    about the sons and daughters born in this place,
about the mothers who bore them,
and about the fathers who conceived them in this land:
    They will die of deadly diseases.
    They will not be mourned.
    They will not be buried.
    They will lie on the ground like manure.
    They will be devoured by sword and famine,
    and their carcasses will become food for the birds in the sky
    and the wild animals in the land.

Do not enter a house where people are grieving.
Do not go there to mourn for anyone or to comfort anyone,
for I have taken away my peace from this people, declares the Lord,
along with my mercy and my compassion.
