Isaiah 57:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

57 The righteous perish,
    and no one takes it to heart;
the devout are taken away,
    while no one understands.
For the righteous are taken away from calamity,
²     and they enter into peace;
those who walk uprightly
    will rest on their couches.
³ But as for you, come here,
    you children of a sorceress,
    you offspring of an adulterer and a whore.^[a]
