe? 14 Eles não bebem porque foi essa a ordem de seu pai. Mas vocês, quantas e quantas vezes vos tenho lembrado os meus mandamentos e não querem ouvi-los nem obedecer. 15 Mandei-vos profetas atrás de profetas, para vos dizerem que se desviem dos vossos caminhos perversos, que parem de adorar ídolos; que, se me obedecerem, vos deixarei viver em paz aqui nesta terra que dei aos vossos antepassados. Mas continuam sempre sem querer ouvir-me e obedecer. 16 As famílias dos recabitas obedeceram integralmente ao seu antecessor, mas vocês recusaram ouvir-me!
17 Por isso, o Senhor Deus dos exércitos, o Deus de Israel, vos diz: Visto que recusam ouvir-me e responder, quando chamo a vossa atenção, enviarei sobre Jerusalém todo o mal com que a tenho ameaçado desde sempre.”
18 Então Jeremias foi ter com os recabitas e disse-lhes: “O Senhor dos exércitos, o Deus de Israel, diz que, pelo facto de terem obedecido ao vosso pai em todos os aspetos, 19 nunca faltará um descendente a Jonadabe, filho de Recabe, que me sirva!”

21st Century King James Version
35 The word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
2 “Go unto the house of the Rechabites and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of the Lord, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink.”
3 Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brethren and all his sons and the whole house of the Rechabites,
4 and I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door.
5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups; and I said unto them, “Drink ye wine.”
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 a house, nor sow seed, nor plant a vineyard, nor have any; but all your days ye shall dwell in tents, that ye may live many days in the land where ye are 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 us.
11 But it came to pass, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, ‘Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans and for fear of the army of the Syrians.’ So we dwell at Jerusalem.”
12 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,
13 “Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, ‘Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to My words?’ saith the Lord.
14 ‘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 father’s commandment. Notwithstanding I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking, but ye hearkened not unto Me.
15 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, 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.
16 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,
17 therefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel: 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.’”
18 And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, “Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘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,
19 therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not lack for a man to stand before Me for ever.’”

The Rekabites
35 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord during the reign of Jehoiakim(A) son of Josiah king of Judah: 2 “Go to the Rekabite(B) family and invite them to come to one of the side rooms(C) of the house of the Lord and give them wine to drink.”
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.(D) It was next to the room of the officials, which was over that of Maaseiah son of Shallum(E) the doorkeeper.(F) 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](G) son of Rekab gave us this command: ‘Neither you nor your descendants must ever drink wine.(H) 7 Also you must never build houses, sow seed or plant vineyards; you must never have any of these things, but must always live in tents.(I) Then you will live a long time in the land(J) where you are nomads.’ 8 We have obeyed everything our forefather(K) Jehonadab son of Rekab commanded us. Neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters have ever drunk wine 9 or built houses to live in or had vineyards, fields or crops.(L) 10 We have lived in tents and have fully obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab commanded us. 11 But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon invaded(M) this land, we said, ‘Come, we must go to Jerusalem(N) to escape the Babylonian[b] and Aramean armies.’ So we have remained in Jerusalem.”
12 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying: 13 “This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell(O) the people of Judah and those living in Jerusalem, ‘Will you not learn a lesson(P) and obey my words?’ declares the Lord. 14 ‘Jehonadab son of Rekab ordered his descendants not to drink wine and this command has been kept. To this day they do not drink wine, because they obey their forefather’s command.(Q) But I have spoken to you again and again,(R) yet you have not obeyed(S) me. 15 Again and again I sent all my servants the prophets(T) to you. They said, “Each of you must turn(U) from your wicked ways and reform(V) your actions; do not follow other gods(W) to serve them. Then you will live in the land(X) I have given to you and your ancestors.” But you have not paid attention or listened(Y) to me. 16 The descendants of Jehonadab son of Rekab have carried out the command their forefather(Z) gave them, but these people have not obeyed me.’
17 “Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘Listen! I am going to bring on Judah and on everyone living in Jerusalem every disaster(AA) I pronounced against them. I spoke to them, but they did not listen;(AB) I called to them, but they did not answer.’”(AC)
18 Then Jeremiah said to the family of the Rekabites, “This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘You have obeyed the command of your forefather(AD) Jehonadab and have followed all his instructions and have done everything he ordered.’ 19 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jehonadab son of Rekab will never fail(AE) to have a descendant to serve(AF) me.’”
