Ezekiel 24:21-23
International Children’s Bible
21 ‘Say to the people of Israel, This is what the Lord God says: I am going to dishonor my Temple. You think it gives you strength. You are proud of it. You love to look at it. It makes you happy. But your sons and daughters that you left behind in Jerusalem will fall dead by the sword. 22 And you will do as I have done. You will not cover your face. You will not eat the food people eat when they are sad about a death. 23 Your turbans will be on your heads. And your sandals will be on your feet. You will not cry loudly. But you will rot away in your sins. You will groan to each other.

New International Version
21 Say to the people of Israel, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to desecrate my sanctuary(A)—the stronghold in which you take pride,(B) the delight of your eyes,(C) the object of your affection. The sons and daughters(D) you left behind will fall by the sword.(E) 22 And you will do as I have done. You will not cover your mustache and beard(F) or eat the customary food of mourners.(G) 23 You will keep your turbans(H) on your heads and your sandals(I) on your feet. You will not mourn(J) or weep but will waste away(K) because of[a] your sins and groan among yourselves.(L)
