Israel's Futile Idolatry

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

    enter into peace;
    they find rest(E) as they lie in death.
