Jeremiah 16:4-6
Living Bible
Jeremiah 16:4-6
Living Bible
4 shall die from terrible diseases. No one shall mourn for them or bury them, but their bodies shall lie on the ground to rot and fertilize the soil. They shall die from war and famine, and their bodies shall be picked apart by vultures and wild animals. 5 Do not mourn or weep for them, for I have removed my protection and my peace from them—taken away my loving-kindness and my mercies. 6 Both great and small shall die in this land, unburied and unmourned, and their friends shall not cut themselves nor shave their heads as signs of sorrow (as is their heathen custom).

Jeremiah 16:4-6
New International Version
4 “They will die of deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried(A) but will be like dung lying on the ground.(B) They will perish by sword and famine,(C) and their dead bodies will become food for the birds and the wild animals.”(D)
5 For this is what the Lord says: “Do not enter a house where there is a funeral meal; do not go to mourn or show sympathy, because I have withdrawn my blessing, my love and my pity(E) from this people,” declares the Lord. 6 “Both high and low will die in this land.(F) They will not be buried or mourned,(G) and no one will cut(H) themselves or shave(I) their head for the dead.
