Psalms - Chapter 83 - A Conservative Version
- O God, keep thou not silence. Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
- For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult, and those who hate thee have lifted up the head.
- They take crafty counsel against thy people, and consult together against thy hidden ones.
- 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.
- For they have consulted together with one consent. They make a covenant against thee:
- the tents of Edom, and the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
- Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre,
- Assyria also is joined with them; they have helped the sons of Lot. Selah.
- Do thou to them as to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon,
- who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
- Make their ranking men like Oreb and Zeeb, yea, all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna,
- who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession the habitations of God.
- O my God, make them like the whirling dust, as stubble before the wind,
- as the fire that burns the forest, and as the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
- So pursue them with thy tempest, and terrify them with thy storm.
- Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
- Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever. Yea, let them be confounded and perish,
- that they may know that thou alone, whose name is LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
