Part 2: Love Poem , My love torments my Heart

Sumerian love poem of 3000 BCE Lady's response.
   My   love torments my Heart with his voice
  He causes anxiety in me
    He is neighbor next to my Mother's house
     I cannot be with him
       My mother is right telling him
         stop trying to see Her
           It pains my heart to think of Him
             I feel possessed by love of him
               Really,He is a foolish one
                 but I am like Him
                   He knows not my desire to hold Him
                   Then He would tell my mother
                 Then I would be promised to you
                By the precious bond of women
              Father and Mother will rejoice
            My people will praise you
           They will praise you
          My Love
                                                                  This is the 2nd stanza of the Love Poem of    circa 3000 BCE

Semitic Parallelism Poetry # 2

Why are the Nations agitated And the people muttering hollow words? The leaders of the earth have taken their stand  And high officals gather together Against YHWH and against his anointed one Let us break free of Gods laws And throw off his decrees The one enthroned in heaven,will laugh at them YHWH will ridicule them At that time he will speak to the rulers of earth in his anger And terrify them in  his burning anger I myself have installed my KING Over the earth Let me proclaim the decree of YHWH..................The newly installed King is speaking now He said to me :You are my son;today I have become your Father Ask of me and I will give you nations as your inheritance  and the ends of the earth as your possession You will break the nations with an iron rod and you will shash theem like a piece of pottery And now you rulers ....show wisdom accept correction....you judges of the earth Serve YHWH with fear an...
