83:1
|
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
|
|
83:2
|
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
|
|
83:3
|
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
|
|
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.
|
|
83:5
|
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
|
|
83:6
|
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
|
|
83:7
|
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
|
|
83:8
|
Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
|
|
83:9
|
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
|
|
83:10
|
Which perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.
|
|
83:11
|
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
|
|
83:12
|
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
|
|
83:13
|
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
|
|
83:14
|
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
|
|
83:15
|
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
|
|
83:16
|
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
|
|
83:17
|
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
|
|
83:18
|
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
