⁵ They are not to have their hair cut off for the dead, or the hair on their chins cut short, or make cuts in their flesh.

¹ You are the children of the Lord your God: you are not to make cuts on your bodies or take off the hair on your brows in honour of the dead;

²⁰ They are not to have all the hair cut off their heads, and they are not to let their hair get long, but they are to have the ends of their hair cut.

²⁷ The ends of the hair round your face and on your chin may not be cut off.

²⁸ You may not make cuts in your flesh in respect for the dead, or have marks printed on your bodies: I am the Lord.

¹² And in that day the Lord, the Lord of armies, was looking for weeping, and cries of sorrow, cutting off of the hair, and putting on the clothing of grief:

¹⁶ Let your head be uncovered and your hair cut off in sorrow for the children of your delight: let the hair be pulled from your head like an eagle's; for they have been taken away from you as prisoners.

¹⁰ Your feasts will be turned into sorrow and all your melody into songs of grief; everyone will be clothed with haircloth, and the hair of every head will be cut; I will make the weeping like that for an only son, and the end of it like a bitter day.

³⁷ For everywhere the hair of the head and the hair of the face is cut off: on every hand there are wounds, and haircloth on every body.

⁶ Death will overtake great as well as small in the land: their bodies will not be put in a resting-place, and no one will be weeping for them or wounding themselves or cutting off their hair for them:

² The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places, weeping: Moab is sounding her cry of sorrow over Nebo, and over Medeba: everywhere the hair of the head and of the face is cut off.

⁶ And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, Do not let your hair be loose, and give no signs of grief; so that death may not overtake you, and his wrath come on all the people; but let there be weeping among your brothers and all the house of Israel for this burning of the Lord's fire.
