And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, Do not uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, that you not die, and wrath come upon all the people. But let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Jehovah has kindled.

You shall not shave around the corners of your head, nor shall you spoil the edges of your beard.

You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor put any etched marks on you: I am Jehovah.

You are the children of Jehovah your God; you shall not cut yourselves nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

One has gone up to the house, even to Dibon, the high places, to weep. Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba; baldness shall be on all their heads, and every beard cut off.

And in that day Jehovah of Hosts called for weeping and mourning, and for baldness, and for girding with sackcloth.

Both the great and the small shall die in this land. They shall not be buried, nor shall men mourn for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them.

For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped. On all the hands shall be cuttings, and on the loins sackcloth.

They shall neither shave their heads nor let their hair grow long; but they shall keep their hair clipped and trimmed.

And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation. And I will bring up sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head. And I will make it like the mourning for an only one; and the end of it like a bitter day.

Make yourself bald, and cut off your hair for your dainty children. Enlarge your baldness like the eagle, for they have gone from you into exile.
