Psalm 83

1. 1

   O God, do not be silent; *
   do not keep still nor hold your peace, O God;

2. 2

   For your enemies are in tumult, *
   and those who hate you have lifted up their heads.

3. 3

   They take secret counsel against your people *
   and plot against those whom you protect.

4. 4

   They have said, "Come, let us wipe them out from among the nations; *
   let the name of Israel be remembered no more."

5. 5

   They have conspired together; *
   they have made an alliance against you:

6. 6

   The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; *
   the Moabites and the Hagarenes;

7. 7

   Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; *
   the Philistines and those who dwell in Tyre.

8. 8

   The Assyrians also have joined them, *
   and have come to help the people of Lot.

9. 9

   Do to them as you did to Midian, *
   to Sisera, and to Jabin at the river of Kishon:

10. 10

    They were destroyed at Endor; *
    they became like dung upon the ground.

11. 11

    Make their leaders like Oreb and Zeëb, *
    and all their commanders like Zebah and Zalmunna,

12. 12

    Who said, "Let us take for ourselves *
    the fields of God as our possession."

13. 13

    O my God, make them like whirling dust *
    and like chaff before the wind;

14. 14

    Like fire that burns down a forest, *
    like the flame that sets mountains ablaze.

15. 15

    Drive them with your tempest *
    and terrify them with your storm;

16. 16

    Cover their faces with shame, O LORD, *
    that they may seek your Name.

17. 17

    Let them be disgraced and terrified for ever; *
    let them be put to confusion and perish.

18. 18

    Let them know that you, whose Name is YAHWEH, *
    you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
