Name of Nimrod

Read:  Psalm 79 / Proverbs 11 / Genesis 10 / Luke 13 

 

Psalm 79:9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.

Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

Genesis 10:8,10 Nimrod… began to be a mighty one in the earth… And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel.

Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. 

 

The name of Nimrod was renowned,

And yet it really didn’t matter. 

Though he, in Babel, would be crowned,

His legacy, like chaff, would scatter. 

 

Yet he is wise who wins a soul

As an ambassador God sent. 

Let us be mindful of this goal

And plead with sinners to repent.
