Ezekiel 24:15-19

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

“Son of man, behold, I am about to take from you what is precious to your eyes with a fatal blow; but you shall not mourn and you shall not weep, and your tears shall not come.

Groan silently; do no mourning for the dead. Bind on your turban and put your sandals on your feet, and do not cover your mustache, and do not eat the bread of other people.”

So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. And in the morning I did as I was commanded.

And the people said to me, “Will you not tell us what these things mean for us, that you are doing?”
