The Ruined Loincloth

13 Thus says the Lord to me, “Go and buy a linen loincloth and ^(A)put it round your waist, and do not dip it in water.”

³⁹ “You shall weave the coat in chequerwork of fine linen, and you shall make a turban of fine linen, and you shall make a sash embroidered with needlework.

⁴ He shall put on ^(A)the holy linen coat and shall have the linen undergarment on his body, and he shall tie the linen sash round his waist, and wear the linen turban; these are the holy garments. ^(B)He shall bathe his body in water and then put them on.

¹¹ And coming to us, he ^(A)took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, ^(B)“Thus says the Holy Spirit, ^(C)‘This is how the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and ^(D)deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’”
