Ezekiel 24:16-23

16“SonH1121 of manH120, beholdH2009, I am about to takeH3947 from you the 1desireH4261 of your eyesH5869 with a 2blowH4046; but you shall not 3mournH5594 and you shall not weepH1058, and your 4tearsH1832 shall not comeH935.

17GroanH602 silentlyH1826; makeH6213 5noH3808 mourningH60 for the deadH4191. BindH2280 on your turbanH6287 and putH7760 your shoesH5275 on your feetH7272, and do not coverH5844 your mustacheH8222 and 6do not eatH398 the breadH3899 of menH376.”

18So I spokeH1696 to the peopleH5971 in the morningH1242, and in the eveningH6153 my wifeH802 diedH4191. And in the morningH1242 I didH6213 as I was commandedH6680.

19The peopleH5971 saidH559 to me, “Will you not tellH5046 us whatH4100 theseH428 thingsH428 that you are doingH6213 mean for us?”

20Then I saidH559 to them, “The wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me sayingH559,

21‘SpeakH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068, ‘BeholdH2009, I am about to profaneH2490 My sanctuaryH4720, the prideH1347 of your powerH5797, the 7desireH4261 of your eyesH5869 and the delightH4263 of your soulH5315; and your 8sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 whomH834 you have leftH5800 behindH5800 will fallH5307 by the swordH2719.

22You will doH6213 as I have doneH6213; you will not coverH5844 your mustacheH8222 and you will not eatH398 the breadH3899 of menH376.

23Your turbansH6287 will be on your headsH7218 and your shoesH5275 on your feetH7272. You 9will not mournH5594 and you will not weepH1058, but 10you will rotH4743 awayH4743 in your iniquitiesH5771 and you will groanH5098 11to oneH376 anotherH251.
