Jeremiah 16:7

וְלֹֽא־יִפְרְס֥וּ לָהֶ֛ם עַל־אֵ֖בֶל לְנַחֲמ֣וֹ עַל־מֵ֑ת וְלֹֽא־יַשְׁק֤וּ אוֹתָם֙ כּ֣וֹס תַּנְחוּמִ֔ים עַל־אָבִ֖יו וְעַל־אִמּֽוֹ׃
vloʾ-yiprsv lahem ʿal-ʾebel lnaḥamvo ʿal-met vloʾ-yashqv ʾvotam kvos tanḥvmiym ʿal-ʾabiyv vʿal-ʾimvo
King James Version (KJV)

Neither shall {men} tear {themselves} for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall {men} give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother. {tear...: or, break bread for them}

Modern English

Men won’t break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead. Men won’t give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
