⭐ Weeping beside Ezekiel 24:16
When weeping is loud, Ezekiel 24:16 is a sentence you can borrow. ““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.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Parent tip
If the feeling is bigger than a verse, stay in the room. Ezekiel 24:16 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
