Jeremiah 13:9-11

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

After this manner will I mar
<07843> (8686)

the pride
<01347>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and the great
<07227>

pride
<01347>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

This evil
<07451>

people
<05971>_,

which refuse
<03987>

to hear
<08085> (8800)

my words
<01697>_,

which walk
<01980> (8802)

in the imagination
<08307>

of their heart
<03820>_,

and walk
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

to serve
<05647> (8800)

them, and to worship
<07812> (8692)

them, shall even be as this girdle
<0232>_,

which is good
<06743> (8799)

for nothing. {imagination: or, stubbornness}

For as the girdle
<0232>

cleaveth
<01692> (8799)

to the loins
<04975>

of a man
<0376>_,

so have I caused to cleave
<01692> (8689)

unto me the whole house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

and the whole house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

that they might be unto me for a people
<05971>_,

and for a name
<08034>_,

and for a praise
<08416>_,

and for a glory
<08597>_:

but they would not hear
<08085> (8804)_.
