Bible verse
There the wicked cease from raging, and there the weary find rest.
Job 3:17 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 3.
13 For now I would be lying down in peace; I would be asleep and at rest
14 with kings and counselors of the earth, who built for themselves cities now in ruins,
15 or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.
16 Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, like an infant who never sees daylight?
17 There the wicked cease from raging, and there the weary find rest.
18 The captives enjoy their ease; they do not hear the voice of the oppressor.
19 Both small and great are there, and the slave is freed from his master.
20 Why is light given to the miserable, and life to the bitter of soul,
21 who long for death that does not come, and search for it like hidden treasure,
KJV
There the wicked cease [from] troubling; and there the weary be at rest.
ASV
There the wicked cease from troubling; And there the weary are at rest.
