Isaiah 57:1-2
Revised Standard Version

Israel’s Futile Idolatry

57 The righteous man perishes,
and no one lays it to heart;
devout men are taken away,
    while no one understands.
For the righteous man is taken away from calamity,
2     he enters into peace;
they rest in their beds
    who walk in their uprightness.
