7. And you shall not build houses, and you shall not sow any seeds, and you shall not plant or have vineyards. Instead, you shall live in tents all your days, so that you may live many days upon the face of the earth, in which you are sojourners.'
8. Therefore, we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he has commanded us, so that we do not drink wine all our days, we and our wives, our sons and daughters.
9. And we do not build houses in which to live. And we do not have vineyard, or field, or seed to sow.
10. Instead, we live in tents, and we have been obedient in accord with all that Jonadab, our father, has instructed us.
