'Ease' in the Bible
His soul will dwell in prosperity and goodness,And his descendants will inherit the land.
When you lie down [to rest] among the sheepfolds,You [Israel] are like the wings of a dove [of victory] overlaid with silver,Its feathers glistening with gold [trophies taken from the enemy].
Behold, these are the ungodly,Who always prosper and are at ease [in the world]; they have increased in wealth.
For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand [anywhere else];I would rather stand [as a doorkeeper] at the threshold of the house of my GodThan to live [at ease] in the tents of wickedness.
Turn, O Lord [from Your fierce anger]; how long will it be?Be compassionate toward Your servants—revoke Your sentence.
And I will walk at liberty,For I seek and deeply long for Your precepts.
Our soul is greatly filledWith the scoffing of those who are at ease,And with the contempt of the proud [who disregard God’s law].
