Luke 2:29
Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:

Καὶ ἤκουσα φωνῆς ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ λεγούσης μοι Γράψον· Μακάριοι οἱ νεκροὶ οἱ ἐν κυρίῳ ἀποθνῄσκοντες ἀπαρτί ναί λέγει τὸ πνεῦμα ἵνα ἀναπαύσωνται ἐκ τῶν κόπων αὐτῶν τὰ δὲ ἔργα αὐτῶν ἀκολουθεῖ μετ' αὐτῶν
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.
וְאַתָּה תָּבוֹא אֶל-אֲבֹתֶיךָ בְּשָׁלוֹם תִּקָּבֵר בְּשֵׂיבָה טוֹבָֽה׃
And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
συνέχομαι γὰρ ἐκ τῶν δύο τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν ἔχων εἰς τὸ ἀναλῦσαι καὶ σὺν Χριστῷ εἶναι πολλῷ μᾶλλον κρεῖσσον·
For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
וַיֹּאמֶר יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יוֹסֵף אָמוּתָה הַפָּעַם אַֽחֲרֵי רְאוֹתִי אֶת-פָּנֶיךָ כִּי עֽוֹדְךָ חָֽי׃
And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, because thou art yet alive.
הַצַּדִּיק אָבָד וְאֵין אִישׁ שָׂם עַל-לֵב וְאַנְשֵׁי-חֶסֶד נֶֽאֱסָפִים בְּאֵין מֵבִין כִּֽי-מִפְּנֵי הָרָעָה נֶאֱסַף הַצַּדִּֽיק׃
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.
καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ κεχρηματισμένον ὑπὸ τοῦ πνεύματος τοῦ ἁγίου μὴ ἰδεῖν θάνατον πρὶν ἢ ἴδῃ τὸν Χριστὸν κυρίου
And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
שְׁמָר-תָּם וּרְאֵה יָשָׁר כִּֽי-אַחֲרִית לְאִישׁ שָׁלֽוֹם׃
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
