| 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 Endor: 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.
