Eliab

Mankind has not changed at all!
And these acts of wars are for us all;
But blessed are those who keep the laws.

Eliab, come and let us teach the people how to love one another;
For their swords had made women childless.
Eliab, come and let us change the people from hate;
For their swords had made women childless.
Their rebellion is as witchcraft!
But how many people are they ready to kill in the Valley of Elah?
