|
1. O God, do not keep silence; do not hold your peace or be still, O God!
|
||
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
||
|
2. For behold, your enemies make an uproar; those who hate you have raised their heads.
|
||
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
||
|
3. They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against your treasured ones.
|
||
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
||
|
4. They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”
|
||
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
||
|
5. For they conspire with one accord; against you they make a covenant—
|
||
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
||
|
6. the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
|
||
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
||
|
7. Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
|
||
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
||
|
8. Asshur also has joined them; they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah

|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
||
|
9. Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
|
||
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
||
|
10. who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground.
|
||
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
||
|
11. Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
|
||
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
||
|
12. who said, “Let us take possession for ourselves of the pastures of God.”
|
||
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
||
|
13. O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind.
|
||
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
||
|
14. As fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,
|
||
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
||
|
15. so may you pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane!
|
||
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
||
|
16. Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O LORD.
|
||
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
||
|
17. Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace,
|
||
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
||
|
18. that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
