Psalms Chapter 83

83Keep not you silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God.

²For, see, your enemies make a tumult: and they that hate you have lifted up the head.

³They have taken crafty counsel against your people, and consulted against your hidden ones.

⁴They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

⁵For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against you:

⁶The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

⁷Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

⁸Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.

⁹Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

¹⁰Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

¹¹Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yes, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

¹²Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

¹³O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

¹⁴As the fire burns a wood, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire;

¹⁵So persecute them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.

¹⁶Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek your name, O LORD.

¹⁷Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yes, let them be put to shame, and perish:

¹⁸That men may know that you, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, are the most high over all the earth.
