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

Israel’s Futile Idolatry

57 The righteous perishes,
And no man takes it to heart;
(A)Merciful men are taken away,
(B)While no one considers
That the righteous is taken away from [a]evil.
He shall enter into peace;
They shall rest in (C)their beds,
Each one walking in his uprightness.
