11 For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the LORD; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
11 Maana kama vile mshipi unavyoshikamana na viuno vya mtu, ndivyo nilivyowashikamanisha nami nyumba yote ya Israeli; na nyumba yote ya Yuda, asema Bwana; wapate kuwa watu kwangu mimi, na jina, na sifa, na utukufu; lakini hawakutaka kusikia.
