1. The righteous man perishes,and no man lays it to heart;and merciful men are taken awaywhile no one understands,for the righteous man is taken awayfrom the evil to come.
2. He shall enter into peace;they shall rest in their beds,each one walking in his uprightness.
3. But draw near to here, you sons of a sorceress,offspring of an adulterer and prostitute.
