He said to his sons, “When I die, bury my body next to this prophet.
Don't sweep me away, as you do sinners. Don't punish me with death as you do those people who are brutal
I saw the wicked buried with honour, but God's people had to leave the holy city and were forgotten. None of this makes sense.
They are living alone in peace. And though they are many, they don't bother the other nations. “I hope to obey God for as long as I live and to die in such peace.”
I will die where you die and be buried beside you. May the LORD punish me if we are ever separated, even by death!”
