Jeremiah 35:6-8
New International Version - UK
6 But they replied, ‘We do not drink wine, because our forefather Jehonadab[a] son of Rekab gave us this command: “Neither you nor your descendants must ever drink wine. 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. Then you will live a long time in the land where you are nomads.” 8 We have obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab son of Rekab commanded us. Neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters have ever drunk wine
