Amos 6:10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 When a relative or one who prepares the body picks up the remains
to carry them out of the house,
If he says to someone in the recesses of the house,
“Is anyone with you?” and the answer is, “No one,”
Then he shall say, “Silence!”
for no one must mention the name of the Lord.[a](A)
Amos 6:10
New International Version
10 And if the relative who comes to carry the bodies out of the house to burn them[a](A) asks anyone who might be hiding there, “Is anyone else with you?” and he says, “No,” then he will go on to say, “Hush!(B) We must not mention the name of the Lord.”
