Poetry

---

Your respect for another is witness against,
And while your sin is open for all to view;
A curse on your soul that can not be fenced,
For the measure of your sin shines through.

Happy is the upright man abiding in the law,
And having joy in reaping fruit of his ways;
For the Lord has opened his eyes as he saw,
Truth in the light through all of his days.

But unhappy is the sinner who's in the dark,
For the reward of his evil doings will come;
Choosing the wrong path for him to embark,
Remaining in the eyes of God as deaf and dumb.

There're rulers on earth acting as a child,
And the authority has been given to women;
Your guidance causes you to wander wild,
Nearly every direction from under the sun.

The Lord is prepared to take up His cause,
And about to come forward as your judge;
If not following to the letter of His laws,
Cleansing yourself of each sinful smudge.
