2For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult; And they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3Thy take crafty counsel against thy people,
4They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5For they have consulted together with one consent; Against thee do they make a covenant:
6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre:
8Assyria also is joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)
9Do thou unto them as unto Midian,
10Who perished at Endor,
11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; Yea, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna;
12Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession
13O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind.
14As the fire that burneth the forest,
15So pursue them with thy tempest,
16Fill their faces with confusion,
17Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; Yea, let them be confounded and perish;
18That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Yahweh,
