14. I, Yahweh, have spoken it: it shall happen, and I will do it: I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to your ways, and according to your doings, shall they judge you, says the Lord Yahweh.
15. Also Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
16. Son of man, behold, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke: yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
17. Sigh, but not aloud, make no mourning for the dead; bind your headdress on you, and put your shoes on your feet, and don’t cover your lips, and don’t eat men’s bread.
18. So I spoke to the people in the morning; and at evening my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
19. The people said to me, Won’t you tell us what these things are to us, that you do so?
