Isaiah 57:1-2

International Standard Version

Israel’s Idolatry

57 “Also^[a] the righteous are perishing,^[b]
    but no one takes it to heart;
devout people^[c] are taken away,
    while no one understands
        that the righteous person is taken away from calamity.
²Then^[d] he enters into peace,
    and^[e] they’ll rest on his^[f] couches,
        each one living righteously.^[g]
