AL TIRA YISRAEL
Shimi Tavori
FEAR NOT, ISRAEL
Blessed is Jacob because of Esau,
his uncle Lavan carried his feet.
He saw there mountains like sheep and deer,
for he is a simple man, dwelling of God.
Fear not, Israel, fear not
for a lion cub you are
and a lion if it roars - who will not fear
who will not fear.
He served seven years for Rachel
every morning he said to her, where are your doves
but woe to him in the morning for it was Leah
Lavan said to Jacob, this is the firstborn.
Fear not...
But what happened to the chosen of God
and then he renewed his days like the ancient in Israel
and how he unsheathed his sword in the name of God
he struck many nations, this is the simple, this is the simple.
Fear not...
