Poetry

---

Rejoice not when enemies fails,
Letting not your heart to be glad;
Let him suffer as he bewails,
His punishment is when is sad.

Lest the Lord sees and is displeased,
If he turns away from hie wrath;
As to repent become appeased,
To walk the straight and narrow path.

Fret not because of evildoers,
Be not jealous of the sinful;
In darkness they are pursuers,
Nothing they do is delightful.

The evil man has no future,
And no reward for the evil;
They work for a wicked creature,
A lamp that’s held by the devil.

Fear the Lord as well as the king,
Meddle not with them who make change;
Follow tradition that will bring,
As to what the Lord does arrange.

Disaster will rise suddenly,
Who knows the ruin to arrive;
From deception as heavenly,
As the chaos will start to strive.
