Chesed
Chesed (חסד, also Romanized khesed, ẖesed) is a Hebrew word commonly translated as "loving-kindness," "kindness" or "love." Chesed is central to Jewish ethics and Jewish theology and is a common term in the Bible for describing God’s love for humankind and God’s special relationship with the Children of Israel.
Chesed is valued by religious Jews of all denominations. It is considered a virtue on its own, and also for its contribution to tikkun olam (repairing the world). It is also considered the foundation of many religious commandments practiced by traditional Jews, especially interpersonal commandments. Chesed is the basis for a wide variety of Jewish communal institutions.
Chesed is also one of the ten Sephirot on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. It is given the association of kindness and love, and is the first of the emotive attributes of the sephirot.

"Loving-kindness" is also often used as an English translation of chesed, originating with the Coverdale Bible of 1535. Although some consider it to be a somewhat archaic translation, it remains one of the most common translations. "Love" is often used as a shorter English translation.Daniel Elazar has suggested the translation of "covenant-love." "Grace" and "compassion" are also occasionally used as translations of chesed.

Woman's World (Gurlz Stand Up)
by: SHYSTIEBoy sit down, stand up girls
Ladies we can run this world
Come on take a stand,
we got the whole wide world in our hands
Now imagine if this whole globe was run by jus women
Jeeze cor blimme what a world we would live in
Getting men all hung upon our love until they be sprung
Imagine men on page three posing nude in the sun
AND--- Imagine ladies pimping these guys
Getting them to sell there bodies on the streets at night
Think, we can choose a man then we treat them bad
Get what we want and need then we ditch them Lads---
Call them to attend to our needs
Get a web cam set up so my friends can see
Then make him pole dance on my bed post then expose him
And put his pictures on the net so everybody knows him
Imagine them with stush attitudes
or the had a shy mood so we make the first move
But we use them for ah one night flex
Sayin don't get attached baby boy its just sex
Imagine the first prints on the moon was ah five
And all the world leaders had a trimmed bikini lines
Open your eyes visualise
Picture ah world run by ah female like shy
A female like WHO, a female like You and a female like I
A female like WHO, a female like You and a female like shy
Boys sit down, stand up girls, ladies we can run this world
Come on take a stand, we got the whole wide world in our hands
Now what if let these men live in kennels like dogs
And we only let them out to do the difficult jobs
Its deep, walk them on the streets and leads are on their necks
And I show him to my friends saying he's my new pet
AND--- think if we went Amsterdam
And the red light district was only full of man
Posing nude looking rude in the shop windows
This world feels like heaven Amen the lord know
Jesus come on guys please us
You're the birds and were the geezers
Imagine if guys took pride all the time
Before they had sex waxed there scrotum line
And girls walk around with moustache's and shit
Unshaven legs, unshaved pits
ERGHHH-- Yeah we crossed the line
but men do this shit all the time
Now I'm a males worst nightmare say your prayers
Cos ah bitch with powers gives mans fears
So I'm here to make it known
Ladies we can run this globe
Say were the mayors and government
F-B-I- and the presidents
Hey we could run the whole of the C-I-A
Take over the streets like were G-I Jane
Imagine us on street patrol,
Woman having full control
No more labours, males give birth
And time of the month don't affect us---
So ladies stand up firm, (Firm)
Come on its our turn. (Turn)
To flip reverse this universe
