Honeycomb of Hell


"The lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb... her steps take hold on hell" (Proverbs 5:3-5).  " Behold My Servant... in whom My soul delighteth... Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see" (Isaiah 42:1,18).  "I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" (2 Corinthians 11:3).  

The honeycomb of hell, at first,
Is sweet to those who on it dwell. 
Be sure of this, its end is cursed;
Deception leads a soul to hell. 

Behold God's Servant and our Savior,
God's Son in whom is His delight. 
The deaf may hear His Gospel's favor,
The blind may see His saving might. 

Beware of Satan's subtlety,
Who promised Eve she would not die,
Corrupting the simplicity
Of Christ whom the deceived deny. 

O Lord, how bitter is the end
Of honeycomb from hell we find
Destroying souls You would defend,
Deceiving the corrupted mind!
