 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

poetryofadove

Inquire of a piece of wood,

Their walking staff gives them prophets;

For a spirit of whoredom should,

If God was a whore that profits.

 

They sacrifice on mountain tops,

Burning offerings on the hill;

While harvesting of their crops,

Whatever that was the Lord’s will.

 

Therefore, your daughters play the whore,

As wives commit adultery;

Shameful acts behind the locked door,

With immoral iniquity.

 

God will not punish your daughters,

That have been playing as the whore;

If baptized in sacred waters;

Nestled along the holy shore.

 

Neither of your adulteress bride,

For without the understanding;

For men themselves have gone aside,

What the lifestyle’s demanding.

 

Although Israel plays the wench,

Allow not Judah to hold guilt;

Throwing them not into the trench,

Let their faith to become rebuilt.

 

Neither enter into Gilgal,

Neither go up into Bet Haven;

But use insight to rationale,

God molds and shapes them as graven.

 

Israel is a stubborn calf,

The Lord will feed them like a lamb;

Be defiant with a good laugh,

Not caring for the great I AM.

 

Ephraim has been joined to idols,

Leaves them alone when the drinks are gone;

After the end of the scandals,

Then the night breaks for a new dawn.

 

Because their drinks have turned sour,

As their rulers dearly love shame;

Commits whoredom they devour,

Even without knowing their name.

 

Wind has wrapped her up in her wings,

They feel ashamed of their forfeit;

Because what the punishment brings,

The iniquity they commit.
