Isaiah 57

57:1 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.

57:2 He shall enter into peace: 
they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

57:3 But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.

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.

57:5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, 
slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks? 

57:6 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? 

57:7 Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: 
even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.

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.

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.

57:10 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.

57:11 And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, 
and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? 
have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not? 

57:12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.

57:13 When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; 
but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: 
but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain; 

57:14 And shall say, 
Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.

57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; 
I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, 
to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

57:16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth:
for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.

57:17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him:
I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.

57:18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: 
I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.

57:19 I create the fruit of the lips; 
Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.

57:20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.

57:21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
