The Book of Psalms



Psalm 83


Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God!


For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head.


They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.


They have said, "Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more."


For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You:

Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,


Who perished at Endor, Who became as refuse on the earth.

Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,


Who said, "Let us take for ourselves The pastures of God for a possession."

O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind!

So pursue them with Your tempest, And frighten them with Your storm.


Fill their faces with shame, That they may seek Your name, O LORD.

Let them be confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,

That men may know that You, whose name alone is the LORD, Are the Most High over all the earth.
