Perfect Peace is a Myth because it is a very weak translation of Isaiah 26:3. The NIV has Isaiah 26:3. You will keep in Perfect Peace him, whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.

The literal translation is:

Isaiah 26.1. On that Day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city. He will appoint salvation for walls and bulwarks. 2. Open the gates, so the righteous people who are keeping faithfulness will enter 3. Because he trusts in You, You will keep in Shalom Shalom the one whose mind is close to, dependent on, You.
