Psalms 83

Keep not thou asilence, 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 acut 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 atabernacles 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 aSisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
 10 Which perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.
 11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as aZebah, and as Zalmunna:
 12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the ahouses of God in possession.
 13 O my God, make them like a awheel; as the bstubble before the wind.
 14 As the fire burneth a awood, 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 aperish:
 18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is aJehovah, art the most bhigh over all the earth.
