Contextual Overview

¹ Thus the LORD said to me, "Go and buy yourself a linen waistband and put it around your waist, but do not put it in water." ² So I bought the waistband in accordance with the word of the LORD and put it around my waist. ³ Then the word of the LORD came to me a second time, saying, ⁴ "Take the waistband that you have bought, which is around your waist, and arise, go to the Euphrates and hide it there in a crevice of the rock." ⁵ So I went and hid it by the Euphrates, as the LORD had commanded me. ⁶ After many days the LORD said to me, "Arise, go to the Euphrates and take from there the waistband which I commanded you to hide there." ⁷ Then I went to the Euphrates and dug, and I took the waistband from the place where I had hidden it; and lo, the waistband was ruined, it was totally worthless. ⁸ Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, ⁹ "Thus says the LORD, 'Just so will I destroy the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem.¹⁰ 'This wicked people, who refuse to listen to My words, who walk in the stubbornness of their hearts and have gone after other gods to serve them and to bow down to them, let them be just like this waistband which is totally worthless.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thus saith the Lord, after this manner,.... As this girdle has been hid in Euphrates, and has been marred and rendered useless; so in like manner, and by such like means,

will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem; or their glory, or excellency t; that which they gloried in, and were proud of; their city which was burnt, and their temple which was destroyed by the Chaldeans; their king, princes, and nobles, who were carried captive into Babylon, by the river Euphrates, and stripped of all their grandeur, honour, and glory; and so the Targum,

"so will I corrupt the strength of the men of Judah, and the strength of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, which is much;''

and to which agrees the Syriac version, which renders it,

"the proud or haughty men of Judah, and the many haughty men of Jerusalem.''
