Why I am not Jareb, Why I am not Ephraim, Why I am not Abaddon, Why I am not Nebuchadnezzar

I am not Jareb because my goal is not

To encamp around Israel.

I do not intend to destroy it

Or sack it.

I intend it to repent.

I am not Ephraim because I am not

In league with Jareb.

I do not have a deal with him

And I am not a king over Israel.

I am not Abaddon

Because I have wisdom

I have knowledge

I am not cruel,

I can be satisfied,

And I am not strong.

I am not Nebuchadnezzar

Because I am not taking vengeance

On the nations for their treatment of Israel

And their treatment of good men.

I am not intent on destroying every criminal.
