Jeremiah 16:7-9
Living Bible
7 No one shall comfort the mourners with a meal nor send them a cup of wine expressing grief for their parents’ death.
8 As a sign to them of these sad days ahead,[a] don’t you join them anymore in their feasts and parties—don’t even eat a meal with them. 9 For the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: In your own lifetime, before your very eyes, I will end all laughter in this land—the happy songs, the marriage feasts, the songs of bridegrooms and of brides.
