1 A song, [or] Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

2 \\83:1\\A song, or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

3 \\83:2\\For lo, thy enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

4 \\83:3\\They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

5 \\83:4\\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.

6 \\83:5\\For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee,

7 \\83:6\\The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

8 \\83:7\\Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

9 \\83:8\\Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.

10 \\83:9\\Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

11 \\83:10\\Who perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.

12 \\83:11\\Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yes, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

13 \\83:12\\Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

14 \\83:13\\O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

15 \\83:14\\As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

16 \\83:15\\So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

17 \\83:16\\Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.

18 \\83:17\\Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yes, let them be put to shame, and perish:

19 \\83:18\\That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
