1 H559 Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H1980 unto me, Go [H8800] H7069 and get [H8804] H6593 thee a linen H232 girdle H7760 , and put [H8804] H4975 it upon thy loins H935 , and put [H8686] H4325 it not in water.

2 H7069 So I got [H8799] H232 a girdle H1697 according to the word H3068 of the LORD H7760 , and put [H8799] H4975 it on my loins.

3 H1697 And the word H3068 of the LORD H8145 came unto me the second time H559 , saying [H8800] ,

4 H3947 Take [H8798] H232 the girdle H7069 that thou hast got [H8804] H4975 , which is upon thy loins H6965 , and arise [H8798] H3212 , go [H8798] H6578 to Euphrates H2934 , and hide [H8798] H5357 it there in a hole H5553 of the rock.

5 H3212 So I went [H8799] H2934 , and hid [H8799] H6578 it by Euphrates H3068 , as the LORD H6680 commanded [H8765] me.

6 H7093 And it came to pass after H7227 many H3117 days H3068 , that the LORD H559 said [H8799] H6965 unto me, Arise [H8798] H3212 , go [H8798] H6578 to Euphrates H3947 , and take [H8798] H232 the girdle H6680 from thence, which I commanded [H8765] H2934 thee to hide [H8800] there.

7 H3212 Then I went [H8799] H6578 to Euphrates H2658 , and digged [H8799] H3947 , and took [H8799] H232 the girdle H4725 from the place H2934 where I had hid [H8804] H232 it: and, behold, the girdle H7843 was marred [H8738] H6743 , it was profitable [H8799] for nothing.

8 H1697 Then the word H3068 of the LORD H559 came unto me, saying [H8800] ,

9 H559 Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H7843 , After this manner will I mar [H8686] H1347 the pride H3063 of Judah H7227 , and the great H1347 pride H3389 of Jerusalem.

10 H7451 This evil H5971 people H3987 , which refuse H8085 to hear [H8800] H1697 my words H1980 , which walk [H8802] H8307 in the imagination H3820 of their heart H3212 , and walk [H8799] H310 after H312 other H430 gods H5647 , to serve [H8800] H7812 them, and to worship [H8692] H232 them, shall even be as this girdle H6743 , which is good [H8799] for nothing.

11 H232 For as the girdle H1692 cleaveth [H8799] H4975 to the loins H376 of a man H1692 , so have I caused to cleave [H8689] H1004 unto me the whole house H3478 of Israel H1004 and the whole house H3063 of Judah H5002 , saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD H5971 ; that they might be unto me for a people H8034 , and for a name H8416 , and for a praise H8597 , and for a glory H8085 : but they would not hear [H8804] .
