@ 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.

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

@ But draw
near
hither, ye
sons
of the
sorceress
, the
seed
of the
adulterer
and the
whore
.
strkjv@Isaiah:57:4
@ 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

strkjv@Isaiah:57:5
@
Enflaming
yourselves with

green
tree

@ Among the
smooth
stones of the
stream
is thy
portion
; they, they are thy
lot
: even to them hast thou
poured
a drink
offering
, thou hast
offered
a meat
offering
. Should I receive
comfort
in these?
strkjv@Isaiah:57:7
@ Upon a
lofty
and
high
mountain
hast thou
set
thy
bed
: even thither wentest thou
up
to
offer
sacrifice
.
strkjv@Isaiah:57:8
@
Behind
the
doors
also and the
posts
hast thou set
up
thy
remembrance
: for thou hast
discovered
thyself to another than me, and art gone
up
; thou hast
enlarged
thy
bed
, and
made
thee a covenant with them; thou
lovedst
their
bed
where
thou
sawest
it.
strkjv@Isaiah:57:9
@ And thou
wentest
to the
king
with
ointment
, and didst
increase
thy
perfumes
, and didst
send
thy
messengers
far
off
, and didst
debase
thyself even unto
hell

@ Thou art
wearied
in the
greatness
of thy
way
; yet
saidst
thou not, There is no
hope
: thou hast
found
the
life
of thine
hand
; therefore thou wast not
grieved
.

@ And of whom hast thou been
afraid
or
feared
, that thou hast
lied
, and hast not
remembered
me, nor
laid
it to thy

? have not I held my
peace
even of
old
, and thou
fearest
me not?

@ I will
declare
thy
righteousness

thee.

@ When thou
criest
, let thy
companies
deliver
thee; but the
wind
shall carry them all

@ For the
iniquity
