Jeremiah 13:1-10

1This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saidH559 to meH413: “GoH1980 and buyH7069 yourself a linenH6593 loinclothH232 and putH7760 it aroundH5921 your waistH4975, but do notH3808 let it touchH935 waterH4325.”

2So I boughtH7069 a loinclothH232 in accordance with the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and I putH7760 it aroundH5921 my waistH4975.

3Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413 a second timeH8145H559: 4“TakeH3947 the loinclothH232 thatH834 you boughtH7069 and are wearingH5921H4975, and goH1980 at onceH6965 to PerathH65781 and hideH2934 it thereH8033 in a creviceH5357 of the rocksH5553.”

5So I wentH1980 and hid itH2934 at PerathH6578, asH834 the LORDH3068 had commanded meH6680.

ManyH7227 daysH3117 laterH7093 the LORDH3068 saidH559 to meH413, “AriseH6965, goH1980 to PerathH6578, and getH3947 the loinclothH232 thatH834 I commandedH6680 you to hideH2934 thereH8033.” 7So I wentH1980 to PerathH6578 and dug upH2658 the loinclothH232, and I tookH3947 it fromH4480 the placeH4725 whereH834 I had hidden itH2934H8033. But nowH2009 it was ruinedH7843—of noH3808 useH6743 at allH3605.

8Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413H559: 9“This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559: In the same wayH3602 I will ruinH7843 the prideH1347 of JudahH3063 andH853 the greatH7227 prideH1347 of JerusalemH3389. 10TheseH2088 evilH7451 peopleH5971, who refuseH3987 to listenH8085 to My wordsH1697, who followH1980 the stubbornnessH8307 of their own heartsH3820, and who goH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 and worshipH7812 them, they will beH1961 like thisH2088 loinclothH232—of noH3808 useH6743 at allH3605.
