2 To a man that is at rest, and whose ways are prosperous in all things, and that is yet able to take meat!
3 O death, thy sentence is welcome to the man that is in need, and to him whose strength faileth:
4 Who is in a decrepit age, and that is in care about all things, and to the distrustful that loseth patience!
5 Fear not the sentence of death. Remember what things have been before thee, and what shall come after thee: this sentence is from the Lord upon all flesh.
6 And what shall come upon thee by the good pleasure of the most High? whether ten, or a hundred, or a thousand years.
7 For among the dead there is no accusing of life.
8 The children of sinners become children of abominations, and they that converse near the houses of the ungodly.
