Select language to translate this lyric

Behold how the righteous man dies
And no one understands.
The righteous men are taken away
are taken away)
and no one considers.
(And no one considers:)
The righteous man has been taken away from present iniquity
br/>And his memory shall be in peace.
As a sheep before her shearers is dumb,
and he did not open his mouth:
(so he opened not his mouth:)
He was taken from prison and from judgment. )
And his memory shall be in peace.
(And his memory shall be in peace.)
Behold how the righteous man dies
And no one understands.
(And no one understands.)
Righteous men are taken away
And no one considers.
(And no one considers:)
The righteous man has been taken away from present iniquity
and his memory shall be in peace:
(And his memory shall be in peace.)
