1. Thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go and buy thee a linen girdle and put it upon thy loins, and thou shalt not put it in water.
2. And I bought the girdle according to the word of the Lord and put it on my loins.
3. And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying,
4. Take the girdle that thou hast bought, which is upon thy loins, and arise; go to the Euphrates and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
