Jacob Händl: Ecce quomodo moritur

Jacob Händl 

Ecce quomodo moritur justus, et nemo percipit corde, et viri justi tolluntur, et nemo considerat,
a facie iniquitatis sublatus est justus, et erit in pace memoria eius. In pace factus est locus eius, et in Sion habitatio eius. Et erit…

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.
