Proverbs 24:25 New Living Translation (NLT)

25 But it will go well for those who convict the guilty;
    rich blessings will be showered on them.

 

Romans 11:9 New Living Translation (NLT)

9 Likewise, David said,

“Let their bountiful table become a snare,
    a trap that makes them think all is well.
Let their blessings cause them to stumble,
    and let them get what they deserve.

 

Land of plenty ... land of waste

All in faith arise now

There is so much ... for few to touch

So just sit back and wait now

Well deserved ... and not unnerved

All will get by somehow now

Yes our greed ... and endless need

We carry on our face now

 

What is right ... a daily plight

There is no tomorrow

Just my cares ... am I to bear

In this land of sorrow

It is me ... and my own I see

That is why I borrow

All you own ... including home

To waste on self in horror
