1 And I answered and said: How can we forget those for whom woe is then reserved? (2BA) 2 And why therefore do we again mourn for those who die? Or why do we weep for those who depart to Sheol? (2BA) 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. (2BA) 4 [But even in the face of these things will I speaks (2BA) 5 And as for the righteous, what will they do now? (2BA) 6 Rejoice ye in the suffering which ye now suffer: For why do ye look for the decline of your enemies? (2BA) 7 Make ready your soul for that which is reserved for you, And prepare your souls for the reward which is laid up for you.'] (2BA)
