Ezekiel 24:16-18
Revised Standard Version
16 “Son of man, behold, I am about to take the delight of your eyes away from you at a stroke; yet you shall not mourn or weep nor shall your tears run down. 17 Sigh, but not aloud; make no mourning for the dead. Bind on your turban, and put your shoes on your feet; do not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of mourners.”[a] 18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and at evening my wife died. And on the next morning I did as I was commanded.
