83:1  A Song. A Psalm of Asaph. Do not keep Your silence, O God; do not hold Your peace or be still, O God.
83:2  For, look, Your enemies make an uproar, and those who hate You have lifted up their heads.
83:3  They have given crafty counsel against Your people, and have consulted against Your treasured 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 remembered.”
83:5  For they have conspired together; they make a covenant against You—
83:6  the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, even Moab and the Hagrites;
83:7  Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
83:8  Assyria also is joined with them, they are the strength of the descendants of Lot. Selah
83:9  Do to them as You did to the Midianites, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river of Kishon,
83:10  who perished at Endor; they became as dung for the ground.
83:11  Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; yes, all their princes as Zebah and Zalmunna,
83:12  who said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God as a possession.”
83:13  O my God, make them like a tumbleweed, as stubble before the wind.
83:14  As fire burns a forest, and as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,
83:15  so pursue them with Your storm, and make them afraid with Your hurricane.
83:16  Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O Lord.
83:17  Let them be confounded and troubled forever; yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
83:18  that they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth.
