Jeremiah 16:5-7
New American Standard Bible
5 For this is what the Lord says: “Do not enter a house of (A)mourning, or go to mourn or to console them; for I have (B)withdrawn My peace from this people,” declares the Lord, “and My (C)favor and compassion. 6 Both (D)great people and small will die in this land; they will not be buried, people will not mourn for them, nor will anyone (E)make cuts on himself or have his head (F)shaved for them. 7 People will not (G)break bread in mourning for them, to comfort anyone for the dead, nor give them a cup of consolation to drink for anyone’s father or mother.

Revised Standard Version
5 “For thus says the Lord: Do not enter the house of mourning, or go to lament, or bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says the Lord, my steadfast love and mercy. 6 Both great and small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried, and no one shall lament for them or cut himself or make himself bald for them. 7 No one shall break bread for the mourner, to comfort him for the dead; nor shall any one give him the cup of consolation to drink for his father or his mother.
