Psalms 83
God Implored to Confound His Enemies.
A Song, a Psalm of Asaph.
1God, 1do not remain quiet; 2Do not be silent and, God, do not be still.2For behold, Your enemies 3make an uproar, And 4those who hate You have 56exalted themselves.3They 7make shrewd plans against Your people, And 8conspire together against 9Your 10treasured ones.4They have said, “Come, and 11let’s wipe them out 12as a nation, So that the 13name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”5For they have 1415conspired together with one mind; They make a covenant against You:6The tents of 16Edom and the 17Ishmaelites, 18Moab and the 19Hagrites;720Gebal, 21Ammon, and 22Amalek, 23Philistia with the inhabitants of 24Tyre;825Assyria also has joined them; They have become 26a help to the 27children of Lot. Selah
9Deal with them 28as with Midian, As 29with Sisera and Jabin at the river of Kishon,10Who were destroyed at En-dor, Who 30became like dung for the ground.11Make their nobles like 31Oreb and Zeeb, And all their leaders like 32Zebah and Zalmunna,12Who said, “33Let’s possess for ourselves The 34pastures of God.”
13My God, make them like the 3536whirling dust, Like 37chaff before the wind.14Like 38fire that burns the forest, And like a flame that 39sets the mountains on fire,15So pursue them 40with Your heavy gale, And terrify them with Your storm.1641Fill their faces with dishonor, So that they will seek Your name, Lord.17May they be 42ashamed and dismayed forever, And may they be humiliated and perish,18So that they will 43know that 44You alone, whose name is the Lord, Are the 45Most High over all the earth.
