83:1 {A Song; a Psalm of Asaph.} O God, keep not silence; hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God: 83:2 For behold, thine enemies make a tumult; and they that hate thee lift up the head. 83:3 They take crafty counsel against thy people, and consult against thy hidden ones: 83:4 They say, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, and let the name of Israel be mentioned no more. 83:5 For they have consulted together with one heart: they have made an alliance together against thee. 83:6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagarites; 83:7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia, with the inhabitants of Tyre; 83:8 Asshur also is joined with them: they are an arm to the sons of Lot. Selah. 83:9 Do unto them as to Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the torrent of Kishon: 83:10 Who were destroyed at Endor; they became as dung for the ground. 83:11 Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb; and all their chiefs as Zebah and as Zalmunna. 83:12 For they have said, Let us take to ourselves God's dwelling-places in possession. 83:13 O my God, make them like a whirling thing, like stubble before the wind. 83:14 As fire burneth a forest, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire, 83:15 So pursue them with thy tempest, and terrify them with thy whirlwind. 83:16 Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek thy name, O Jehovah. 83:17 Let them be put to shame and be dismayed for ever, and let them be confounded and perish: 83:18 That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, art the Most High over all the earth. 83:19 {To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.} How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!
