So I got a girdle
Or, bought ^F14 a linen one, as directed: according to the word of the Lord;

Jeremiah 13:2 In-Context

1 ADONAI said to me, "Go, buy yourself a linen loincloth, and wrap it around your body; but don't soften it in water."

2 So I bought a loincloth, as ADONAI had said, and put it on.

3 Then the word of ADONAI came to me a second time:

4 "Take the loincloth you bought and are wearing, get up, go to Parah, and hide it there in a hole in the rock."

5 So I went and hid it in Parah, as ADONAI had ordered me.
