5 For thus said Jehovah, Thou shalt not go in to the house of wailing, and thou shalt not go to lament and thou shalt not deplore for them, for I took away my peace from this people, says Jehovah; kindness and mercies.

6 And the great and small died in this land: they shall not be buried, and they shall not lament for them, and none shall cut himself or make bald for them:

7 They shall not break bread in mourning to comfort him for the dead; and they shall not give them to drink the cup of consolations for his father and for his mother.
