CPDV - Psalms - 82

82:1  A Canticle Psalm of Asaph.

82:2  O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.

82:3  For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.

82:4  They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.

82:5  They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”

82:6  For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:

82:7  the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,

82:8  and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.

82:9  For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.

82:10  Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.

82:11  They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.

82:12  Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders

82:13  who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”

82:14  My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.

82:15  Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.

82:16  So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.

82:17  Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.

82:18  Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.

82:19  And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.
