Jeremiah 13:3 In-Context

1 Thus says the LORD to me, Go, and buy you a linen belt, and put it on your loins, and don't put it in water.

2 So I bought a belt according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins.

4 Take the belt that you have bought, which is on your loins, and arise, go to the Perat, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.
