4 “They will die grievous deaths. They will not be lamented, neither will they be buried. They will be as dung on the surface of the ground. They will be consumed by the sword and by famine. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.” Jeremiah 16:4WEB
5 For YHWH says, “Don’t enter into the house of mourning. Don’t go to lament. Don’t bemoan them, for I have taken away my peace from this people,” says YHWH, “even loving kindness and tender mercies. Jeremiah 16:5WEB

10 It will happen, when you tell this people all these words, and they ask you, ‘Why has YHWH pronounced all this great evil against us?’ or ‘What is our iniquity?’ or ‘What is our sin that we have committed against YHWH our God?’ Jeremiah 16:10WEB
11 then you shall tell them, ‘Because your fathers have forsaken me,’ says YHWH, ‘and have walked after other gods, have served them, have worshiped them, have forsaken me, and have not kept my law. Jeremiah 16:11WEB
12 You have done evil more than your fathers, for behold, you each walk after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you don’t listen to me. Jeremiah 16:12WEB
