1 The just one perished and none put upon the heart: men of kindness being taken away, for none understanding that the just one was taken away from the face of evil. 2 He shall come into peace: they shall rest upon their beds, he went in his justice. 3 And ye, come ye near here, sons of her practicing magic, seed of the adulterer and the harlot. 4 Against whom will ye deride? against whom will ye make broad the mouth, will ye thrust out the tongue? are ye not children of transgressing and a seed of falsehood? 5 Being comforted with gods under every green tree, slaughtering the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks? 6 In the smoothnesses of the torrent they thy portion, they thy lot; also to them thou didst pour out a libation, thou didst bring up a gift Shall I be comforted with these? Isaiah 57:1-6, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
