Ezekiel 24:15-18

¹⁵Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

¹⁶“Son of man! Behold, I am taking the desire of your eyes from you with a plague, but you must not mourn nor weep, and your tears must not flow.

¹⁷You must groan silently. Do not conduct a funeral for the dead. Tie your turban on you and place your sandals on your feet, but do not veil your facial hair or eat the bread of men who mourn for having lost their wives.”

¹⁸So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening. In the morning I did what I had been commanded to do.
