Context: Pagan people cut and tattooed themselves, to remember their dead, and to try to influence their gods to react favourably to themselves.
Summary: The LORD was telling His people to _not_ behave like the pagans.
Are today's women who pierce themselves to hold jewelry behaving like those pagans? No.
