1 The righteous person perishes, and no one takes it to heart; the faithful are taken away, with no one realizing that the righteous person is taken away because of evil. 2 He will enter into peace — they will rest on their beds — everyone who lives uprightly. 3 But come here, you witch’s sons, offspring of an adulterer and a prostitute! 4 Who are you mocking? Who are you opening your mouth and sticking out your tongue at? Isn’t it you, you rebellious children, you offspring of liars, 5 who burn with lust among the oaks, under every green tree, who slaughter children in the wadis below the clefts of the rocks? 6 Your portion is among the smooth stones of the wadi; indeed, they are your lot. You have even poured out a drink offering to them; you have offered a grain offering; should I be satisfied with these? Isaiah 57:1-6, Christian Standard Bible.
