Isaiah 57
The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Isaiah 57:1
Read on and you will see.
Pay attention and you will understand.
Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death. Isaiah 57:2
Even as The Righteous One is laid in the tomb, the wicked rejoice. They see the silencing of the righteous as freedom for all their licentiousness ways.
“There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.” Isaiah 57:21
They do not consider that there are but 2 paths, 2 economies and that theirs is bankrupt. While the wicked may appear to be the survivors, it is in fact the sleeping giant who is victorious.
For this is what the high and exalted One says— he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite. Isaiah 57:15
