Isaiah 57:1-5

1. 1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.

2. 2 He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

3. 3 But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.

4. 4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,

5. 5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?
