Psalm 83
Jubilee Bible 2000
A Song or Psalm of Asaph.
1 ¶ Do not keep silence, O God; do not hold thy peace, and do not be still, O God.
2 For, behold, thine enemies make a tumult, and those that hate thee have lifted up their head.
3 They have taken prudent counsel in secret against thy people and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come and let us cut them off from being a people that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 Therefore they have consulted together with one consent; they are confederate against thee:
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; of Moab and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they are an arm unto the sons of Lot. Selah.
9 ¶ Do unto them as unto the Midianites, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison,
10 who perished at Endor; they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make them and their captains like Oreb and like Zeeb; all their princes as Zebah and as Zalmunna:
12 Who have said, Let us inherit for ourselves the habitations of God.
13 O my God, make them like a whirlwind, as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burns a wood and as the flame sets the mountains on fire
15 so persecute them with thy tempest and make them afraid with thy whirlwind.
16 Fill their faces with shame that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and perish
18 That they may know that thou, whose name alone is LORD, art the most high over all the earth.

Psalm 83[a]
A song. A psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, do not remain silent;(A)
do not turn a deaf ear,
do not stand aloof, O God.
2 See how your enemies growl,(B)
how your foes rear their heads.(C)
3 With cunning they conspire(D) against your people;
they plot against those you cherish.(E)
4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy(F) them as a nation,(G)
so that Israel’s name is remembered(H) no more.”
5 With one mind they plot together;(I)
they form an alliance against you—
6 the tents of Edom(J) and the Ishmaelites,
of Moab(K) and the Hagrites,(L)
7 Byblos,(M) Ammon(N) and Amalek,(O)
Philistia,(P) with the people of Tyre.(Q)
8 Even Assyria(R) has joined them
to reinforce Lot’s descendants.[b](S)
9 Do to them as you did to Midian,(T)
as you did to Sisera(U) and Jabin(V) at the river Kishon,(W)
10 who perished at Endor(X)
and became like dung(Y) on the ground.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,(Z)
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,(AA)
12 who said, “Let us take possession(AB)
of the pasturelands of God.”
