Jeremiah 13
God gives Jeremiah some divine instructions about a girdle. He tells him not to wash it, but to hide (bury?) it in a rock. Jeremiah does as he's told. But, alas, when he goes to retrieve it, it was ruined.
13:1 Thus saith the LORD unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water. (13:1-7)
13:2 So I got a girdle according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins. 13:3 And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying, 13:4 Take the girdle that thou hast got, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock. 13:5 So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as the LORD commanded me. 13:6 And it came to pass after many days, that the LORD said unto me, Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded thee to hide there. 13:7 Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
