Psalms 83

1O God, keep not thou silence: Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.● 2For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult; And they that hate thee have lifted up the head.● 3Thy take crafty counsel against thy people, And consult together against thy hidden ones.● 4They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.● 5For they have consulted together with one consent; Against thee do they make a covenant:● 6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagarenes;● 7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre:● 8Assyria also is joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah● 9Do thou unto them as unto Midian, As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;● 10Who perished at Endor, Who became as dung for the earth.● 11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; Yea, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna;● 12Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession The habitations of God.● 13O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind.● 14As the fire that burneth the forest, And as the flame that setteth the mountains on fire,● 15So pursue them with thy tempest, And terrify them with thy storm.● 16Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.● 17Let them be put to shame and dismayed for ever; Yea, let them be confounded and perish;● 18That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth. Psalm 84 For the Chief Musician; set to the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.●
