Isaiah 57:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

57 The righteous man perishes, and no one lays it to heart; and merciful and devout men are taken away, with no one considering that the uncompromisingly upright and godly person is taken away from the calamity and evil to come [even through wickedness].

² He [in death] enters into peace; they rest in their beds, each one who walks straight and in his uprightness.

³ But come close, you sons of a sorceress [nursed in witchcraft and superstition], you offspring of an adulterer and a harlot.
