Jeremiah 35:17-19

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ “Therefore thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Behold, I will bring upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, all the misery that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them but they would not hear. And I have called to them, but they would not answer.’”

¹⁸ And Jeremiah said to the House of the Rechabites, “Thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according to all that he has commanded you,

¹⁹ ‘therefore thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: “Jonadab, the son of Rechab, shall not lack a man to stand before Me, forever.”’”
