Thematic Bible: Desolating effects of


Thematic Bible



Though a thousand fall at your side
and ten thousand at your right hand,
the pestilence will not reach you.

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. 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.
