- 1
A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
- 2
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
- 3
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
- 4
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.
- 5
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
- 6
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
- 7
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
- 8
Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
- 9
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
- 10
Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
- 11
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
- 12
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
- 13
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
- 14
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
- 15
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
- 16
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
- 17
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
- 18
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
