RF ISA 57:1 ODE 52.
The Death of the Good.
The Righteous has perished;—
But none lay it to heart,—
And the kind man lies buried;
RF ISA 57:2 Yes, the Good is removed,
But no one will reflect!
From the face of the Bad,
They go, and have comfort in peace,
They go to their rest on their beds.
RF ISA 57:3 But, you Sons of Deception approach,
You seed of adulterer and whore,
RF ISA 57:4 Against whom do you jeer?
On whom open your mouth?
At whom stretch out your tongue?
Are you not the children of Sin,
And the Seed of Disgrace?
RF ISA 57:5 Foul with lust under every green tree?
With child-murder in valleys?
And hid in the shrubs of the rocks?
RF ISA 57:6 From the Nymphs of the river you choose,—
They, they are your lot!—
Yes, to them you pour wine,—
And you offer your gifts!—
How can I approve you for that?
RF ISA 57:7 On the hill high and lofty,
You spread out your bed,
RF ISA 57:8 Behind doors, and hinges—
You reminders set up.
For from Me you have turned,
But have spread out your bed,
And joined them to yourself!
And loved watching their couch!
RF ISA 57:9 Abroad seeking the King,
You increased your perfumes;
Your agents went far,
And they sunk down to hell!
RF ISA 57:10 Worn out with long journeys,
You cried "There is no hope."—
But, as you still possessed life,
You did not quite despair.
RF ISA 57:11 What fear made you false,
And My powers forget?
And placed not to your heart,
Because I long was still?
So you feared not My might?
RF ISA 57:12 So I tell you the truth,
That your Idols help not;
RF ISA 57:13 When you ask their protection
The Wind blows them away,
And a breath will take off!—
Who trusts Me owns the Land,
And has MY Holy Hill!
RF ISA 57:14 ODE 53.
How God Helps the Repentant.
I order to build up and level the road,
Pick the stones from the path of My feet,
RF ISA 57:15 For thus says the Mighty, the LIVING on high,—
His Name High and Holy, and Holy His Home;—
"The meek humble souled I will cause to revive,
Will renew the meek spirit and broken in heart,
RF ISA 57:16 For not always I blame, and not always reprove.
RF ISA 57:17 Vexed, I punished his sin, but in mercy I struck,
And was wroth when he turned to the road of his heart.—
RF ISA 57:18 I saw his vile ways,—but will heal and will lead,
And give comfort to him for his griefs,
RF ISA 57:19 Making Gentle-lipped Peace,—peace to distant and near,
"Says the LORD Who will heal him."
RF ISA 57:20 "But the Wicked shall toss like the Sea,—
Which never can rest,—
Which casts up from her waters the mire and dirt,
RF ISA 57:21 There is no Peace," says my GOD, "for the Wicked.
