Jeremiah:16:4-7

*
They shall die of grievous deaths ;
they shall not be lamented ;
neither shall they be buried ;
but they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth :
and they shall be consumed by the sword ,
and by famine ra #
ab #;
and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of heaven ,
and for the beasts of the earth .
*
For thus saith the LORD ,
Enter not into the house of mourning ,
neither go to lament nor bemoan them :
for I have taken away my peace from this people ,
saith the LORD ,
even lovingkindness and mercies .
*
Both the great and the small shall die in this land :
they shall not be buried ,
neither shall men lament for them ,
nor cut themselves ,
nor make themselves bald for them :
*
Neither shall men tear themselves for them in mourning ,
to comfort them for the dead ;
neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother .
