KJV ORIGINAL
They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
They won't be able to bring wine offerings to God anymore, and nothing they do will make him happy. Their sacrifices will be like food at a funeral — contaminated and meaningless. Everyone who takes part will be spiritually unclean, because their worship won't even make it to God's house.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When you're cut off from God, even your best efforts feel empty and don't reach him.
