O death, how welcome is your sentence to one who is needy and failing in strength, worn down by age and anxious about everything; to one who is contrary, and has lost all patience!
3
Do not fear death's decree for you; remember those who went before you and those who will come after.
4
This is the Lord's decree for all flesh; why then should you reject the will of the Most High? Whether life lasts for ten years or a hundred or a thousand, there are no questions asked in Hades.
5
The children of sinners are abominable children, and they frequent the haunts of the ungodly.
6
The inheritance of the children of sinners will perish, and on their offspring will be a perpetual disgrace.
