Latin text
Ecce quomodo moritur justus
et nemo percipit corde.
Viri justi tolluntur
et nemo considerat.
A facie iniquitatis
sublatus est justus
et erit in pace memoria eius:
in pace factus est locus ejus
et in Sion habitatio eius
et erit in pace memoria eius.
English translation
Behold how the righteous man dies
And no one understands.
Righteous men are taken away
And no one considers:
The righteous man has been taken away from present iniquity
And his memory shall be in peace.
In peace is his place
And in Sion is his homestead.
And his memory shall be in peace.
Dutch translation
Zie hoe de rechtvaardige sterft
En niemand gaat het ter harte
De rechtvaardigen worden weggerukt
En niemand let er op.
Vanwege het kwaad
Is de rechtvaardige weggenomen,
En zijn nagedachtenis zal in vrede zijn
In vrede is zijn woonplaats
En in Sion is zijn verblijf.
— vertaling Nico de Glas
