“The righteous perish.
No one takes it to heart.
The devout ones are taken away,
While no one understands.
The righteous ones
Are taken away from calamity.
They enter into peace.
Those who walk uprightly
Will rest on their couches.”
Third Isaiah seems to think that the no one seems to care about the death of the righteous Israelites. No one takes it to heart or understands what is happening. The righteous will be taken away from this present calamity. Those who walk upright will enter into peace, so that they can rest in their couch graves.
