Psalms 83 · Read in context
God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
83:2For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
83:3They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
83:4“Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
83:5For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.
83:6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
83:7Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
83:8Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
83:9Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
83:10who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
83:11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
83:12who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
83:13My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.
83:14As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,
83:15so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.
83:16Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, LORD.
83:17Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
83:18that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
