So this man
Has done you wrong
Does this vengence
To you belong

That crooked man
Has crossed your path
Does that justify
Your grieveous wrath

This woman is
A wicked thief
Does that mean
You can cause her grief

Your next door neighbor
Beats his wife
Does that give you the right
To take his life

These three men
Murder and maim
Does that allow you
To cause them pain

This man is your enemy
Or so you say
Does this mean
For him you'll pray

You say this woman
Has stolen from you
Look within before judging
Is your heart true

You say this man
Spared not the rod
But is it the Right path
On which you trod

You say these men
Are filled with hate
Take a hard look
Is your life straight

These words are sharp
Just like a sword
"Vengence is Mine"
Sayeth the Lord


The following are the verses I took this from.
Deuteronomy 32:35
Proverbs 20:22
Proverbs 24:29
Luke 6:27-38
Matthew 5:43-48
Hebrews 10:30

And that day of vengeance is in His heart. God loves righteous judgment, and the judgment to render to those who break God's laws are written. However, we are not a people that knows God is real (yet) so I would just try to warn those who do wrong - this is a duty of a servant of God. :smile:

That's why I just sit back and say, God will take care of them for me...He knows what is right and what they've done. It is not for me to judge or question why. That was a very good write sweetie.

With God all things are possible...


Give this one a try

Psalm 118:8 It is better to place your faith in God than trust in man...


Words to live by.

Jason that wasn't meant as a dig just my thoughts and ramblings.
