Isaiah 57:1-2
Lexham English Bible
Idolatry is Adultery
57 The righteous one perishes, and there is no one who takes[a] it to heart.
And men of faithfulness are gathered, while there is no one who understands,
for the righteous is gathered from the presence of wickedness.
2 he enters into peace;
they will rest on their beds,
walking straight ahead of him.

Each one walking in his uprightness.
