Psalm 147: 12-15, 19-20. 8-13-2007. |
God's Word Restores Jerusalem.
Glorify the Lord, Jerusalem;
Zion, offer praise to your God,
Who has strengthened the bars of your gates,
blessed your children within you,
Brought peace to your borders,
and filled you with finest wheat.
The Lord sends a command to earth;
his word runs swiftly!
The Lord also proclaims his word to Jacob,
decrees and laws to Israel.
God has not done this for other nations;
of such laws they know nothing.
Hallelujah!

Any reply to that world peace prayer yet, padre?
It's been some time now, 3 months at least.
How many more prayers for world peace have been said in the meantime?
Doesn't seem to be working, does it?
Kinda makes you think that there are no gods to answer it, doesn't it?
Smiler,
The godless one

Psalm 147: 12-15, 19-20. 8-13-2007
Hosea 4:3-6 8-13-2007
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth
therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the
fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken
away.
Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as
they that strive with the priest.
Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall
fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast
rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no
priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I
will also forget thy children.
Also read:
Matthew 17: 22-27.
Deuteronomy 10: 12-22.
Couldn't be bothered.
Regards,
Josef
To know that the Bible is the literature of a barbarous people, to
know that it is uninspired, to be certain that the supernatural
does not and cannot exist - all this is but the beginning of
wisdom.

Since we are in to imaginational verse from the Middle East
here is my contribution:
Thy dawn, O Master of the world, thy dawn;
The hour the lilies open on the lawn,
The hour the grey wings pass beyond the mountains,
The hour of silence, when we hear the fountains,
The hour that dreams are brighter and winds colder,
The hour that young love wakes on a white shoulder,
O Master of the world, the Persian Dawn.
That hour, O Master, shall be bright for thee:
Thy merchants chase the morning down the sea,
The braves who fight thy war unsheathe the sabre,
The slaves who work thy mines are lashed to labour,
For thee the waggons of the world are drawn--
The ebony of night, the red of dawn!
- James Elroy Flecker

Secret Service')

A real set from the mideast that predates the bleater brigades.
"I went there of my own free will.
I went there in my finest gown,
With my rarest Jewels
With my Queen of Heaven crown.
In the Underworld
At each of the Seven Gates
I was stripped Seven times
Of all I thought I was
Till I stood bare in who I really am."
I doubt it is original, but neither were the Psalms, or no more real than
they had to be.To many parallels elsewhen & where.
walksalone who is not a poet, even if his feet show it.
