The Psalms



Psalm 83


O God, do not keep silence; do not hold your peace or be still, O God!


Even now your enemies are in tumult; those who hate you have raised their heads.


They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against those you protect.


They say, "Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more."


They conspire with one accord; against you they make a covenant--

who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground.

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


who said, "Let us take the pastures of God for our own possession."

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

so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane.


Fill their faces with shame, so that they may seek your name, O LORD.

Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace.

Let them know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
