Psalm 83
1 Keep not
thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not
still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they
that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people,
and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from
being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no
more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent:
they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of
Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with
the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen
the children of Lot. Selah.
9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera,
as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for
the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea,
all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of
God in possession.
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble
before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame
setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them
afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek
thy name, O Lord.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever;
yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is
JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
