Holman Christian Standard Bible Help
57The righteous one perishes, and no one takes it to heart; faithful men are swept away, with no one realizing that the righteous one is swept away from the presence of evil.H6662H6H376H7760H3820H2617H582H622H995H6662H622H6440H74512He will enter into peace— they will rest on their beds— everyone who lives uprightly.H935H7965H5117H4904H1980H52283But come here, you sons of a sorceress, offspring of an adulterer and a prostitute!H7126H1121H6049H2233H5003H21814Who is it you are mocking? Who is it you are opening your mouth and sticking out your tongue at? Isn't it you, you rebellious children, you race of liars,H6026H7337H6310H748H3956H3206H6588H2233H82675who burn with lust among the oaks, under every flourishing tree, who slaughter children in the wadis below the clefts of the rocks?H2552H410H7488H6086H7819H3206H5158H5585H55536Your portion is among the smooth [stones] of the wadi; indeed, they are your lot. You have even poured out a drink offering to them; you have offered a grain offering; should I be satisfied with these?H2511H5158H2506H1486H8210H5262H5927H4503H51627You have placed your bed on a high and lofty mountain; you also went up there to offer sacrifice.H1364H5375H2022H7760H4904H5927H2076H20778You have set up your memorial behind the door and doorpost. For away from Me, you stripped, went up, and made your bed wide, and you have made a bargain for yourself with them. You have loved their bed; you have gazed on their genitals.H310H1817H4201H7760H2146H1540H5927H7337H4904H3772H157H4904H3027H23729You went to the king with oil and multiplied your perfumes; you sent your envoys far away and sent [them] down even to Sheol.H7788H4428H8081H7235H7547H7971H6735H7350H8213H758510You became weary on your many journeys, [but] you did not say, "I give up!" You found a renewal of your strength; therefore you did not grow weak.H3021H7230H1870H559H2976H4672H2416H3027H247011Who was it you dreaded and feared, so that you lied and didn't remember Me or take it to heart? Have I not kept silent for such a long time and you do not fear Me?H1672H3372H3576H2142H7760H3820H2814H5769H337212I will expose your righteousness, and your works— they will not profit you.H5046H6666H4639H327613When you cry out, let your collection [of idols] deliver you! The wind will carry all of them off, a breath will take them away. But whoever takes refuge in Me will inherit the land and possess My holy mountain.H2199H6899H5337H7307H5375H1892H3947H2620H5157H776H3423H6944H202214He said, "Build it up, build it up, prepare the way, remove [every] obstacle from My people's way."H559H5549H5549H6437H1870H7311H4383H1870H597115For the High and Exalted One who lives forever, whose name is Holy says this: "I live in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and lowly of spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the oppressed.H559H7311H5375H7931H5703H8034H6918H7931H4791H6918H1793H8217H7307H2421H7307H8217H2421H3820H179216For I will not accuse [you] forever, and I will not always be angry; for then the spirit would grow weak before Me, even the breath [of man], which I have made.H7378H5769H5331H7107H7307H5848H6440H5397H621317Because of his sinful greed I was angry, so I struck him; I was angry and hid; but he went on turning back to the desires of his heart.H5771H1215H7107H5221H5641H7107H3212H7726H1870H382018I have seen his ways, but I will heal him; I will lead him and comfort him and his mourners,H7200H1870H7495H5148H7999H5150H5719creating words of praise." The LORD says, "Peace, peace to the one who is far or near, and I will heal him.H1254H5108H8193H7965H7965H7350H7138H559H3068H749520But the wicked are like the storm-tossed sea, for it cannot be still, and its waters churn up mire and muck.H7563H1644H3220H3201H8252H4325H1644H7516H291621There is no peace for the wicked," says my God.H7965H559H430H7563
