5 So I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as the Lord commanded me.
6 And after many days the Lord said to me, "Go now to the Euphrates, and take from there the loincloth that I commanded you to hide there."

9 Thus says the Lord: Just so I will ruin the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem.
