PSALMS | CHAPTER 83

PSALMS | CHAPTER 83
1     ¶ A Song or Psalm of Asaph. 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.
