¹⁷ There the wicked cease from troubling; And there the weary are at rest.

¹³ And I heard the voice from heaven saying, Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth: yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; for their works follow with them.

¹⁶ It shall go down to the bars of Sheol, When once there is rest in the dust.

⁸ (for that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed `his' righteous soul from day to day with `their' lawless deeds):

¹¹ Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience.

⁹ There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest for the people of God.

⁶ if so be that it is righteous thing with God to recompense affliction to them that afflict you,

⁷ and to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power in flaming fire,

⁴ And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

²⁸ And be not afraid of them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

⁵ Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, And horror hath overwhelmed me.

⁶ And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then would I fly away, and be at rest.

⁷ Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah

⁸ I would haste me to a shelter From the stormy wind and tempest.

¹³ Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, That thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, That thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
