83
1 A SONG. A PSALM OF ASAPH. O God, let there be no silence to You, || Do not be silent, nor be quiet, O God. 2 For behold, Your enemies roar, || And those hating You have lifted up the head, 3 They take crafty counsel against Your people, || And consult against Your hidden ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and we cut them off from [being] a nation, || And the name of Israel is not remembered anymore.” 5 For they consulted in heart together, || They make a covenant against You, 6 Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes, 7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre, 8 Asshur is also joined with them, || They have been an arm to sons of Lot. Selah. 9 Do to them as Midian, || As Sisera, as Jabin, at the Brook of Kishon. 10 They were destroyed at Endor, || They were dung for the ground! 11 Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, || And as Zebah and Zalmunna—all their princes, 12 Who have said, “Let us occupy the pastures of God for ourselves.” 13 O my God, make them as a rolling thing, || As stubble before wind. 14 As a fire burns a forest, || And as a flame sets hills on fire, 15 So You pursue them with Your whirlwind, || And trouble them with Your windstorm. 16 Fill their faces [with] shame, || And they seek Your Name, O YHWH. 17 They are ashamed and troubled forever, || Indeed, they are confounded and lost. 18 And they know that You—Your Name [is] YHWH—By Yourself [are] the Most High over all the earth!
