The sonnet warns that opposing Israel is tantamount to challenging God Himself, portraying Israel as divinely favored and invincible. Described as “the apple of God’s eye,” Israel is depicted as a nation protected by a sacred covenant and God’s unyielding power. Despite their enemies’ aggression, Israel emerges triumphant, their victories divinely ordained and enduring. The poem concludes with a call for nations to recognize Israel’s glory and bow before their unstoppable, God-backed strength.

Be at war with Israel, foes beware,
For they stand firm beneath a holy shield,
The apple of God’s eye is Israel’s prayer,
At war with God, His might shall never yield.
Their banners rise where enemies once trod,
A nation crowned with triumph’s radiant gleam,
Upheld by promises of Jacob’s God,
Their victories flow like an endless stream.
The proud assail, yet crumble in their fight,
For divine hands their battles oversee,
Through storm and fire, Israel’s star burns bright,
A testament to strength eternally.
So let the nations bow in awe and see,
God’s chosen reign in glorious victory.
