1A Song7892 or Psalm4210 of Asaph623. Keep not thou silence1824, O God430: hold not thy peace2790, and be not still8252, O God410.
2For, lo, thine enemies341 make a tumult1993: and they that hate8130 thee have lifted up5375 the head7218.
3They have taken crafty6191 counsel5475 against thy people5971, and consulted3289 against thy hidden ones6845.
4They have said559, Come3212, and let us cut them off3582 from being a nation1471; that the name8034 of Israel3478 may be no more in remembrance2142.
5For they have consulted3289 together3162 with one consent3820: they are3772 confederate1285 against thee:
6The tabernacles168 of Edom123, and the Ishmaelites3459; of Moab4124, and the Hagarenes1905;
7Gebal1381, and Ammon5983, and Amalek6002; the Philistines6429 with the inhabitants3427 of Tyre6865;
8Assur804 also is joined3867 with them: they have holpen2220 the children1121 of Lot3876. Selah5542.
9Do6213 unto them as unto the Midianites4080; as to Sisera5516, as to Jabin2985, at the brook5158 of Kison7028:
10Which perished8045 at Endor5874: they became as dung1828 for the earth127.
11Make7896 their nobles5081 like Oreb6159, and like Zeeb2062: yea, all their princes5257 as Zebah2078, and as Zalmunna6759:
12Who said559, Let us take to ourselves the houses4999 of God430 in possession3423.
13O my God430, make7896 them like a wheel1534; as the stubble7179 before6440 the wind7307.
14As the fire784 burneth1197 a wood3293, and as the flame3852 setteth3857 the mountains2022 on fire3857;
15So persecute7291 them with thy tempest5591, and make them afraid926 with thy storm5492.
16Fill4390 their faces6440 with shame7036; that they may seek1245 thy name8034, O LORD3068.
17Let them be confounded954 and troubled926 for ever5703; yea, let them be put to shame2659, and perish6:
18That men may know3045 that thou, whose name8034 alone is JEHOVAH3068, art the most high5945 over all the earth776.
