Jeremiah 13:3 In-Context

1 Thus the Lord said to me: "Go and get yourself a linen sash, and put it around your waist, but do not put it in water."

2 So I got a sash according to the word of the Lord, and put it around my waist.

3 And the word of the Lord came to me the second time, saying,

4 "Take the sash that you acquired, which is around your waist, and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole in the rock."

5 So I went and hid it by the Euphrates, as the Lord commanded me.
