Psalms 83: (YLT)
|
1) A Song, -- A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.
|
2) For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have lifted up the head,
|
3) Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult against Thy hidden ones.
|
4) They have said, 'Come, And we cut them off from [being] a nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'
|
5) For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a covenant they make,
|
6) Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
|
7) Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of Tyre,
|
8) Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to sons of Lot. Selah.
|
9) Do to them as [to] Midian, As [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin, at the stream Kishon.
|
10) They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the ground!
|
11) Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes,
|
12) Who have said, 'Let us occupy for ourselves The comely places of God.'
|
13) O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.
|
14) As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,
|
15) So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.
|
16) Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Thy name, O Jehovah.
|
17) They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.
|
18) And they know that Thou -- (Thy name [is] Jehovah -- by Thyself,) [Art] the Most High over all the earth!
