AB - Psalms - 83

83:1  O God, who shall be compared to You? Be not silent, neither be still, O God.

83:2  For behold, Your enemies have made a noise; and they that hate You have lifted up the head.

83:3  Against Your people they have craftily imagined a device, and have taken counsel against Your saints.

83:4  They have said, Come, and let us utterly destroy them out of the nation; and let the name of Israel be remembered no more.

83:5  For they have taken counsel together with one consent; they have made a confederacy against You;

83:6  even the tents of the Edomites, and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;

83:7  Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines also, with them that dwell at Tyre.

83:8  Yea, Assyria too has come with them; they have become a help to the children of Lot. Pause.

83:9  Do to them as to Midian, and to Sisera; as to Jabin at the Brook of Kishon.

83:10  They were utterly destroyed at Endor; they became as dung for the earth.

83:11  Make their princes as Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna; even all their princes,

83:12  who said, let us take to ourselves the altar of God as an inheritance.

83:13  O my God, make them as a wheel, as stubble before the face of the wind.

83:14  As fire which shall burn up the wood, as the flame may consume the mountains;

83:15  so shall You persecute them with Your tempest, and trouble them in Your anger.

83:16  Fill their faces with dishonor; so shall they seek Your name, O Lord.

83:17  Let them be ashamed and troubled forevermore; yea, let them be confounded and destroyed.

83:18  And let them know that Your name is Lord; that You alone are Most High over all the earth.
