←Prev   Psalms 83 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


83:1  O God, do not keep quiet. Do not be quiet, O God, and do not hold Your peace.
83:2  For, look, those who hate You are making much noise. Those who fight against You have honored themselves.
83:3  They make bad plans against Your people. They plan against those You care for.
83:4  They say, “Come, let us destroy them as a nation. Let the name of Israel be remembered no longer.”
83:5  For they plan together with one mind. They make an agreement against You:
83:6  The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagarites;
83:7  Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with those who live in Tyre;
83:8  Assyria has joined them also. They help the children of Lot.
83:9  Do to them as You did to Midian, and to Sisera and Jabin at the river of Kishon.
83:10  They were destroyed at Endor. They were spread over the field.
83:11  Make their respected men like Oreb and Zeeb. Make their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
83:12  who said, “Let us take for ourselves the fields of God.”
83:13  O my God, make them like dust turning in the wind, like parts of the grass that have no worth and are blown away.
83:14  As the fire that burns up the trees and spreads over the mountains,
83:15  so go behind them with Your storm. Make them afraid with Your storm.
83:16  Fill their faces with shame, so they will look to Your name, O Lord.
83:17  Let them be ashamed and afraid forever. Let them be put to shame and lost.
83:18  Then they may know that You alone, Whose name is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth.
