Jeremiah 16:6

Jeremiah Is Commanded Not To Marry

⁵ “For this is what the Lord says: Don’t enter a house where a mourning feast is taking place. Don’t go to lament or sympathize with them, for I have removed My peace from these people”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“as well as My faithful love and compassion. ⁶ Both great and small will die in this land without burial. No lament will be made for them, nor will anyone cut himself or shave his head for them. ⁷ Food won’t be provided for the mourner to comfort him because of the dead. A cup of consolation won’t be given him because of the loss of his father or mother.
