Thy soul

The rabble among them [who followed Israel from Egypt] had greedy desires [for familiar and delicious food], and the Israelites wept again and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?

And in their hearts they put God to the test
By asking for food according to their [selfish] appetite.

But lusted intensely in the wilderness
And tempted God [with their insistent desires] in the desert.

Now these things [the warnings and admonitions] took place as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did.

You are jealous and covet [what others have] and your lust goes unfulfilled; so you murder. You are envious and cannot obtain [the object of your envy]; so you fight and battle. You do not have because you do not ask [it of God].

For all that is in the world—the lust and sensual craving of the flesh and the lust and longing of the eyes and the boastful pride of life [pretentious confidence in one’s resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father, but are from the world.

Departed

But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own all the things you have prepared?’

But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things [all the comforts and delights], and Lazarus likewise bad things [all the discomforts and distresses]; but now he is comforted here [in paradise], while you are in severe agony.
