\83:1\A song, or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. |
3 |
\83:2\For lo, thy enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. |
4 |
\83:3\They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. |
5 |
\83:4\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. |
6 |
\83:5\For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee, |
7 |
\83:6\The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; |
8 |
\83:7\Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; |
9 |
\83:8\Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah. |
10 |
\83:9\Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison: |
11 |
\83:10\Who perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth. |
12 |
\83:11\Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yes, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna: |
13 |
\83:12\Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession. |
14 |
\83:13\O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind. |
15 |
\83:14\As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire; |
16 |
\83:15\So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm. |
17 |
\83:16\Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD. |
18 |
\83:17\Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yes, let them be put to shame, and perish: |
19 |
\83:18\That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth. |
