Jonah and Ephraim








Jonah came to me, " Mum, I want a mother !" He said. Then I told him if he's not able to overcome what happened in his past life, he'd better be a roaming panther in blue mountain. But God said he would not reject children and let them come. Jonah worked hard and has won his qualification to become a baby to this world . Then I told him, " I don't know if you still have any trouble even as a spirit, but if you do, come back to mummy." Then I saw the cat stretched her paw, the claw further curl and stretched , then she changed into a  Qilin. " Oh well, you are quiet capable as a legend animal!"




I had these visions days ago. Solomon turned into a vampire and bit me,(it's before I saw that movie about blood-sucking vampires) and we both turned skeleton. And I asked him why he did that, he said it's for "eternity"

Then I saw Lacey Nicole Mosley lay down on a bed, naked like a desperate drug addicted . As Solomon stretched his hand for her again, they both sink into kind of desperation with smell of death, feeling of doom. Lacey was in a state of living dead, and so is he.

At this time he was suddnely in my womb, but as a girl, giggling without any worries, neither any ambitions, he was somehow jolly and carefree, is a true image of a kid. She's a daughter, she said " Mama, don't abandon me". Then I asked Jonah, who's aside, if we should accept him. Jonah nodded understandingly. Then I asked Jonah, how about you? Will she bring any trouble to your life as past? Then I saw him grow. When the girl came, he was around 3-4, then he grow, as a kid he's smart , understanding and with unusual composure. Then I saw him grew into adult, in helmet and armor, like a warrior. The girl was giggling still without any worries in my womb, and at this time I saw her skin is blue, and she has a shining pearl in her hand.


(newly discovered picture, from Paradise )

I'm worried then I asked Solomon to look at Lacey Mosley again. Then I asked what's the next life of Lacey Nicole Mosley, I saw a toy panda, but in fact, hour later I saw a picture of red panda. When I mentioned about the next life, her spirit come out from her body and rising to night sky , at this time a needle fall down from the sky. But as she thought about the next life, she seemed to refresh energy from her drug-addictive desperation.

And ask him if he wish still to stay with the girl. But he then got horny again. They seemed to regain energy, but as they drew close to each other, they both turned into skeletons.

This time I heard a voice from Solomon, like a girl " Mama, don't abandon me". This time I saw a picture of Mary like the first picture. But it's a reversed version. The wind blow from the right side, and the child in left arm, that is the right side. He is Jonah, composed in my arm, as a child he seemed to have unusual wisdom. There's not any visible figure on either side, but there're two angles at the bottom. But with their back toward audience. The child in the left, stretched his arm and hand toward me and say " Mama, don't abandon me!"

But this time she was rejected for the next life. AlsoI was talking to the God, as I don't think any necessity for the next life of Lacey Mosley.

Then the second day, I saw the jolly little girl of 2 years old, a daughter, with blond hair, she was giggling brightly. I then said, Jonah, I said I didn't want her. Then I saw a 5 years boy walked with her hand in hand, like a little elder brother. They walked in the sky, then Jonah's face suddenly burning like a sun. Then his body and face split apart. His head rising higher into sky with a black umbrella and a wizard's hat aside, and his body was still hand in hand with the little girl.

Hosea 9


Punishment for Israel
1Do not rejoice, O Israel;
do not be jubilant like the other nations.
For you have been unfaithful to your God;
you love the wages of a prostitute
at every threshing floor.
2Threshing floors and winepresses will not feed the people;
the new wine will fail them.
3They will not remain in the Lord’s land;
Ephraim will return to Egypt
and eat uncleana food in Assyria.
4They will not pour out wine offerings to the Lord,
nor will their sacrifices please him.
Such sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners;
all who eat them will be unclean.
This food will be for themselves;
it will not come into the temple of the Lord.
5What will you do on the day of your appointed feasts,
on the festival days of the Lord?
6Even if they escape from destruction,
Egypt will gather them,
and Memphis will bury them.
Their treasures of silver will be taken over by briers,
and thorns will overrun their tents.
7The days of punishment are coming,
the days of reckoning are at hand.
Let Israel know this.
Because your sins are so many
and your hostility so great,
the prophet is considered a fool,
the inspired man a maniac.
8The prophet, along with my God,
is the watchman over Ephraim,b
yet snares await him on all his paths,
and hostility in the house of his God.
9They have sunk deep into corruption,
as in the days of Gibeah.
God will remember their wickedness
and punish them for their sins.
10“When I found Israel,
it was like finding grapes in the desert;
when I saw your fathers,
it was like seeing the early fruit on the fig tree.
But when they came to Baal Peor,
they consecrated themselves to that shameful idol
and became as vile as the thing they loved.
11Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird—
no birth, no pregnancy, no conception.
12Even if they rear children,
I will bereave them of every one.
Woe to them
when I turn away from them!
13I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre,
planted in a pleasant place.
But Ephraim will bring out
their children to the slayer.”
14Give them, O Lord—
what will you give them?
Give them wombs that miscarry
and breasts that are dry.
15“Because of all their wickedness in Gilgal,
I hated them there.
Because of their sinful deeds,
I will drive them out of my house.
I will no longer love them;
all their leaders are rebellious.
16Ephraim is blighted,
their root is withered,
they yield no fruit.
Even if they bear children,
I will slay their cherished offspring.”
17My God will reject them
because they have not obeyed him;
they will be wanderers among the nations.


 

Hosea 11

God’s Love for Israel
 1 “When Israel was a child, I loved him,
   and out of Egypt I called my son.
2 But the more they were called,
   the more they went away from me.[a]
They sacrificed to the Baals
   and they burned incense to images.
3 It was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
   taking them by the arms;
but they did not realize
   it was I who healed them.
4 I led them with cords of human kindness,
   with ties of love.
To them I was like one who lifts
   a little child to the cheek,
   and I bent down to feed them.
 5 “Will they not return to Egypt
   and will not Assyria rule over them
   because they refuse to repent?
6 A sword will flash in their cities;
   it will devour their false prophets
   and put an end to their plans.
7 My people are determined to turn from me.
   Even though they call me God Most High,
   I will by no means exalt them.
 8 “How can I give you up, Ephraim?
   How can I hand you over, Israel?
How can I treat you like Admah?
   How can I make you like Zeboyim?
My heart is changed within me;
   all my compassion is aroused.
9 I will not carry out my fierce anger,
   nor will I devastate Ephraim again.
For I am God, and not a man—
   the Holy One among you.
   I will not come against their cities.
10 They will follow the LORD;
   he will roar like a lion.
When he roars,
   his children will come trembling from the west.
11 They will come from Egypt,
   trembling like sparrows,
   from Assyria, fluttering like doves.
I will settle them in their homes,”
   declares the LORD.

Hosea 12

Israel’s Sin
 12 Ephraim has surrounded me with lies,
   Israel with deceit.
And Judah is unruly against God,
   even against the faithful Holy One.[b]


 1 [a]1 Ephraim feeds on the wind;
   he pursues the east wind all day
   and multiplies lies and violence.
He makes a treaty with Assyria
   and sends olive oil to Egypt.
2 The LORD has a charge to bring against Judah;
   he will punish Jacob[b] according to his ways
   and repay him according to his deeds.
3 In the womb he grasped his brother’s heel;
   as a man he struggled with God.
4 He struggled with the angel and overcame him;
   he wept and begged for his favor.
He found him at Bethel
   and talked with him there—
5 the LORD God Almighty,
   the LORD is his name!
6 But you must return to your God;
   maintain love and justice,
   and wait for your God always.

 7 The merchant uses dishonest scales
   and loves to defraud.
8 Ephraim boasts,
   “I am very rich; I have become wealthy.
With all my wealth they will not find in me
   any iniquity or sin.”

 9 “I have been the LORD your God
   ever since you came out of Egypt;
I will make you live in tents again,
   as in the days of your appointed festivals.
10 I spoke to the prophets,
   gave them many visions
   and told parables through them.”

 11 Is Gilead wicked?
   Its people are worthless!
Do they sacrifice bulls in Gilgal?
   Their altars will be like piles of stones
   on a plowed field.
12 Jacob fled to the country of Aram[c];
   Israel served to get a wife,
   and to pay for her he tended sheep.
13 The LORD used a prophet to bring Israel up from Egypt,
   by a prophet he cared for him.
14 But Ephraim has aroused his bitter anger;
   his Lord will leave on him the guilt of his bloodshed
   and will repay him for his contempt.


1 When Ephraim spoke, people trembled;
   he was exalted in Israel.
   But he became guilty of Baal worship and died.
2 Now they sin more and more;
   they make idols for themselves from their silver,
cleverly fashioned images,
   all of them the work of craftsmen.
It is said of these people,
   “They offer human sacrifices!
   They kiss[a] calf-idols!”
3 Therefore they will be like the morning mist,
   like the early dew that disappears,
   like chaff swirling from a threshing floor,
   like smoke escaping through a window.

 4 “But I have been the LORD your God
   ever since you came out of Egypt.
You shall acknowledge no God but me,
   no Savior except me.
5 I cared for you in the wilderness,
   in the land of burning heat.
6 When I fed them, they were satisfied;
   when they were satisfied, they became proud;
   then they forgot me.
7 8 Like a bear robbed of her cubs,
   I will attack them and rip them open;
like a lion I will devour them—
   a wild animal will tear them apart.

 9 “You are destroyed, Israel,
   because you are against me, against your helper.
10 Where is your king, that he may save you?
   Where are your rulers in all your towns,
of whom you said,
   ‘Give me a king and princes’?
11 So in my anger I gave you a king,
   and in my wrath I took him away.
12 The guilt of Ephraim is stored up,
   his sins are kept on record.
13 Pains as of a woman in childbirth come to him,
   but he is a child without wisdom;
when the time arrives,
   he doesn’t have the sense to come out of the womb.

 14 “I will deliver this people from the power of the grave;
   I will redeem them from death.
Where, O death, are your plagues?
   Where, O grave, is your destruction?

   “I will have no compassion,
 15 even though he thrives among his brothers.
An east wind from the LORD will come,
   blowing in from the desert;
his spring will fail
   and his well dry up.
His storehouse will be plundered
   of all its treasures.
16 The people of Samaria must bear their guilt,
   because they have rebelled against their God.
They will fall by the sword;
   their little ones will be dashed to the ground,
   their pregnant women ripped open.”[b]

The Trade Correspondence of Solomon

These are the email prints of trade correspondence. As we browse we may know more details of business and people involved.

Situation is changing, if I'm the only one to hold these I'm not safe. I know it's premature for the release, but I worried more is if anything happened to me, then no one is to see them any more. In current situation, it's no safe to keep secret, or the day may never come. So it's better to open to public.

For long time , people waiting for justice, but unable to achieve. Worried about the justice system corrupted jury. This is the reason people hold back with restraint and prudence. But the day seems never to come. You know why now, as behind these law servicers are also guns. Dads pamper their daughters to behead the just, trading for sexual satisfaction.


The thread in PDF is Solomon.

Michelle should have idea where are they from. This message is recorded on Wednesday.

The time in the system used is American time. Adelaide local time is Wednesday, one day in advance.


Here



This message is recorded on Thursday after the first passage.

Wednesday I had a vision,  It's Lacey Nicole Mosley of Flyleaf from Texas. She was in short hair, a strange man put a rope around her neck and pull...  Two hours later, I heard someone's brother hanged himself last week , named Mark.  He used to be a brick layer. I know this case is related with Lacey Nicole Mosley.

The two teenager Wednesday night in Hindley Street Police, are related to Nicole. They have filled in a form, but I'm more interested about the identity of the fat girl. I have clearly seen the structure, that girls in domination.


How do I know they are related with Lacey Nicole Mosley.

I came to the station for a message from Mark's brother.When we talked about the dead Mark , he received a message from stranger on his phone

"Would u Like 2 meet at Mackers in Hind St 4 Munchies." 

Mark's brother had just been kicked out from his landlord. He will be on the street.

 I then asked these two teenagers outside the station.

I asked them " do you know Nicole?"

The boy said " no.." the fat girls said " I'm Nicole"

There must be one of them lying. What's the motive of lying ?


If the boy is lying:  Doesn't he know the name of his girlfriend "Nicole"? 
Motive :  ... avoiding something... what to avoid(hide)? suggesting fear....

The girl : If the girl is lying, she isn't named Nicole ... but said she is
Motive... I'm here, I know her , so WHat? ... jumping on a over confident mood, what's so confident in her...

I then told them " if you see Nicole , tell her she's a slut."

The girl " WHO ARE YOU?"

she should ask me " which Nicole you are talking about?" if she doesn't know me herself." And find the situation strange.

expression : " WHO ARE YOU?" -tone of voice suggest "What ARE YOU?" means  she's quiet SOMETHING

Then from such psychology I have known they are related to the Lacey Nicole I'm talking about. So I didn't answer her but tell her she assaulted me.

Then her girl friend said " well talk to police." Then I open the door of police station in Hindley st, and told them some of them had sent an inquiry, and I asked them "is Macker in?" I was answered he was on shift 11pm . And Macker was his nickname. Oh well, thanks all to Lacey's girlfreind!!

The second day I read this from news paper.

19 year-old Wei Li has been named as a suspect in his mother's murder, 41 year-old Emma Mei Tian.The body of Emma Mei Tian was found by a family friend inside the Lockwood Rd house at around 2.30 Tuesday afternoon.He flew to Melbourne on Saturday, hours after the murder took place and Superintendent Grant Moyle said an alert had been issued in case he tried to fly overseas."Phone calls were made as this person passed through the barriers about two minutes before midnight on the Tuesday night," Superintendent Moyle said. "Unfortunately those calls were not answered by those officers who'd left their numbers... This resulted in a delay and SAPOL receiving some information the following day, as in Wednesday," he said."Attempts were made by immigration authorities to contact officers within SAPOL, unfortunately that did not occur and that fault rests certainly with SAPOL."But deputy police commissioner Gary Burns  defended the officers. also see Vet training .


These teens are so confident  that on Wednesday they immediately called another victim's brother, when he talked this case to me.

Also see Texas Teenagers killed 7th Feb,2011.

I had another vision, police is chasing someone, they are young policeman, when they caught him they are beating him, trying to kill him. This is their new target currently. They chase at night , with torches.

Find out this Macker who's related to the girlfriend of Lacey Nicole Mosley in Hindley St police station, Adelaide, Wednesday night. This name is sent from an anonymous phone by the girlfriend of Lacey Nicole Mosley to the brother of hanged Mark last week.  And he holds information of more of them. And the boy had filled in a form in the station. Apparently this is a group of teenager criminal and killers controlled by teenager girls. Emetan is their chemical network. Emetan may be part of Premier Investment of Solomon.

Their leader is Lacey Nicole Mosley,who's the cheif of a project called Madison. The fashion megazine Madison is a focus of their project.That means the brands promoted in the megazine. This Madison is a sexual service provider, their target currently is EU country, centered in France, and their main goals including treasurers, finance servicers.  And the medicine they use is ETOS. More and More 108 Thangka Art and More Nicole's  Horse intelligence of Clever Hand.  Tonight in FA Picnic

In this case regarding with violence and killing, who's to be saved Lacey or Solomon.

Song of Songs of Solomon







Fly Leaf
Lacey Nicole "Moesly" Strum
and sad painting
( sadness -a fashion hard to pose, but may be painted like drug addictor)



For a few days, I have constantly receiving vision. They are so vivid , as it's from Jonah, my cat that had been killed.

A fully naked woman jumped into a spa , a man  lustfully pulled her close;

In a room , a woman raised her arse in a yoga pose, a weird porn;

A young girl took of her underwear pant, I'm not sure if it's a G string, but she looked very fair like corpse;

A girl with long curly hair, rushed out on the balcony with other girls, 3 of them, where they saw airplane took off. It's near the airport, among them a naked handsome boy. There's a bed inside room, they were on a sex party.

A man is frowning , scared of being striped off as naked truth. The first time he took his hat off on a face saving situation with blue cloth. But if anyone doesn't really mind it, I would like to strip them off a second time, as truelly naked truth . Why we have to be merciful over all these blood shelling selfishness, when trade advantage for sex pleasure, and try to gain favour with the same.- a Duck !

(trade of solomon)

As in the winter, they took away clothes from the poor, and loaded bullet in the gun. Now the girls still trying to show off "leniency" without taking our lives. She claimed herself a herbal to contribute more delicacies . Actually, they tried to behead John , and arranged Amadeus and Salieri , education in heated oil pot, where they tried to exhaust John with overloaded singing . Sutherland was killed a second time since her fall and left some legacy to Albury. But the warlord Elvis would save John.  Fuckers were lame.

Listen to the girl's voice for a second time, as I consciously stripe her off to avoid a third victim. A song that about herself as tearing virgin. Scared on, god knows how she's not scared off like a true virgin. She robbed clothes from John, a good tailor, with assistance of Rahim's machine gun and EWB .

A child laughting so heartedly, where this sad voice from ? - a crying virgin?  Let's just count honestly the blood in her hand, as naked truth.

It you would like me to seriously comment the music? An immitation from another singer's style, combined with clothes from a tailor brand, a fashionable sadness , bring you freshness. But you never get what it really is. All you do is like a watcher. You have a conscious the girl is somehow sad, but you cannot be really carried away, and it doesn't connect. You don't know what sadness it is. It's confusing.

Over brightened colour in C major showed kind of incoherent positiviness with sacrifice of lower b and a. People cannot hear a minor but over positively brighten C major with confusing sadness in the voice. Lyric as close as evil prophecy, however whole colour is obscurely brightened. Only freshness robbed from various elements remained.

Expression that's not within the music itself. That she sought fashionable sadness from outside the music, like T-stage cat-walker putting a street clothes to market a story to sell, rather than show the street story itself straight. A theme of darker nature really needs key in  f minor , - A flat major scheme. When we take off such 'sentimental clothes', I can sense a solemn theme. The ability to communicate between musician is such a secret, is exactly what a lying girl weeping about.

She had not learnt the song of songs. As it's not what boiling oil can burn.

But we have to add up one thing. She has good pitch, that's all. That we can learn. She has physical gift, but in the other hand, you can never tell a voice is excellence enough without sense. You can neither tell a certain type of voice alone is of first choice. Of course , non-sense are the common phenomenon to produce contemprary art ... we might have a laugh.

Haha, who said sadness is fashion, we will compose laughes, laughes of shallow gay. Who said virgin is the fashion, we will compose slut and womaniser. Who said god is the fashion, we will compose witch and rite.Fashion is simply something in our hand that does not need over marketing. Everything needs a good tailor. And anything can be the material. Don't get trapped again !


Conclusion:

Out of all plans , we should have enough prudence and self protection. Or the right information cannot delivered, but the wrong information was provided. We cannot use anyone that cannot stand firm, and vulnarable in whatever the way. One never has to be forced into sex in exchange for favour, as all reliable helps are never from desire but faith. There should never be any "imagination" of someone's true capacity of faith, neither should we demand anything that's not originally there.

The relationship between man and woman has never been as precious and faithful as true friendship. If there's nothing special, we'd better admit and not to trap each other. And the most important, do not lose the most faithful people around all the time. When it's over, admit the fact, and nature and quality, put it just where it is. It's never a precious relationship should be. If it's a timely clothes for life saving, then admit it, don't get trapped but let go as time pass by. Jonah has saved me with her blood. If troubled today, there will be tomorrow. The right position and lenience means teaching a child, but a child is no more than who really is. Never worried about deficiency without sexual favour, as it's never been an advantage.

Demand and manage 100% for  a must-be result. As far as full control cencerned, the one who's not suitable for a major position should go out. Or it's threatening and scary. I cannot use any personal imagination to put anyone else under security danger like Mcgurk (Michael) . I do that, as example to people, to wipe your eyes, so as for better protection. Please only forward false information to disqualified person.

At this time, we will realise how important is the real bond of friends, and how lucky it is to connect people of 100%. so boys, please do not feel sad about girls, keep something more precious, and trime yourself. As we should not worried about something without faith itself,- it cannot be asked. But we are to pull it through and come out.




The Holy Bible

The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast
 18 Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it to? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds perched in its branches.”
 20 Again he asked, “What shall I compare the kingdom of God to? 21 It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[a] of flour until it worked all through the dough.”

Ezekiel 23

Two Adulterous Sisters
 1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother. 3 They became prostitutes in Egypt, engaging in prostitution from their youth. In that land their breasts were fondled and their virgin bosoms caressed. 4 The older was named Oholah, and her sister was Oholibah. They were mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
 5 “Oholah engaged in prostitution while she was still mine; and she lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—warriors 6 clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all of them handsome young men, and mounted horsemen. 7 She gave herself as a prostitute to all the elite of the Assyrians and defiled herself with all the idols of everyone she lusted after. 8 She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt, when during her youth men slept with her, caressed her virgin bosom and poured out their lust on her.
 9 “Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, the Assyrians, for whom she lusted. 10 They stripped her naked, took away her sons and daughters and killed her with the sword. She became a byword among women, and punishment was inflicted on her.
 11 “Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet in her lust and prostitution she was more depraved than her sister. 12 She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors in full dress, mounted horsemen, all handsome young men. 13 I saw that she too defiled herself; both of them went the same way.
 14 “But she carried her prostitution still further. She saw men portrayed on a wall, figures of Chaldeans[a] portrayed in red, 15 with belts around their waists and flowing turbans on their heads; all of them looked like Babylonian chariot officers, natives of Chaldea.[b] 16 As soon as she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea. 17 Then the Babylonians came to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. After she had been defiled by them, she turned away from them in disgust. 18 When she carried on her prostitution openly and exposed her naked body, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had turned away from her sister. 19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. 21 So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled.[c]


Isaiah 57

1 The righteous perish,
   and no one takes it to heart;
the devout are taken away,
   and no one understands
that the righteous are taken away
   to be spared from evil.
2 Those who walk uprightly
   enter into peace;
   they find rest as they lie in death.
 3 “But you—come here, you children of a sorceress,
   you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes!
4 Who are you mocking?
   At whom do you sneer
   and stick out your tongue?
Are you not a brood of rebels,
   the offspring of liars?
5 You burn with lust among the oaks
   and under every spreading tree;
you sacrifice your children in the ravines
   and under the overhanging crags.
6 The idols among the smooth stones of the ravines are your portion;
   indeed, they are your lot.
Yes, to them you have poured out drink offerings
   and offered grain offerings.
   In view of all this, should I relent?
7 You have made your bed on a high and lofty hill;
   there you went up to offer your sacrifices.
8 Behind your doors and your doorposts
   you have put your pagan symbols.
Forsaking me, you uncovered your bed,
   you climbed into it and opened it wide;
you made a pact with those whose beds you love,
   and you looked with lust on their naked bodies.
9 You went to Molek[a] with olive oil
   and increased your perfumes.
You sent your ambassadors[b] far away;
   you descended to the very realm of the dead!
10 You wearied yourself by such going about,
   but you would not say, ‘It is hopeless.’
You found renewal of your strength,
   and so you did not faint.
 11 “Whom have you so dreaded and feared
   that you have not been true to me,
and have neither remembered me
   nor taken this to heart?
Is it not because I have long been silent
   that you do not fear me?
12 I will expose your righteousness and your works,
   and they will not benefit you.
13 When you cry out for help,
   let your collection of idols save you!
The wind will carry all of them off,
   a mere breath will blow them away.
But whoever takes refuge in me
   will inherit the land
   and possess my holy mountain.”

Comfort for the Contrite
 14 And it will be said:
   “Build up, build up, prepare the road!
   Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.”
15 For this is what the high and exalted One says—
   he who lives forever, whose name is holy:
“I live in a high and holy place,
   but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit,
to revive the spirit of the lowly
   and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 I will not accuse them forever,
   nor will I always be angry,
for then they would faint away because of me—
   the very people I have created.
17 I was enraged by their sinful greed;
   I punished them, and hid my face in anger,
   yet they kept on in their willful ways.
18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal them;
   I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel’s mourners,
 19 creating praise on their lips.
Peace, peace, to those far and near,”
   says the LORD. “And I will heal them.”
20 But the wicked are like the tossing sea,
   which cannot rest,
   whose waves cast up mire and mud.
21 “There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”


Proverbs 25

More Proverbs of Solomon
1These are more proverbs of Solomon, copied by the men of Hezekiah king of Judah:
2It is the glory of God to conceal a matter;
to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
3As the heavens are high and the earth is deep,
so the hearts of kings are unsearchable.
4Remove the dross from the silver,
and out comes material fora the silversmith;
5remove the wicked from the king’s presence,
and his throne will be established through righteousness.
6Do not exalt yourself in the king’s presence,
and do not claim a place among great men;
7it is better for him to say to you, “Come up here,”
than for him to humiliate you before a nobleman.
What you have seen with your eyes
8do not bringb hastily to court,
for what will you do in the end
if your neighbor puts you to shame?
9If you argue your case with a neighbor,
do not betray another man’s confidence,
10or he who hears it may shame you
and you will never lose your bad reputation.
11A word aptly spoken
is like apples of gold in settings of silver.
12Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold
is a wise man’s rebuke to a listening ear.
13Like the coolness of snow at harvest time
is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him;
he refreshes the spirit of his masters.
14Like clouds and wind without rain
is a man who boasts of gifts he does not give.
15Through patience a ruler can be persuaded,
and a gentle tongue can break a bone.
16If you find honey, eat just enough—
too much of it, and you will vomit.
17Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house—
too much of you, and he will hate you.
18Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow
is the man who gives false testimony against his neighbor.
19Like a bad tooth or a lame foot
is reliance on the unfaithful in times of trouble.
20Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day,
or like vinegar poured on soda,
is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head,
and the Lord will reward you.
23As a north wind brings rain,
so a sly tongue brings angry looks.
24Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.
25Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.
26Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
is a righteous man who gives way to the wicked.
27It is not good to eat too much honey,
nor is it honorable to seek one’s own honor.
28Like a city whose walls are broken down
is a man who lacks self-control.

Proverbs 26

 1 Like snow in summer or rain in harvest,
   honor is not fitting for a fool.
2 Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
   an undeserved curse does not come to rest.
3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
   and a rod for the backs of fools!
4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
   or you yourself will be just like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
   or he will be wise in his own eyes.
6 Sending a message by the hands of a fool
   is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.
7 Like the useless legs of one who is lame
   is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
8 Like tying a stone in a sling
   is the giving of honor to a fool.
9 Like a thornbush in a drunkard’s hand
   is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
10 Like an archer who wounds at random
   is one who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit,
   so fools repeat their folly.
12 Do you see a person wise in their own eyes?
   There is more hope for a fool than for them.
 13 A sluggard says, “There’s a lion in the road,
   a fierce lion roaming the streets!”
14 As a door turns on its hinges,
   so a sluggard turns on his bed.
15 A sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
   he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
16 A sluggard is wiser in his own eyes
   than seven people who answer discreetly.
 17 Like one who grabs a stray dog by the ears
   is someone who rushes into a quarrel not their own.
 18 Like a maniac shooting
   flaming arrows of death
19 is one who deceives their neighbor
   and says, “I was only joking!”
 20 Without wood a fire goes out;
   without a gossip a quarrel dies down.
21 As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire,
   so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.
22 The words of a gossip are like choice morsels;
   they go down to the inmost parts.
 23 Like a coating of silver dross on earthenware
   are fervent[a] lips with an evil heart.
24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips,
   but in their hearts they harbor deceit.
25 Though their speech is charming, do not believe them,
   for seven abominations fill their hearts.
26 Their malice may be concealed by deception,
   but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
27 Whoever digs a pit will fall into it;
   if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them.
28 A lying tongue hates those it hurts,
   and a flattering mouth works ruin.



Song of Solomon 1

 1 Solomon’s Song of Songs.
   She[a]
 2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—
   for your love is more delightful than wine.
3 Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes;
   your name is like perfume poured out.
   No wonder the young women love you!
4 Take me away with you—let us hurry!
   Let the king bring me into his chambers.
   Friends
   We rejoice and delight in you[b];
   we will praise your love more than wine.
   She
   How right they are to adore you!
 5 Dark am I, yet lovely,
   daughters of Jerusalem,
dark like the tents of Kedar,
   like the tent curtains of Solomon.[c]
6 Do not stare at me because I am dark,
   because I am darkened by the sun.
My mother’s sons were angry with me
   and made me take care of the vineyards;
   my own vineyard I had to neglect.
7 Tell me, you whom I love,
   where you graze your flock
   and where you rest your sheep at midday.
Why should I be like a veiled woman
   beside the flocks of your friends?
   Friends
 8 If you do not know, most beautiful of women,
   follow the tracks of the sheep
and graze your young goats
   by the tents of the shepherds.
   He
 9 I liken you, my darling, to a mare
   among Pharaoh’s chariot horses.
10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings,
   your neck with strings of jewels.
11 We will make you earrings of gold,
   studded with silver.
   She
 12 While the king was at his table,
   my perfume spread its fragrance.
13 My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh
   resting between my breasts.
14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms
   from the vineyards of En Gedi.
   He
 15 How beautiful you are, my darling!
   Oh, how beautiful!
   Your eyes are doves.
   She
 16 How handsome you are, my beloved!
   Oh, how charming!
   And our bed is verdant.
   He
 17 The beams of our house are cedars;
   our rafters are firs.

Song of Solomon 2

   She[a]
 1 I am a rose[b] of Sharon,
   a lily of the valleys.
   He
 2 Like a lily among thorns
   is my darling among the young women.
   She
 3 Like an apple[c] tree among the trees of the forest
   is my beloved among the young men.
I delight to sit in his shade,
   and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
4 Let him lead me to the banquet hall,
   and let his banner over me be love.
5 Strengthen me with raisins,
   refresh me with apples,
   for I am faint with love.
6 His left arm is under my head,
   and his right arm embraces me.
7 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you
   by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
   until it so desires.
 8 Listen! My beloved!
   Look! Here he comes,
leaping across the mountains,
   bounding over the hills.
9 My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag.
   Look! There he stands behind our wall,
gazing through the windows,
   peering through the lattice.
10 My beloved spoke and said to me,
   “Arise, my darling,
   my beautiful one, come with me.
11 See! The winter is past;
   the rains are over and gone.
12 Flowers appear on the earth;
   the season of singing has come,
the cooing of doves
   is heard in our land.
13 The fig tree forms its early fruit;
   the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.
Arise, come, my darling;
   my beautiful one, come with me.”
   He
 14 My dove in the clefts of the rock,
   in the hiding places on the mountainside,
show me your face,
   let me hear your voice;
for your voice is sweet,
   and your face is lovely.
15 Catch for us the foxes,
   the little foxes
that ruin the vineyards,
   our vineyards that are in bloom.
   She
 16 My beloved is mine and I am his;
   he browses among the lilies.
17 Until the day breaks
   and the shadows flee,
turn, my beloved,
   and be like a gazelle
or like a young stag
   on the rugged hills.[d]

Song of Solomon 3

 1 All night long on my bed
   I looked for the one my heart loves;
   I looked for him but did not find him.
2 I will get up now and go about the city,
   through its streets and squares;
I will search for the one my heart loves.
   So I looked for him but did not find him.
3 The watchmen found me
   as they made their rounds in the city.
   “Have you seen the one my heart loves?”
4 Scarcely had I passed them
   when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go
   till I had brought him to my mother’s house,
   to the room of the one who conceived me.
5 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you
   by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
   until it so desires.
 6 Who is this coming up from the wilderness
   like a column of smoke,
perfumed with myrrh and incense
   made from all the spices of the merchant?
7 Look! It is Solomon’s carriage,
   escorted by sixty warriors,
   the noblest of Israel,
8 all of them wearing the sword,
   all experienced in battle,
each with his sword at his side,
   prepared for the terrors of the night.
9 King Solomon made for himself the carriage;
   he made it of wood from Lebanon.
10 Its posts he made of silver,
   its base of gold.
Its seat was upholstered with purple,
   its interior inlaid with love.
Daughters of Jerusalem, 11 come out,
   and look, you daughters of Zion.
Look[a] on King Solomon wearing a crown,
   the crown with which his mother crowned him
on the day of his wedding,
   the day his heart rejoiced.

Song of Solomon 4

   He
 1 How beautiful you are, my darling!
   Oh, how beautiful!
   Your eyes behind your veil are doves.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
   descending from the hills of Gilead.
2 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn,
   coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin;
   not one of them is alone.
3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
   your mouth is lovely.
Your temples behind your veil
   are like the halves of a pomegranate.
4 Your neck is like the tower of David,
   built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,
   all of them shields of warriors.
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
   like twin fawns of a gazelle
   that browse among the lilies.
6 Until the day breaks
   and the shadows flee,
I will go to the mountain of myrrh
   and to the hill of incense.
7 You are altogether beautiful, my darling;
   there is no flaw in you.
 8 Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,
   come with me from Lebanon.
Descend from the crest of Amana,
   from the top of Senir, the summit of Hermon,
from the lions’ dens
   and the mountain haunts of leopards.
9 You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;
   you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
   with one jewel of your necklace.
10 How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
   How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume
   more than any spice!
11 Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
   milk and honey are under your tongue.
The fragrance of your garments
   is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
12 You are a garden locked up, my sister, my bride;
   you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.
13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates
   with choice fruits,
   with henna and nard,
 14 nard and saffron,
   calamus and cinnamon,
   with every kind of incense tree,
   with myrrh and aloes
   and all the finest spices.
15 You are[b] a garden fountain,
   a well of flowing water
   streaming down from Lebanon.
   She
 16 Awake, north wind,
   and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,
   that its fragrance may spread everywhere.
Let my beloved come into his garden
   and taste its choice fruits.

Song of Solomon 5

   He
 1 I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride;
   I have gathered my myrrh with my spice.
I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey;
   I have drunk my wine and my milk.
   Friends
   Eat, friends, and drink;
   drink your fill of love.
   She
 2 I slept but my heart was awake.
   Listen! My beloved is knocking:
“Open to me, my sister, my darling,
   my dove, my flawless one.
My head is drenched with dew,
   my hair with the dampness of the night.”
3 I have taken off my robe—
   must I put it on again?
I have washed my feet—
   must I soil them again?
4 My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening;
   my heart began to pound for him.
5 I arose to open for my beloved,
   and my hands dripped with myrrh,
my fingers with flowing myrrh,
   on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened for my beloved,
   but my beloved had left; he was gone.
   My heart sank at his departure.[a]
I looked for him but did not find him.
   I called him but he did not answer.
7 The watchmen found me
   as they made their rounds in the city.
They beat me, they bruised me;
   they took away my cloak,
   those watchmen of the walls!
8 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you—
   if you find my beloved,
what will you tell him?
   Tell him I am faint with love.
   Friends
 9 How is your beloved better than others,
   most beautiful of women?
How is your beloved better than others,
   that you so charge us?
   She
 10 My beloved is radiant and ruddy,
   outstanding among ten thousand.
11 His head is purest gold;
   his hair is wavy
   and black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves
   by the water streams,
washed in milk,
   mounted like jewels.
13 His cheeks are like beds of spice
   yielding perfume.
His lips are like lilies
   dripping with myrrh.
14 His arms are rods of gold
   set with topaz.
His body is like polished ivory
   decorated with lapis lazuli.
15 His legs are pillars of marble
   set on bases of pure gold.
His appearance is like Lebanon,
   choice as its cedars.
16 His mouth is sweetness itself;
   he is altogether lovely.
This is my beloved, this is my friend,
   daughters of Jerusalem.

Song of Solomon 6

   Friends
 1 Where has your beloved gone,
   most beautiful of women?
Which way did your beloved turn,
   that we may look for him with you?
   She
 2 My beloved has gone down to his garden,
   to the beds of spices,
to browse in the gardens
   and to gather lilies.
3 I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine;
   he browses among the lilies.
   He
 4 You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,
   as lovely as Jerusalem,
   as majestic as troops with banners.
5 Turn your eyes from me;
   they overwhelm me.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
   descending from Gilead.
6 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep
   coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin,
   not one of them is missing.
7 Your temples behind your veil
   are like the halves of a pomegranate.
8 Sixty queens there may be,
   and eighty concubines,
   and virgins beyond number;
9 but my dove, my perfect one, is unique,
   the only daughter of her mother,
   the favorite of the one who bore her.
The young women saw her and called her blessed;
   the queens and concubines praised her.
   Friends
 10 Who is this that appears like the dawn,
   fair as the moon, bright as the sun,
   majestic as the stars in procession?
   He
 11 I went down to the grove of nut trees
   to look at the new growth in the valley,
to see if the vines had budded
   or the pomegranates were in bloom.
12 Before I realized it,
   my desire set me among the royal chariots of my people.[a]
   Friends
 13 Come back, come back, O Shulammite;
   come back, come back, that we may gaze on you!
   He
   Why would you gaze on the Shulammite
   as on the dance of Mahanaim?[b]

Song of Solomon 7

 1 [a]How beautiful your sandaled feet,
   O prince’s daughter!
Your graceful legs are like jewels,
   the work of an artist’s hands.
2 Your navel is a rounded goblet
   that never lacks blended wine.
Your waist is a mound of wheat
   encircled by lilies.
3 Your breasts are like two fawns,
   like twin fawns of a gazelle.
4 Your neck is like an ivory tower.
Your eyes are the pools of Heshbon
   by the gate of Bath Rabbim.
Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon
   looking toward Damascus.
5 Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel.
   Your hair is like royal tapestry;
   the king is held captive by its tresses.
6 How beautiful you are and how pleasing,
   my love, with your delights!
7 Your stature is like that of the palm,
   and your breasts like clusters of fruit.
8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree;
   I will take hold of its fruit.”
May your breasts be like clusters of grapes on the vine,
   the fragrance of your breath like apples,
 9 and your mouth like the best wine.
   She
   May the wine go straight to my beloved,
   flowing gently over lips and teeth.[b]
10 I belong to my beloved,
   and his desire is for me.
11 Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside,
   let us spend the night in the villages.[c]
12 Let us go early to the vineyards
   to see if the vines have budded,
if their blossoms have opened,
   and if the pomegranates are in bloom—
   there I will give you my love.
13 The mandrakes send out their fragrance,
   and at our door is every delicacy,
both new and old,
   that I have stored up for you, my beloved.

Song of Solomon 8

 1 If only you were to me like a brother,
   who was nursed at my mother’s breasts!
Then, if I found you outside,
   I would kiss you,
   and no one would despise me.
2 I would lead you
   and bring you to my mother’s house—
   she who has taught me.
I would give you spiced wine to drink,
   the nectar of my pomegranates.
3 His left arm is under my head
   and his right arm embraces me.
4 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you:
   Do not arouse or awaken love
   until it so desires.
   Friends
 5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness
   leaning on her beloved?
   She
   Under the apple tree I roused you;
   there your mother conceived you,
   there she who was in labor gave you birth.
6 Place me like a seal over your heart,
   like a seal on your arm;
for love is as strong as death,
   its jealousy[a] unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire,
   like a mighty flame.[b]
7 Many waters cannot quench love;
   rivers cannot sweep it away.
If one were to give
   all the wealth of one’s house for love,
   it[c] would be utterly scorned.
   Friends
 8 We have a little sister,
   and her breasts are not yet grown.
What shall we do for our sister
   on the day she is spoken for?
9 If she is a wall,
   we will build towers of silver on her.
If she is a door,
   we will enclose her with panels of cedar.
   She
 10 I am a wall,
   and my breasts are like towers.
Thus I have become in his eyes
   like one bringing contentment.
11 Solomon had a vineyard in Baal Hamon;
   he let out his vineyard to tenants.
Each was to bring for its fruit
   a thousand shekels[d] of silver.
12 But my own vineyard is mine to give;
   the thousand shekels are for you, Solomon,
   and two hundred[e] are for those who tend its fruit.
   He
 13 You who dwell in the gardens
   with friends in attendance,
   let me hear your voice!
   She
 14 Come away, my beloved,
   and be like a gazelle
or like a young stag
   on the spice-laden mountains.

The Conclusion of the Matter
 9 Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs. 10 The Teacher searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true.
 11 The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one shepherd.[b] 12 Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them.
   Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body.
 13 Now all has been heard;
   here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God and keep his commandments,
   for this is the duty of all mankind.
14 For God will bring every deed into judgment,
   including every hidden thing,
   whether it is good or evil.
