- Chapter 83 -

Be not silent, O God

1
A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, do not be silent! Do not ignore us and remain unmoved, God.
2
Look, your enemies are making a commotion, and those who hate you have raised their heads.
3
They conspire against your people and plan together against your protected ones.
4
They have said, “Come, and let us destroy them as a nation. Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”
5
They have schemed together with one strategy; against you they have made an alliance.
6
This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, and the people of Moab and the Hagrites, who plot together with
7
Gebal, Ammon, Amalek; it also includes Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
8
Assyria also is allied with them; they are helping the descendants of Lot. Selah.
9
Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
10
They perished at Endor and became like manure for the earth.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
12
They said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13
My God, make them like the whirling dust, like chaff before the wind,
14
like the fire that burns the forest, and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
15
Chase them with your strong wind, and terrify them with your windstorm.
16
Fill their faces with shame so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
17
May they be put to shame and be terrified forever; may they perish in disgrace.
18
Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.

Be not silent, O God

1
God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
2
For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
3
They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
4
“Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
5
For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.
6
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
7
Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8
Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
9
Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
10
who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12
who said, “Let’s take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
13
My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.
14
As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,
15
so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.
16
Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, LORD.
17
Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
18
that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.
