Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.

The verse 7 is found in chapter 13 of Jeremiah. The linen belt hidden by the Euphrates functions as a symbolic action. Just as the belt was meant to cling to the waist, God intended Judah and Israel to remain closely attached to him; however, pride made them useless. The symbol visually explains the relationship between election, closeness, and loss of purpose through disobedience.
