Jeremiah 16:1-4

New Living Translation NLT

1 The LORD gave me another message. He said,

2 “Do not get married or have children in this place.

3 For this is what the LORD says about the children born here in this city and about their mothers and fathers:

4 They will die from terrible diseases. No one will mourn for them or bury them, and they will lie scattered on the ground like manure. They will die from war and famine, and their bodies will be food for the vultures and wild animals.”

New International Version NIV

1 Then the word of the LORD came to me:

2 “You must not marry and have sons or daughters in this place.”

3 For this is what the LORD says about the sons and daughters born in this land and about the women who are their mothers and the men who are their fathers:

4 “They will die of deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried but will be like dung lying on the ground. They will perish by sword and famine, and their dead bodies will become food for the birds and the wild animals.”
