With a

Be careful that no one lures you with riches;
do not let a large ransom lead you astray.

Yet

‘Say to the house of Israel: This is what the Lord God says: I am about to desecrate My sanctuary, the pride of your power, the delight of your eyes, and the desire of your heart. Also, the sons and daughters you left behind will fall by the sword.

Then fire came from the Lord

and burned them to death before the Lord.

Do not weep for the dead;
do not mourn for him.
Weep bitterly for the one who has gone away,
for he will never return again
and see his native land.

We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, concerning those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

Thy tears

If my head were a spring of water,

my eyes a fountain of tears,
I would weep day and night
over the slain of my dear people.

But if you will not listen,
my innermost being will weep in secret
because of your pride.
My eyes will overflow with tears,
for the Lord’s flock has been taken captive.

צ TsadeThe hearts of the people cry out to the Lord.
Wall of Daughter Zion,
let your tears run down like a river
day and night.
Give yourself no relief
and your eyes no rest.

General references

Then you will do just as I have done: You will not cover your mustache or eat the bread of mourners.
