Psalms 83

A song. A Psalm of Asaph.

1O GodH430, be notH408 silentH1824; be notH408 speechlessH2790;1be notH408 stillH8252, O GodH410.2SeeH2009 howH3588 Your enemiesH341 rageH1993,how Your foesH8130 have rearedH5375 their headsH7218.3With cunningH6191 they schemeH5475 againstH5921 Your peopleH5971and conspireH3289 againstH5921 those You cherishH6845,4sayingH559, “ComeH1980, let us erase themH3582 as a nationH1471;may the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478 be rememberedH2142 noH3808 moreH5750.”

5ForH3588 with one mindH3820 they plotH3289 togetherH3162;they formH3772 an allianceH1285 against YouH5921—6the tentsH168 of EdomH123 and the IshmaelitesH3459,of MoabH4124 and the HagritesH1905,7of GebalH1381, AmmonH5983, and AmalekH6002,of PhilistiaH6429 withH5973 the peopleH3427 of TyreH6865.8EvenH1571 AssyriaH804 has joinedH3867 themH5973,lendingH1961 strengthH2220 to the sonsH1121 of LotH3876.SelahH55429DoH6213 to them as You did to MidianH4080,as to SiseraH5516 and JabinH2985 at the RiverH5158 KishonH7028,10who perishedH8045 at EndorH5874and becameH1961 like dungH1828 on the groundH127.11MakeH7896 their noblesH5081 like OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062,and allH3605 their princesH5257 like ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759,12whoH834 saidH559, “Let us possessH3423 for ourselvesthe pasturesH4999 of GodH430.”

13Make themH7896 like tumbleweedH1534, O my GodH430,like chaffH7179 beforeH6440 the windH7307.14As fireH784 consumesH1197 a forestH3293,as a flameH3852 setsH3857 the mountains ablazeH2022,15soH3651 pursue themH7291 with Your tempestH5591,and terrify themH926 with Your stormH5492.16CoverH4390 their facesH6440 with shameH7036,that they may seekH1245 Your nameH8034, O LORDH3068.

17May they be ever ashamedH954 H5703 and terrifiedH926 ;may they perishH6 in disgraceH2659.18May they knowH3045 thatH3588 YouH859 aloneH905,whose nameH8034 is the LORDH3068,are Most HighH5945 overH5921 allH3605 the earthH776.
