And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come. He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.

And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, because thou art yet alive.
