Psalms Chapter 83 (ESV)

undefined O God, do not keep silence; do not hold your peace or be still, O God!
undefined For behold, your enemies make an uproar; those who hate you have raised their heads.
undefined They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against your treasured ones.
undefined They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”
undefined For they conspire with one accord; against you they make a covenant —
undefined the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
undefined Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
undefined Asshur also has joined them; they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah
undefined Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
undefined who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground.
undefined Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
undefined who said, “Let us take possession for ourselves of the pastures of God.”
undefined O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind.
undefined As fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,
undefined so may you pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane!
undefined Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O LORD.
undefined Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace,
undefined that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
