King James VersionPsalms83

Psalms

1 Keep not thou si­lence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine en­e­mies make a tu­mult: and they that hate thee have lift­ed up the head.
3 They have tak­en crafty coun­sel against thy peo­ple, and con­sult­ed against thy hid­den ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a na­tion; that the name of Is­rael may be no more in re­mem­brance.
5 For they have con­sult­ed to­geth­er with one con­sent: they are con­fed­er­ate against thee:
6 The taber­na­cles of Edom, and the Ish­maelites; of Moab, and the Ha­garenes;
7 Gebal, and Am­mon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the in­hab­i­tants of Tyre;
8 As­sur also is joined with them: they have holpen the chil­dren of Lot. Se­lah.
9 Do unto them as unto the Mid­i­an­ites; as to Sis­era, as to Jabin, at the brook of Ki­son:
10 Which per­ished at En­dor: they be­came as dung for the earth.
11 Make their no­bles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Ze­bah, and as Zal­munna:
12 Who said, Let us take to our­selves the hous­es of God in pos­ses­sion.
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stub­ble be­fore the wind.
14 As the fire bur­neth a wood, and as the flame set­teth the moun­tains on fire;
15 So per­se­cute them with thy tem­pest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be con­found­ed and trou­bled for ev­er; yea, let them be put to shame, and per­ish:
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JE­HO­VAH, art the most high over all the earth.
