Ezekiel 24:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ Also the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

¹⁶ Son of man [Ezekiel], behold, I take away from you the desire of your eyes [your wife] at a single stroke. Yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears flow.

¹⁷ Sigh and groan, but not aloud [be silent]; make no mourning for the dead; bind your turban upon your head and put your shoes on your feet, and do not cover your beard or eat the bread of mourners [furnished by others].
