Gevurah of Netzach: the Discipline aspect of Boldness
Psalm 1: 1 - 6
Blessed are people
who walk not in the council of the wicked
nor stand in the way of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
but their delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law they meditate day and night.
They are like trees
planted by streams of water
that yield their fruit in its season
and its leaf does not wither.
in all that they do, they prosper.
The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away
Therefore the wicked
will not stand in the judgement,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
for the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
Suggestion
Reflect on Gevurah of Netzach: the Discipline aspect of Boldness.
The following is a rewriting of Psalm 1:1 - 6 in the light of the Discipline of Boldness
Blessed are people
whose feet are not guided by craving
or lead by delusions
or blocked by inner voices that mock;
but their joy is to seek God,
to seek Divine Power and be moved beyond the scoffers.
They are like trees
planted by streams of water
that offer their fruit in their season
and their leaves do not wither.
In all they do,
in all circumstances,
they ultimately grow closer to God.
Those who surrender to craving move away, for now;
and instead are scattered by gusts,
distracted by each tiny temptation.
Those blown to and fro
can not yet show up for the truth
can not yet stand its heat;
for God knows the tumult and glories of the Way
and the vanishing of what is not.

“Flee like a bird to your mountain,
for behold, the wicked bend the bow;
they have fitted their arrow to the string
to shoot in the dark
at the upright in heart;
if the foundations are destroyed,
What can the righteous do?”
The LORD is in his holy temple;
the LORD’s throne is in heaven;
his eyes see,
his eyelids test the children of man.
the LORD tests the righteous,
but his soul hates the wicked
and the one who loves violence.
Let him rain coals on the wicked;
fire and sulfur and a scorching wind
shall be the portion of their cup.

He loves righteous deeds;
The upright shall behold his face.

and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
in whose eyes a vile person is despised,

and night to night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out through all the earth,

which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,

rejoicing the heart;

enlightening the eyes;
the fear of the LORD is clean,
enduring forever;

and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey
and drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them is your servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
Who can discern his errors?
Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have dominion over me!

and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
My soul clings to you;
your right hand upholds me.
But those who seek to destroy my life
shall go down into the depths of the earth;
they shall be given over to the power of the sword;
they shall be a portion for jackals.
But the king shall rejoice in God;
all who swear by him shall exult,
for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

Psalm 78: 1 – 16
Give ear, O my people,
to my teaching;
incline your ears to the words of my mouth!
I will open my mouth in a parable;
I will utter dark sayings from of old,
things that we have heard and known,
that our fathers have told us.
We will not hide them from their children,
but tell to the coming generations
the glorious deeds of the LORD,
and his might
and the wonders that he has done.
He established a testimony in Jacob
and appointed a law in Israel,
which he commanded our fathers
to teach to their children,
that the next generation
might know them
the children yet unborn,
and arise and tell them to their children,
so that they should set their hope in God
and not forget the works of God,
but keep his commandments;
and that they should not be like their fathers,
a stubborn and rebellious generation,
a generation whose heart was not steadfast,
whose spirit was not faithful to God.
The Ephraimites, armed with the bow,
turned back on the day of battle.
They did not keep God’s covenant,
but refused to walk according to his law.
They forgot his works
and the wonders that he had shown them.
In the sight of their fathers
he performed wonders
In the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zoan.
He divided the sea and let them pass through it,
and made the waters stand like a heap.
In the daytime he led them with a cloud,
and all the night with a fiery light.
He split rocks in the wilderness
and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.
He made streams come out of the rock
and caused waters to flow down like rivers.

Psalm 78: 15 – 31
He split rocks in the wilderness
and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.
He made streams come out of the rock
and caused waters to flow down like rivers.
Yet they sinned still more against him,
rebelling against the Most High in the desert.
They tested God in their heart
by demanding the food they craved.
They spoke against God, saying,
“Can God spread a table in the wilderness?”
He struck the rock so that water gushed out
and streams overflowed.
Can he also give bread or provide meat for his people?
Therefore, when the LORD heard, he was full of wrath;
a fire was kindled against Jacob;
his anger rose against Israel,
because they did not believe in God
and did not trust his saving power.
Yet he commanded the skies above
and opened the doors of heaven,
and he rained down on them manna to eat
and gave them the grain of heaven.
Man ate of the bread of the angels;
he sent them food in abundance.
He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens,
and by his power he led out the south wind;
he rained meat on them like dust,
winged birds like the sand of the seas;
he let them fall in the midst of their camp,
all around their dwellings.
And they ate and were well filled,
for he gave them what they craved.
But before they had satisfied their craving,
while the food was still in their mouths,
the anger of God rose against them,
and he killed the strongest of them
and laid low the young men of Israel.

So he made their days vanish like a breath,
and their years in terror.
When he killed them,
they sought him;
they repented
and sought God earnestly.
They remembered that God was their rock,
the Most High God their redeemer.
but they flattered him with their mouths;
they lied to him with their tongues.
Their heart was not steadfast toward him;
they were not faithful to his covenant.
Yet he, being compassionate,
atoned for their iniquity
and did not destroy them;
he restrained his anger often
and did not stir up all his wrath.
He remembered that they were but flesh,
a wind that passes and comes not again.

The following is a reworking of Pslam 78: 32-39
In spite of all the evidence
of God’s love,
they still disbelieved;
despite wonders,
remained unconvinced.
So their days
vanished like a breath,
and their years in fear,
killed,
and in each new
excruciating death…
(of hope,
wealth,
romantic love,
death of dreams
of freedom,
of justice)
they sought him,
re-turned
to seek
with all their heart.
In turning,
they remembered
God was Rock,
Water,
Bread,
Victor,
their sanctuary,
adventure,
the Most High God
true love.
Yet again,
with time,
and new-blossom attachments
humility fled…
flattery,
fancy words and lies
proliferated,
hearts not dissolved
into God,
into the Mystical Body,
into One
into Divine Child;
not faithful to the Will.
Yet he,
being compassionate,
did not
allow the destroyer
full access,
restrained
inevitable consequences
did not permit
the unleash
of waters to drown
fire to consume
stone to bludgeon
airs to smother
but allowed each
to remember
that they were human,
winds that blow
and perhaps
never ever come again.

Hod of Hod: the Yielding aspect of Yielding
Psalm 78: 40 – 55
How often they rebelled against him
in the wilderness
and grieved him
in the desert~
They tested God again and again
and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
They did not remember his power
or the day when he redeemed them from the foe
when he performed his signs in Egypt
and his marvels in the fields of Zoan.
He turned their rivers to blood,
so that they could not drink of their streams.
He sent among them
swarms of flies,
which devoured them,
And frogs
which destroyed them.
He gave their crops
to the destroying locust
and the fruit of their labor
to the locust.
He destroyed their vines
with hail
and their sycamores
with frost.
He gave over their cattle
to the hail
and their flocks
to thunderbolts.
He let loose on them
his burning anger, wrath, indignation, and distress,
a company of destroying angels.
He made a path for his anger;
he did not spare them from death
but gave their lives over to the plague.

Psalm 78: 56 – 72
Yet they tested and rebelled against the Most High God
and did not keep his testimonies
but turned away and acted treacherously like their fathers;
they twisted like a deceitful bow.
for they provoked him to anger with their high places;
they moved him to jealousy with their idols.
When God heard, he was full of wrath,
and he utterly rejected Israel.
He forsook his dwelling at Shiloh,
the tent where he dwelt among mankind,
and delivered his power to captivity,
his glory to the hand of the foe.
He gave his people over to the sword
and vented his wrath on his heritage.
Fire devoured their young men,
and their young women had no marriage song.
Their priests fell by the sword,
and their widows made no lamentation.
Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,
like a strong man shouting because of wine.
And he put his adversaries to rout;
he put them to everlasting shame.
He rejected the tent of Joseph;
he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
but he chose the tribe of Judah,
Mount Zion, which he loves.
He built his sanctuary like the high heavens,
like the earth which he has founded forever.
He chose David his servant
and took him from the sheepfolds;
from following the nursing ewes he brought him
to shepherd Jacob his people,
Israel his inheritance.
With upright heart he shepherded them
and guided them with his skillful hand.

until a pit is dug for the wicked.
For the LORD will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
for justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.
Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
If the LORD had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.
When I thought, “my foot slips,”
your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.
When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.
Can wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who frame injustice by statute?
They band together against the life of the righteous
and condemn the innocent to death.
But the LORD has become my stronghold,

and wipe them out for their wickedness;

Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you preserve my life;
you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
and your right hand delivers me.
The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O LORD,
endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands.
