Chapter 52

1

AND I answered and said: How can we forget those for whom woe is then reserved?

2

And why therefore do we again mourn for those who die? Or why do we weep for those who depart to She'ol?

3

Let lamentations be reserved for the beginning of that coming torment and let tears be laid up for the advent of the destruction of that time.

4

But even in the face of these things will I speak and as for the righteous what will they do now?

5

Rejoice ye in the suffering which ye now suffer: for why do ye look for the decline of your enemies?

6

Make ready your soul for that which is reserved for you and prepare your souls for the reward which is laid up for you.
