Jeremiah 16:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 For thus says the Lord concerning the sons and daughters who are born in this place and concerning the mothers who bore them and the fathers who begot them in this land:
4 They shall die of deadly diseases. They shall not be lamented, nor shall they be buried, but they shall be like dung upon the face of the ground. They shall perish and be consumed by the sword and by famine, and their dead bodies shall be food for the fowls of the air and for the beasts of the earth.
5 For thus says the Lord: Enter not into the house of mourning, nor go to lament or bemoan [the dead], for I have taken away My peace from this people, says the Lord, even My steadfast love and loving-kindness and tender mercy.

Jeremiah 16:3-5
New International Version
3 For this is what the Lord says about the sons and daughters born in this land and about the women who are their mothers and the men who are their fathers:(A) 4 “They will die of deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried(B) but will be like dung lying on the ground.(C) They will perish by sword and famine,(D) and their dead bodies will become food for the birds and the wild animals.”(E)
5 For this is what the Lord says: “Do not enter a house where there is a funeral meal; do not go to mourn or show sympathy, because I have withdrawn my blessing, my love and my pity(F) from this people,” declares the Lord.
