2 \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.
