1The word of the Lord came to me.
2You are not to marry a wife in this place
or to have sons and daughters,
3because this is what the Lord says
about the sons and daughters born in this place,
about the mothers who bore them,
and about the fathers who conceived them in this land:
4They will die of deadly diseases.
They will not be mourned.
They will not be buried.
They will lie on the ground like manure.
They will be devoured by sword and famine,
and their carcasses will become food for the birds in the sky
and the wild animals in the land.
5This is what the Lord says.
Do not enter a house where people are grieving.
Do not go there to mourn for anyone or to comfort anyone,
for I have taken away my peace from this people, declares the Lord ,
along with my mercy and my compassion.
6Both the greatest and the least will die in this land.
No one will bury them or mourn for them.
No one will cut himself or shave himself for them.
7No one will break bread to comfort those who mourn the dead.
No one will offer a consoling cup, even for a father or a mother.
8Do not enter a house where there is feasting,
or sit down there to eat and drink.
9For this is what the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel, says.
I will certainly put an end to the sounds of joy and happiness in this place,
as well as the voices of bride and groom.
This will take place before your eyes and in your lifetime.
10When you tell the people all of this, they will ask you, “Why has the Lord decreed all this great disaster against us? What are we guilty of? What sin have we committed against the Lord our God?”
11Then say this to them:
19The Lord is my strength and my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
Nations will come to you from the ends of the earth and say,
“Our forefathers possessed only false gods,
worthless idols, and there was nothing good in them.
20Can a man make gods for himself?
Yes, but they are not gods!”
21Therefore I will certainly teach them.
This time I will teach them my power and my strength,
and then they will know that my name is the Lord .
