Jeremiah:13:3-9
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time ,
saying ,
*
Take the girdle that thou hast got ,
which is upon thy loins ,
and arise ,
go to Euphrates ,
and hide it there in a hole of the rock .
*
So I went ,
and hid it by Euphrates ,
as the LORD commanded me .
*
And it came to pass after many days ,
that the LORD said unto me ,
Arise ,
go to Euphrates ,
and take the girdle from thence ,
which I commanded thee to hide there .
*
Then I went to Euphrates ,
and digged ,
and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it :
and ,
behold ,
the girdle was marred ,
it was profitable for nothing .
*
Then the word of the LORD came unto me ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the LORD ,
After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah ,
and the great pride of Jerusalem .
