Targum su Isaia 57:76

The righteous die, and no man layeth my fear to heart; and the men who shew mercy are taken away, and they consider not that the righteous are taken away on account of the evil which shall come.

They shall enter into peace; they shall rest in the place of their beds, those that do His law.

But ye, come nigh hither, O people of a generation whose works are evil, whose plant was of a holy plant; but they are adulterers, and fornicators.

Of whom do ye make your sport? and before whom do ye open your mouth? do ye continue speaking great things? are ye not rebellious children, a lying seed?

Who worship idols beneath every green tree, who sacrifice the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks.

Among the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion; yea, there they shall be thy lot, even to them thou hast poured out drink-offerings, thou hast offered sacrifices; ah! on account of these things my WORD shall retribute.

Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set the place of the house of thy dwelling, even thither didst thou go up to sacrifice sacrifice.

Behind the doors and the posts hast thou set up the remembrance of thy idols; thou hast been like a woman who is beloved by her husband, but goeth astray after strangers; thou hast enlarged thy bed: thou hast made a covenant with some of them, thou lovedst the place, the place of their beds, the place thou hast chosen.

When thou didst keep the law, thou didst prosper in the kingdom; and when thou didst multiply for thyself good works, thy camp was enlarged, and thou didst send thy messengers to a distant land; and thou didst humble mighty nations unto bades.

Thou hast wearied thyself in the greatness of thy way; yet thou didst not thinks to return the many treasures thou hast multiplied, wherefore thou thoughtest not to repent.

And of whom hast thou been afraid? and on account of whom hast thou feared? Thou hast surely multiplied speaking lies, and thou hast not remembered my service, and hast not had my fear in thine heart: I would have given you the ends of the world, if you had returned to my law; but thou hast not returned to me.

I have shewn thee those good works, which would have been thy righteousness; but thou hast multiplied evil works which did not profit thee.

Proclaim aloud, whether thy deceitful works will save thee, in which thou hast been occupied from thy youth? the wind shall carry away all of them, they shall be as nothing: but he that putteth his trust in my WORD shall possess the earth, and shall inherit my holy mountain.

And he shall say, Teach and admonish, turn the heart of this people to the right way; remove the stumbling-block of the wicked out of the way of the congregation of my people.

For thus saith the high and lofty One, that dwelleth in the heavens, and whose name is Holy, who inhabits the height-yea, His holy Shekinah hath promised to save the contrite of heart, and the humble of spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to support the heart of the contrite.

For I will not take vengeance of judgment for ever, neither shall my wrath be eternal: I will revive the spirits of the dead, and the souls I have created.

My wrath is upon them on account of their robbed riches, and I smote them; I removed my Shekinah from them, and cast them out; I scattered their captives, because they went astray after the imagination of their hearts.

The way of their repentance is revealed before me, and I will forgive them, and I will have compassion upon them, and requite consolations to them and to those that mourn with them.

The prophet saith: He that creates the speech in the lips of every man, peace shall be wrought for the righteous, who have kept my law of old, and peace shall be wrought out for the penitent, who return to my law. It is at hand that I will pardon them, saith the Lord.

But the wicked are like the troubled sea, that seeketh to rest, but cannot, and its waters bring forth mire and dirt.

There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
