Psalms 83

"

For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

"
"

They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

"
"

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.

"
"

For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

"
"

The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

"
"

Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

"
"

Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

"
"

Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

"
"

Which perished at En–dor: they became as dung for the earth.

"
"

Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

"
"

Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

"
"

O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

"
"

As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

"
"

So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

"
"

Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O Lord.

"
"

Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:

"
"

That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Jehovah, art the most high over all the earth.

"
