Jeremiah 13:8 YLT

⁶  And it cometh to pass, at the end of many days, that Jehovah saith unto me, 'Rise, go to Phrat, and take thence the girdle, that I commanded thee to hide there;'

⁷  and I go to Phrat, and dig, and take the girdle from the place where I had hid it; and lo, the girdle hath been marred, it is not profitable for anything.

⁸  And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah:

⁹  Thus do I mar the excellency of Judah, And the great excellency of Jerusalem.

¹⁰  This evil people, who refuse to hear My words, Who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, And go after other gods to serve them, And to bow themselves to them, Yea it is -- as this girdle, that is not profitable for anything.
