Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For just as a loincloth clings to a man’s waist, so I have made the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah cling to Me, declares the LORD, so that they might be My people for My renown and praise and glory. But they did not listen.
World English Bible (WEB)
For as the belt clings to the waist of a man, so have I caused to cling to me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, says Yahweh; that they may be to me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
Strong's King James
For as the girdle{H232} cleaveth{H1692}{(H8799)} to the loins{H4975} of a man{H376}, so have I caused to cleave{H1692}{(H8689)} unto me the whole house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} and the whole house{H1004} of Judah{H3063}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}; that they might be unto me for a people{H5971}, and for a name{H8034}, and for a praise{H8416}, and for a glory{H8597}: but they would not hear{H8085}{(H8804)}.
