| | 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, "and let us 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 us take possession Of God's pasturelands."
| |
| | 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, Terrify them with your storm.
| |
| | 16 | Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek your name, Yahweh.
| |
| | 17 | Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;
| |
| | 18 | That they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, Are the Most High over all the earth. Psalm 84 For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.
