In Context

1 This is what the Lord said to me: "Go and buy a linen belt and put it around your waist, but do not let it touch water."

2 So I bought a belt, as the Lord directed, and put it around my waist.

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

4 "Take the belt you bought and are wearing around your waist, and go now to Perath and hide it there in a crevice in the rocks."

5 So I went and hid it at Perath, as the Lord told me.
